Biography

Louise Harris is an electronic and audiovisual composer, and Professor of Audiovisual Composition at The University of Glasgow. She specialises in the creation and exploration of audiovisual relationships utilising electronic music, recorded sound and computer-generated visual environments.  Louise’s work encompasses fixed media, live performance and large-scale installation pieces, with a recent research strand specifically addressing Expanded Audiovisual Formats (EAF). Her work has been performed and exhibited nationally and internationally, including recent commissions from Cryptic and The Lighthouse, Sanctuary and the Plenty? Festival. 

She recently completed work on Composing Audiovisually, a monograph on Audiovisual Composition, which was published by Routledge in July 2021.
