Noémi Büchi

Organization1 listing

About: Noémi Büchi is a Swiss-French composer and sound artist working between contemporary electronic and electroacoustic composition and performance. She combines electroacoustic orchestral abstraction, analogue synthesis and raw noise into expansive, finely detailed sound architectures. Alongside concerts, she creates audiovisual works and commissions for film, dance, installation and fashion. Her work has been presented at festivals such as CTM, MUTEK, Ars Electronica, L.E.V. and Nuits Sonores, as well as at the Museo Nacional Reina Sofía in Madrid and the Pavillon Le Corbusier in Zurich. She studied musicology, German literature/linguistics and electroacoustic composition. After six years of artistic research centred on the cycle “Matter”, she has moved away from accumulation towards temporality and reduction, increasingly developing long-form electroacoustic compositions in close collaboration with instrumentalists. She lives and works between Basel, Zurich and Paris.
