Di Mainstone
Artist & Movician, Di Mainstone creates sonic sculptures, that extend from the body and trigger sound via movement… The New York Times has featured Di Mainstone as one of the “new generation visionaries” of the international digital arts scene. A global ambassador for audio brand Sennheiser, Di Mainstone is artist in residence at Queen Mary University London where she collaborates with researchers from the Centre for Digital Music and Media Arts & Technology group, to develop new musical instruments that are inspired by the body, transforming physical movement into sound via digital technology. Di has invented the term “Movician” to describe the player of these instruments – a hybrid artist who explores and composes sound through movement. In this conversation, Di will be talking about her passion for fashion, technology, human harps & her project ‘Time Bascule,’ for Tower Bridge.
