§ 00 · Biography
Iván Cebrián (Cuenca, 1980) is a musician and sound artist. Together with the visual artist Coco Moya he forms the music and art collective Menhir, with which he develops site-specific electronic pieces in dialogue with the territory: interactive sound installations where technology and the organic merge and where the landscape—or the context—becomes the score. He composes and creates sound spaces for contemporary dance companies, and runs his own record production while also producing other musicians. He holds a degree in Psychology from the UNED and a postgraduate qualification in Music Therapy from the Universidad de Alcalá de Henares. The Menhir project—which uses analogue synthesizers and acoustic instruments and draws on the notion of geopuncture, music as a "virtual menhir" that alters and transforms the territory—was recognised with the LABjoven_Los Bragales Prize (Los Bragales Collection and LABoral Centro de Arte).
