FRANK V DWYER

composer

ABOUT

I am an emerging composer and sound designer living and working on Gadigal land. I trained at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, where I was mentored by electronic music composers such as Ben Carey and Daniel Blinkhorn. My current practice centres around the creation of electro-acoustic soundscapes and installation-based work. I also compose for chamber ensembles, choir, electroacoustic and electronic ensembles, and I do sound design and composition for theatre productions.

As a composer, my work is typically rooted in a sense of place. I am drawn to the ambient sounds of natural phenomena and the built environment, drawing inspiration from the sound-making systems that are inherent to these settings. I strip back the sounds of the everyday world that surrounds us, recontextualising them as textural, evolving and evocative soundscapes.

My work has been supported by organisations such as the EDGE Greenway Festival, Shopfront Arts Co-op, Brand X, PACT, APAM, and Merrigong.
