André Castro

Born 1983. Sound artist from Lisbon graduated in Sonic Arts at the the Middlesex University and currently studying at the Networked Media MA program from the Piet Zwart Institute. His works, although often different in form, have in common the employment and exploration of sound and technology. A great part of these projects has been created in collaboration with designers, visual artists and choreographers. In recent years he has developed an interest for the potential and imaginary of the radio. For this medium, he has created the sound installation Radio Fragments, and the radiophonic documentaries Subterrâneos de Lisboa, and Boat People. Since 2009 has begun to explore the world of electronics. Such incursions have resulted in the Tactile Noise Project, which has materialized itself into electronic instruments and workshops. Lives in Rotterdam.
