The Bionic Harpist & Techno Para Dos AVCA/QC+MX
As The Bionic Harpist, Alex Tibbitts presents us with a symbiotic dance between her instrument, the human and the digital, constructing a contemporary metaphor made even more relevant by the fact that half of his body contains metal. Tibbitts comes from the classical and orchestral world, and is also a member of the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and Technology (CIRMMT) at McGill University since 2016.
Techno para Dos is the experimental electronic project of Raúl Villamil, active since 2015 with constant solo releases and a long list of artists with whom he has shared the stage such as Argenis Brito, Camille Mandoki, Ellen Allien and Mircohom. He has also made music for contemporary dance and is co-founder of the VAA label, one of the bastions of downtempo, IDM and experimental pop in Mexico City. In 2022 he received the EMS (Elektronmusikon) experimental sound residency in Stockholm, Sweden.
Alex Tibbitts, who started the Bionic Harpist after a collaborative research project with musician, technologist and digital luthier John Sullivan, developed during their MUTEK-Avatar residency in August 2020.
