Bob Bellerue / halfnormal is a noise artist, theater designer, audio engineer, performer and writer from Portland of late. My work utilizes electronics and custom programming for live performance, sound installation, and prepared ambient (public & private) field recordings. With a background in punk / acid rock, Balinese and Javanese gamelan, and Tibetan Buddhism, I'm interested in the various ways that extreme sonic experiences affect awareness and identity, and the supple techniques used to focus and modulate energy. I've created original sound scores for dozens of performance art, dance, theater and film pieces, and perform regularly as a solo artist and as part of KILT, Dead Wolf Black, and Purple Pansy. My work has been presented in Indonesia, Spain, and across the United States, including the Yogyakarta Gamelan Festival, Centre de Cultura Contemporànea de Barcelona, Beyond Music Sound Festival, CEAIT Festival, Olympia Experimental Music Festival, PDX Noise Festival, Highways Performance Space, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, Living Arts of Tulsa New Genre Festival, Dairy Center for the Arts, Crazyspace, DIVA, monkeymania, 7Hz, the Il Corral, the Smell, KXLU, KFJC, KSPC, KGNU, KDVS, Stanford University, UC San Diego, UC Los Angeles, Naropa University (BA 1995), and the California Institute of the Arts (MFA 2003).
