About
Born in Mexico City and based in Vienna, I am an electroacoustic composer and performer focused on spatial music, live electronics, and immersive sound diffusion. My practice blends analog and digital synthesis, real-time processing, ambisonics, binaural techniques, and large-scale multichannel systems to create expanded modes of listening.
Composition & Performance
My compositional and performance practice explores the tension between sound and perceptual space. I work with noise, massive textures, spectral processes, and strong sonic gestures. I often combine fixed media with live spatial diffusion and improvisation.
My practice stems from composition and close collaboration with instrumental performers. This foundation shapes my approach to form, gesture, and temporal structure in live electronics, improvisation, and spatial sound.
I create dark, loud, and highly contrasted sonic experiences. I pay close attention to detail and the physical quality of sound. Improvisation plays a central role in my performances, whether in solo contexts, through live processing and spatialisation of instrumental performers, or in dialogue with other electronic musicians within shared spatial setups.
A central element of my work is the Hybrid Audio Diffusion System (HADS), a performance and compositional framework I developed that combines open headphones and dense loudspeaker arrays simultaneously. This hybrid method creates perceptual ambiguities, making sound feel both intimate and internal yet physically expansive and distant.
My works have been presented internationally in acousmoniums, concert halls, public spaces, and festivals across Europe, North America, and Latin America.
Artistic Research
My research centers on electroacoustic composition and performance for spatial and hybrid diffusion systems, with particular attention to listening strategies, spatial form, and performative decision-making within complex sound environments.
I am pursuing a Doctor of Arts degree at Anton Bruckner University in Linz, Austria. My research examines compositional strategies for immersive and hybrid audio systems. It explores how perception, performance, and spatial dramaturgy interact in concert and performance-based contexts.
In parallel, I conduct artistic research at the National School of Cinematographic Arts (ENAC), UNAM, focusing on the relationship between spatial music and image within experimental cinematographic practices. Two central questions guide this work: the tension between industry-standard spatial audio systems such as Dolby Atmos and open, flexible frameworks like Ambisonics; and the reconfiguration of the classical cinematic dispositif through expanded visual projection spaces.
This line of inquiry moves beyond frontal, narrative-based cinema toward spatially distributed audiovisual experiences, where sound and image operate as structural and dramaturgical elements rather than illustrative layers.
Teaching & Education
eaching extends my artistic and research practice. I use practice-based, competency-oriented pedagogy to develop technical knowledge, artistic decision-making, and critical listening through creative projects.
At the Anton Bruckner University, I teach electroacoustic composition, analog & digital techniques, spatial audio, and music & image. I emphasize compositional thinking, system design, and performance practice in immersive audio contexts. At the National School of Cinematographic Arts (ENAC), UNAM, my teaching merges with research on spatial sound and image, experimental audiovisual forms, and non-canonical presentation formats.
Across both institutions, my teaching addresses the relationship between standardized production environments and open experimental systems, as well as the expansion of cinematic and musical space beyond frontal listening and viewing models.
I regularly lead international workshops and lectures on immersive audio, spatial composition, and hybrid performance systems.
