About / Bio
Martin Back is a composer, artist, and musician. He composes primarily for unusual instrumentation and fixed media which endeavor to define 'music' as a potential for the creation of novel situations for propagating, or investigating, sound worlds. He is also engaged in object-making with his ongoing series of assemblage works, collectively titled 'Objemlature.' He has created works for single and multi-channel video and live video performance, which have been exhibited in the United States and Canada. As a performing musician he has been active in a number of groups, including The Transducers, The Sound Painting Orchestra of New Mexico, the Ancestral Groan Liberation Orchestra, F/M, and cult psych-metal outfit Noceros/Gnossurrus. He has released collections of recordings on Modisti, Just Not Normal, and PandaFuzz. Martin received his undergraduate degree from the Moving Image Arts department at the College of Santa Fe where his mentors included Gene Youngblood and David Stout. He has studied privately with composer and sound artist David Dunn. He is currently pursuing an MFA in new media at the University of North Texas.
