Martin Rumori is a sound artist and performer, based in Graz. His installation works are often based on field recordings or on narrative residues of everyday life and are intended to provoke reflections on spatial listening constellations. He performs on both digital and analogue instruments with especial focuses on DIY electronics, and on their ephemeral instantiations in improvisation. He also likes to incorporate the spoken word into space in his performances, including through literary texts.
Martin Rumori studied musicology and computer science in Berlin and holds a doctorate in Sound and Music Computing from the University of Music and Performing Arts in Graz. He was a lecturer in sound art at the Academy of Media Arts in Cologne and has also been a researcher on various projects at the Institute of Electronic Music and Acoustics (IEM) in Graz and at the Basel Academy of Art and Design.
He currently works as a professional audio software developer for the company sonible in Graz and teaches at the University of Applied Sciences in St Pölten. He is also a practitioner of the Grinberg body work method.
