Brittany Green, guest panelist (2020)
Brittany J. Green is a North Carolina-based composer, creative, and educator. Described as “cinematic in the best sense” and “searing” (Chicago Classical Review), Brittany’s music is centered around facilitating collaborative, intimate musical spaces that ignite visceral responses. The intersection between sound, movement, and text serves as the focal point of these musical spaces, often questioning and redefining the relationships between these three elements.
Her research and creative interests include mapping aural gestures to gestural recognition technology and exploring virtual reality platforms as a tool for experiencing immersive, intimate musical moments. Her music has been featured at concerts and festivals throughout the United States and Canada, including the SCI National Conference, NYCEMF, SPLICE Institute, West Fork New Music Festival, and EABD Festival. She has presented research at the North Carolina Music Educators Association Conference, East Carolina University’s Research and Creative Arts Week and the Intersection@ Art and Science Symposium on gestural technology and K-12 electronic music education. From 2018-2019, Brittany served as composer-in-residence for the PCS/ECU Young Composers Project. Brittany is currently pursing a PhD in composition at Duke University.
