Her work is deeply exploratory, blending improvisation and other sonic flows with multiple approaches to field recording. Through these immersive sonic drifts, she attunes to and reveals entanglements across various sonic spectrums, scales and temporalities of the spaces around us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her practice takes shape through live performances, album releases, multi-channel installations, community-driven projects, workshops, academic and creative publications. Her work has been broadcasted on BBC Radio 3, Resonance FM, NTS Radio and radio stations across Europe and North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her previous album\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cronicaelectronica.org\/223\/\"><em>Loop.
