Biography: Golan Levin is a New York based artist and composer who develops artifacts and experiences that explore supple new modes of audiovisual expression. His work has focused on the design of systems for the creation and performance of simultaneous image and sound, as part of a more general examination of communications protocols for individual engagement and non-verbal dialogue. Most recently, Levin presented the Dialtones Telesymphony (2001), a concert wholly performed through the choreographed ringing of the audience's own mobile phones. Levin was granted an Award of Distinction in the Prix Ars Electronica for his Audiovisual Environment Suite (2000) interactive software and its accompanying audiovisual performance, Scribble (2000). Levin received undergraduate and graduate degrees from the MIT Media Laboratory, where he studied with John Maeda in the Aesthetics and Computation Group.

Exhibition History: He will present the Mesa di Voce performance in Austria during Ars Electronica 2003.
