Audrey Chen
's long-awaited new solo album
Runt Vigor
is an adventurous sonic exploration of the voice, cello and analog electronics. Chen began her relationship with sound through the cello and voice over 30 years ago and in the past 15 years, her predominant focus has been her solo work, joining together the extended and inherent vocabularies of the cello, voice and analog electronics (with all sounds created without electronic effect or enhancement other than amplification). More recently, she has begun to shift back towards the exploration of the voice as a primary instrument, delving even more deeply into her own version of narrative and non-linear storytelling. She derives her sound material in continuous process, championing the "in-between" and overlooked. Regardless of instrument, Chen's mode of experimentation touches both the abstractly beautiful and the aggressively unsettling, creating a kind of curiously imagined architecture, non-prosaic song or ritual that reaches beyond gravity or language. Recent projects, aside from performing solo, include her long running duo with
Phil Minton
, duos
Hiss & Viscera
with modular synth player
Richard Scott
,
Beam Splitter
with Norwegian trombonist
Henrik Munkeby Nørstebø
, and the "romantic noise duo"

(electronics/light projection). Past projects include work with German conceptual artist

, a duo with NYC abstract turntablist
