instruments. This brought collaborations with such artists as Alan Licht,

music festivals in Europe and North America, including Music Unlimited in
Wels, Austria; the City of Women festival, Slovenia; Vasistas Festival of
Multimedia, Montreal; Roulette Festival of Mixology, NYC, and at Documenta
X.

IKUE MORI, one of New York's most exciting improvisers and composers, has
played with musicians such as Fred Frith, John Zorn, Zeena Parkins and Jim
Staley. Ikue Mori has developed a personal and innovative technique of
playing samplers triggered by adapted drum machines and incorporated laptop
computer programming to broaden her scope of musical expression. Her most
recent albums are Labyrinth, solo computer (Tzadik 2001), One Hundred
Aspects of the Moon (Tzadik 2000), Painted Desert (Avant) with guitarists
Marc Ribot and Robert Quine, Death Praxis (Nonsequitor) with vocalist Tenko,
and Vibraslaps (Rec Rec) with singer Catherine Jauniaux. Other recent
projects include the collaboration Mephista (Tzadik, 2002) with Sylvie
Courvoisier and Susie Ibarra.  She has also recorded as a member of the
groups Fukuko, Tohban Djan, and The Worlds Of Love (with David Garland and
Cinnie Cole). Mori was a member of the legendary late '70s "No Wave" group
DNA (with Arto Lindsay) who can be heard on albums on Avant and American
Clave, and on the Brian Eno-produced No New York compilation on Antilles.
Ikue has given workshops at the International Percussion Festival in Berlin,
and performed at NY Symphony Space and Derek Baily's Company Week in London.
