Eclectic noise artist “sinmantyx” (b. 1975) grew up in rural Minnesota as a half-crazed Lutheran zealot, studied music and physics as an undergraduate, discovered noise artists such as Noiseman433 and SICKNESS during her graduate work in applied physics in Illinois. She spent several years in Flint, Michigan before moving to Rochester, MN.

Her sounds vary greatly from harsh noise pieces such as “Crappyresistor” and “Simple Text”, to novel poetry and story treatments such as “Faith”, ‘Notyou” and (the infamous) “Walmart”, to rhythmic noise settings such as “Kitty” and “Techno”. Some of her pieces are also authentically experimental, such as “Stabilityx” which was one part of large installation work performed at Northern Illinois University.

She rarely plays live and exists, as a composer, primarily as an online entity.

She has been briefly involved with several collaborations including Will Soderberg, MOZ and Bipolar Joe. “Not you” was also chosen to anchor the “Mothers Against Noise” compilation.

Discography includes: “Back in the Day” (Minnesota), “In Partial Fulfillment…” (Illinois) and “New Folder” (Michigan). “Back in the Day” includes work created within the music department of Minnesota State University - Moorhead. “In Partial Fulfillment…” includes work created while pursuing a Master of Music at Northern Illinois University. “New Folder” includes works created while living in Michigan.

Sinmantyx has recently (in August of 2008) returned a key to the music department of Northern Illinois University, and in doing so, has officially been granted a Master of Music degree.

    I would have no issue with calling this music avant-garde, because the meaning of the term is wider than just one period in history where it was applied. Genres aren't much more than a casual way of grouping artists to me. Although, if this is what they're accepting for Master of Music degrees now, I suppose it's not groundbreaking any more!

Emotional attachment to your art?

23 Feb 2012 | from antigroupieproject.wordpress.com

This was the question posed by Emily Rose. That is a strange question for me because most of my art is digital.  It doesn’t exist as an object, so the idea that I would be protecting it from harm or holding onto it for dear life doesn’t make sense.  …
