Anastasia Chernysheva (MA, University of Illinois) is a scholar and curator exploring the topics of experimental music and biofeedback art. Having a background in the history and philosophy of science, Anastasia attempts to reconcile the principles of the scientific method with the praxis of artistic expression. As a Research Fellow of the Gray Area, she’s been working on an inaugural event series introducing a newly established network of artists, researchers, and scholars exploring the intersection of biological data and artistic expression with particular emphasis on the sonic domain. As an Associate Researcher at UCLA Berry Gordy Music Industry Center, she continues researching the history of biofeedback therapy and artistic applications of the technique – particularly prominent in the Bay Area of the 1970s-90s.
