Sound Design

Ian Douglas-Moore’s music uses guitar, electronics, and field recordings to explore the textures of resonant sounds as they engage with acoustic space. Treating an acoustic guitar as a tone generator, his recent improvisations with Eric Wong, Dominic Coles, Patrick Holmes, and others, blur the boundaries between electronic and acoustic music. His project with Aaron Snyder, Church Car, traverses minimalist psychedelic rock, text-sound composition, and music from imagined microtonal folk traditions. These musical experiences inform his sound design for artists like Moriah Evans, Annie Dorsen, and Lauren Bakst. In 2024 he completed an MFA in Sonic Arts at Brooklyn College.
