Lisa Conway-Bühler is a Swiss-Canadian composer, sound artist, songwriter, researcher, recordist, and mixer. Her recordings have been described as "ethereal, minimalist, experimental, unnerving…and downright elegant" (AUX): in her sound worlds, analog synthesizers, drum machines, and electronics often live alongside string arrangements and woodwinds. An artist who continually tries to push herself into the unfamiliar, her multifaceted CV includes original scores and songs for documentaries, short films, and theatre productions, site-specific multi-channel sound and light installations, collaborations with contemporary dancers and performance artists, and an array of renowned creative residencies.
