Weston Olencki is a South Carolina-born musician working at the intersections of improvisation, contemporary composition & extended instrumental performance, new media technologies, and noise-based practices. His work is concerned with material conditions sound and its diffusion, using experientially-driven structures to examine sonic relationships with metaphor/signification, informational complexity, technological mediation, psycho-acoustic perception, and geographical identity.
