Composer, Media Artist

Olivia Block (c)Ryan Lowry


Olivia Block is a Chicago-based composer and media artist. Her compositions combine field recordings, chamber instruments, electronic textures, and more. She also creates multimedia installations and performances using field recordings, found sounds from microcassettes, video, and 35mm slides. Her current work reflects her interest in site-specific themes, ethnographic sounds, architecture, and materials from the 1950s through the 1990s. Her compositions have been published by And/Oar, Cut, Erstwhile, Glistening Examples, NNA, and Sedimental, among others. She has created site-specific multi-speaker installations for the Sanitorium in Sokolowsko, Poland, the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park, Chicago, and the Olympic Games in Turin, Italy, among others.
