Misha Douglas MacLaren is an artist and composer working on the material conditions of listening. He creates and contextualises artefacts, formats and systems through which music becomes something you can hold, and composes for them. Trained as a music technologist, he works across electronic acousmatic composition, spatial- & multichannel installation, and hardware and design, from Max MSP and multichannel engineering, to audio-mastering, vinyl- and music-production.

Misha’s works are only completed with the final act of participation of the audience or listener. Then, will this non-linearity settle into the final cyclical life of the work. Influenced by the different angles, situations, surrounding, space and people interacting with every work that is shaped, affected and molded by the context at hand.
