Joseph Hyde’s background is as a musician and composer, working in various areas but in the late 90s, and for a period working with BEAST in Birmingham, settling on electroacoustic music, with or without live instruments. Whilst music and sound remain at the core of his practice, collaboration has become a key concern, particularly in the field of dance. Here he works both as a composer and with video, interactive systems and telepresence on large-scale projects such as me and my shadow and danceroom Spectroscopy. His solo work has broadened in scope to incorporate these elements, and he has made several audiovisual “visual music” works. He has also explored this field in writings, recently completing a project on the unique musical notation of animation pioneer Oskar Fischinger. Hyde also works as an academic, as Professor of Music at Bath Spa University. Since 2009 he has run a symposium on visual music at the university, Seeing Sound.
