A/B Smith

A/B Smith (UK)  is a music producer, hacker, coder, educator, data scientist, VJ, DJ and immersive experience artist operating in a space that weaves spatial sound, technology, politics and electronic club culture, into art. Born in Leigh-on-sea (b.1979), after studying in Bradford University, and completing an MA at Brighton University he now has settled by the coast in Brighton and Hove.

He has released music under various guises from the found-sound audio collage contained in the recording of ‘The Average Man’, to the underground club sounds released on various imprints between the late 90’s to the present. His previous artistic output includes exhibiting alongside the Sound Art Brighton Collective at Brighton CCA; creating an impossible musical score for the imagination released on Matthew Herbert’s Accidental editions, to an interactive ‘Sonic Pong’ installation on the massive 4DSound system at Muziekgebouw aan het IJ, during the ADE Festival in Amsterdam.
