Exploring the boundaries of contemporary music, Gadi Sassoon is pushing the sonic and technological frontiers of electronic music and relationships between recorded music, installations, and music creation.
Using sophisticated DIY and experimental systems to create deep listening experiences rich in texture and emotion, Sassoon’s work can be found capturing the hearts of fans at electronic festivals, research institutions, and art galleries worldwide (ie. Sonar Festival Barcelona, EMPAC, United Nations, TEDx).
About the Workshop Host
Gadi Sassoon is a classically trained composer and transmedia electronic artist from Milan whose work spans traditional music releases and live installations.
2025 will see the release of Sassoon’s third album Modes of Vibration which is a continuation of Sasson’s exploration of the intersection of music and technology, following on from his previous albums Chaos & Order (ASIP 2022) and Multiverse (ASIP, 2020) which were the result of research with physicists and mathematicians, exploring the interplay between sound synthesis, live orchestras, and algorithmically modelled ‘impossible instruments’.
Outside of performing, Sassoon also composes soundtracks for film companies, collaborates on works with artists at major and independent labels (ASIP, Island, Warner, Universal, Ninja Tune), and is published by Just Isn’t Music, Ninja Tune’s publishing arm.
This workshop-host is part of the “Wilding AI Open Lab - Exploring New Artistic Avenues in AI and Spatial Sound”
