Starrie Williamson aka Selekta Stjarna, began formal classical music training at the age of 9 which continued until the age of 18. At the age of 15, she started to attend the weekly night club events in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, called XLR8 from 1989-1992, and developed an interest in dance, DJing, collecting records, and all of the other aspects of electronic music and dance culture. This exposure led to becoming very involved in the Northeast U.S. rave scene. In 1996, She began to DJ around various clubs and house parties around the Philadelphia and New Jersey areas playing Acid Techno, Electro and Experimental Downtempo. Eventually in 1998, Starrie graduated school with a degree in Multimedia Art and moved to Central Virginia where she started the University of Virginia's first radio show dedicated to electro and techno music. During this time period she started producing electronic music and DJing in the both the Charlottesville area and Charlotte, NC.
In 2003, she met Morphogenetic and moved to Washington, D.C. to study Interactive Design at the Art Institute and joined the label Fundamental Bass Intelligence as co-partner and lead designer. That same year, Starrie flew down to Brazil to be the first female and first electro DJ to play the Liquid Sky Ecosystem Festival, a festival dedicated to helping fulfill the ideas and aspirations of the visionary Buckminster Fuller.
Not only is Stjarna the original founder of FBI's radio show "The Binary Mix Sessions", which has broadcast out of The University of Virginia, Breaks FM, and Global Funk Radio, but she is also currently working with Morphogenetic on their duo project "Metatron", where they will be remixing a track by Kosmozo for their debut release on FBI due out sometime in 2008. Recently she did some spoken word for the Dark Vektor vs. Morphogenetic track "Music of the Spheres" released on the last Guilty Compilation on Dona-Li Records ( www.dona-li.com ).
