Eleni Ikoniadou is a researcher and educator specialising in sound and voice, from the standpoint of fugitivity.
She was Reader in Digital Culture and Sonic Arts at the Royal College of Art until September 2024, where she ran Fugitive Voices—a series of conversations with guest artists and theorists, such as Banu Cennetoğlu, Elizabeth Price, Hypatia Vourloumis, Season Butler, Lee Gamble and Jenna Sutela, airing monthly on Stegi Radio. She relocated to Athens in 2025 and took on a new post in Sound Studies and Sound Art at the fine art school of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
Some of her latest collaborative projects include The Passing, a site-specific sound installation at the castle of Ioannina, drawing on Epirotic laments to compose a generative and continuously changing piece; and Future Chorus, a vinyl album based on a collection of sound and spoken word combined with machine learning processes, featuring sound works by AGF, Chino Amobi, Lafawndah & Trustfall, Harrga, and Savvas Metaxas. For this project she co-founded MAENADS, a growing collective and platform for sonic, visual, performative and text-based projects. As member of the art group AUDINT, she co-edited the anthology Unsound: Undead (Urbanomic 2019) and produced a series of exhibitions under the same name. She is founder and co-editor of the Media Philosophy Series (Rowman & Littlefield) and author of the monograph The Rhythmic Event: Art, Media and the Sonic (The MIT Press 2014).
Her work has been presented, performed and exhibited at media art festivals, such as CTM Berlin, Unsound Krakow, Tate Modern London, Mira Festival Barcelona, Bristol New Music, Abandon Normal Devices UK, and art centres such as the Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) London, Somerset House London, Arebyte Gallery London, Spike Island Bristol, and Onassis Stegi Athens. She has taught, delivered papers and keynotes at Harvard University, Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, The New Centre for Research & Practice New York, Oxford University, Sandberg Instituut, University of Glasgow, Bergen Centre for Electronic Arts, University of Washington and others, now more than ever, in the hope of sharing tools with students and colleagues on how to resist Western dominant narratives and speak with/ listen to other voices.
