BILL VINE is currently researching for his composition-based PhD in Electroacoustic and Sonic Arts. He designs and creates his own electronic musical instruments and is interested in the various ways in which they can be re-used and reappropriated by both himself and others. He composes works for traditional acoustic instruments with electronics and creates large-scale interactive sound/video installation pieces which often deal with the ways in which performers and audience interact with each other and with the music being created. Bill is also the song-writer, lyricist, singer, guitarist and programmer for the experimental/post rock band Collider.
