Elainie's music focuses on the essence of sound and suspension of time, conveying different emotions and taking listeners on "sonic journeys". The sounds she uses for her music are varied-- sometimes they are simple things like the human voice, cars, wind chimes, or water. Other times her sound material is less obvious, like crunching bits of branches, walking through snow, or pebbles shuffling in water. Elainie holds degrees from Northern Illinois University, the University of North Texas, and The University of Birmingham where she studied electroacoustic composition and sound diffusion with Jonty Harrison. Elainie has received commissions from ASCAP/SEAMUS, ICMA, La Muse en Circuit (Paris), New Adventures in Sound Art (Toronto), and Rèseaux (Montreal), and awards/recognition from CIMESP, Russolo, and IMEB among others. Her music has been presented at conferences, concerts, and festivals internationally, including guest invitations to the GRM (Paris), Rien a Voir (Montreal), lespace du son festival (Brussels), June in Buffalo, and Sonorities (SARC Centre, Belfast). Elainie's music is available on the Empreintes DIGITALes, StudioPANaroma, La Muse en Circuit, and SEAMUS labels, and is included on the CD accompaniment to New Adventures in Sound Arts The Radio Art Companion. Elainie teaches music technology and composition at Bowling Green State University in Ohio where she serves as Coordinator of Music Technology and participates as a Faculty Research Scholar in BGSU's New Media and Emerging Technology Center.
Keep on rocking, Dr. L. You're the reason I ever got into electronic music and interactive media.
That John Cage class was like no other-- glad to see the college recognizes how important you are too.
Hey there - I arrive around the 24th or so - not exactly sure yet. Will let you know, of course! I'll really be settled in and 'present' by the 29th - will probably call you around then!
