Bolivian-born, American-based composer, producer and writer whose works explore the historic roots of queer identity in conjunction with South American spirituality. Using a vast range of artistic expression – from poetry, traditional Aymara theatre and futurist narratives to DJ-sets and electronic composition – she creates an epic and deeply conceptual sonic collage that synthesizes Latin genres with dense percussion, mutant samples, delicate synth lines and club music structures. At Rewire 2018, Elysia Crampton presents her new theatrical performance Red Clouds, an extraterrestrial, sci-fi drama that plays out in the depths of outer space and is centred around gas clouds of an entity entitled Artificial Stupidity.
