Derry-based Hong Kong audio artist also known as Quantum Foam

Intrigued by topics on hauntology, she has previously focused on capturing sonic environments with a temporal and fleeting nature—such as exhibition spaces, vacant and derelict buildings. Tying electroacoustic practices with New Materialist theories, her current work aims to explore and manipulate these found sounds with machine-listening, revealing non-anthropocentric viewpoints, and creating site-responsive music. Vibrant matters are sequenced, stretched, and shaped into drone, serialist and sometimes techno genres. She is a visiting artist at Sonic Arts Research Centre since 2019 and has taken on diverse roles in performing, composing and curating sound-art exhibitions in Belfast and Derry.

Her work appears in the exhibition Distant Arcades: https://virtual.mutek.org/ and at Turn It Up: The Amplify Digital Arts Initiative showcase: https://montreal.mutek.org/en/shows/2020/presentations-turn-it-up-the-amplify-digital-arts-initiative-showcase/
