  • Bio

    Natasha Anderson is a Melbourne musician and installation artist who creates works in which the source of sounds, images and gestures - whether electronic, instrumental or bodily - become tangled and confused. .. .. Variously using the contrabass recorder, electronics and mixed media she is interested in creating works that foreground the musician as a framed and gendered bodily presence. Rapidly shifting between extreme frequencies, between digital and acoustic sound, and abject and processed gestures, she creates for the audience multiple and conflicting points of focus. .. .. Working across Australasia and Europe as a performer, composer, sound designer and installation artist, Natasha’s recent endeavors include composition and sound design for Sydney Theatre Company’s The Year of Magical Thinking (dir. Cate Blanchett); composition and sound installation for Carriagework’s site specific The Stirring (prod. De Quincey Co); performances at the French festivals Musique Action and Festival de Musiques Innovatrices; and gigs at the MIBEM08, Liquid Architecture, NowNow, Melbourne International Arts Festival and Alt.Music, Auckland. .. .. She plays regularly with well-known Australian improvisers Amanda Stewart, Anthony Pateras, Robin Fox and Jim Denley and has a solo release on Cajid Media, Spore. .. .................... ..................

    …what strikes most in Spore is the wealth of extended techniques the flautist has developed. One thinks of John Butcher and Axel Dörner's microscopic investigation of their instruments (sax and trumpet, respectively), but Anderson's soundworld seems even more alien than theirs … You could listen again and again to Spore, trying to figure out what she does and how she does it, or you could simply accept Anderson's soundworld for the enigma that it is and let yourself be transported, menaced and ravished by it. A very surprising and innovative album. ..All Music Guide,February 2007.. .. “…a dominating presence in performance. Posed behind what resembles some bastardised periscope, her precise jolts, staps and finger taps evidence her strategic exploitation of the instrument's potential…leaving in its wake an explosive spark and splutter of real­time processed audio…the instrument and its devolved signal interlocking in a twisted and tightly coiling feedback loop.…claustrophobic, with an intimacy that's almost overwhelming…a sense of intense, even uncomfortable closeness” ..The Wire, February 2007.. ..
