About Me

Betsey Biggs is a composer and visual artist working with sound, video, interactivity, installation and performance. Her work aims to engage the audience, to expose the beautiful in the mundane, and to explore the tension between spontaneity and form, and has been seen and heard at venues including Issue Project Room, Experimental Intermedia, Sundance Film Festival, The Berkeley Art Museum, and MASSMoCA.

Biggs studied literature and music at Colorado College and Mills College, and is currently completing her Ph.D. at Princeton University, where she is researching narrative and participation in sound art.

Upcoming projects include a collaboration with flautist Margaret Lancaster, a video performance at the Schenectady Museum, and a continuing series of soundtracks for cinematic experiences in real places, Park Bench Cinema.
