Recently I was invited to write a couple of pieces for Unsung Stories: Women at Columbia's Computer Music Center podcast, which will be released very soon – really cool content!

Unsung Stories: Women at Columbia's Computer Music Center is a three-part project that focuses on women who have studied and worked at the renowned Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center (now named the Computer Music Center).

Please check this link to learn more about the 3-event project.

This podcast series features the stories of some of the composers of marginalized identities, including women composers of color, who undertook significant work at the Columbia Computer Music Center at different points in time. In conversation with historical musicologists, musicologists, and fellow composers, they explore how their daily experiences at this particular institution were impacted by systemic racism and its intersections with gender and sexuality within the field of electronic music. Unsung Stories: Women at Columbia's CMC is Produced by my mentor Zosha Di Castri, Ellie Hisama, and Paola Cossermelli Messina, with editing by David Adamcyk.

The theme, loop and out created by yours truly and mastered by Murat Çolak.
