Merche Blasco — Fauna

Merche Blasco is a multimedia artist and composer based between Berlin and Barcelona. Central to her practice is the building of intriguing technological assemblages that are designed to be imprecise, thus allowing for embodied and imperfect kinds of electroacoustic composition to take place. Blasco brings a playful, alien excitement to sonic materials.

At SONIC TERRITORIES Festival 2025 she presents "Fauna" a live improvisation with a set of custom-made instruments/artifacts used to process field recordings, incorporating body movements and the live exploration of intricate material textures. Through these devices, Blasco attempts to establish a more horizontal relationship with audio technologies, distancing herself from parameters of precision, power, and control. She instead explores collaborative spaces where these instruments render audible unheard energetic forces.
