– Stanier Black-Five (New Zealand)
Stanier Black-Five is a sound artist and writer based in Christchurch, New Zealand, who for the last two decades has been actively involved with experimental music and sound art in the UK, Europe and New Zealand.
Her audio work is largely based on the manipulation of her own environmental recordings, as well as found sounds, which she uses to create dense soundscapes that use sources such as mesmerising aircraft drones to the pounding rhythms of trains and more recently the sounds of the earthquakes that have shaken her city.
Also a respected wine writer – see joburzynska.com – her interest in sound and taste has converged in a number of multi-sensory projects.
