Alyssa Moxley has created radio and installation art, engineered studio recordings, played music, and written journalism and poetry. In London she was an ethnomusicologist and has recorded bards in several Central Asian countries. She is especially interested in the developments of observation and surveillance technologies because of their dichotic power of expanding both communication and control. These technological extensions of the body permeate the world invisibly, binding humans to each other and the natural world through webs of knowledge, fields of interaction, and clouds of mass communication. The power of sound to bring together multiple people in a community of wordless shared experience is shifted by the combination of live performed sound and recording technologies.

Using multiple voices, microphone techniques, field recording, music, sound design, and speaker placement, she plays with memory as both a personal and shared medium. She is currently based in Chicago studying Sound at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
