NICOLAS COLLINS

An evening of electro-acoustic works and "hardware-hacked"
instrumentation by CCM Composer-in-Residence Nic Collins and
Mills student composers. Featured pieces by Collins include "Pea
Soup," performed by local bassist George Cremaschi, and "The
Talking Cure." Born and raised in New York, Mr. Collins studied
composition with Alvin Lucier at Wesleyan University and worked
for many years with legendary composer/instrumentalist David
Tudor. As a composer he helped pioneer the use of microcomputers
in live performance, and has made extensive use of "home-made"
electronic circuitry, radio, found sound material, and
transformed musical instruments. From 1992-1995 he was Artistic
Director of Stichting STEIM (Amsterdam) and in 1996-1997 a DAAD
composer-in-residence in Berlin. In 1999 he joined the faculty
of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago as the chair of
the sound department.
