Barry L. Roshto (*1958, Louisiana, USA) lives in Bonn where he teaches piano and composition at the municipal music conservatory. His academic training includes a B.A. in the performing arts (piano and voice) and a B.Mus. in composition earned in the US, as well as studies in musicology and phonetics at the University in Bonn, and finally a M.Mus. (with Distinction) in Composing for New Media from the London College of Music and Media. In addition to his pedagogical activities, which also include projects in the area of new media, he composes music for concert and film, produces audio-visual installations and animations that are shown internationally. Since the summer of 2009 he has been working in a collaborative project with Ursel Quint as the Media Art Duo Snowkrash, which concerns itself primarily with the relationship of image and sound.
His recent work shows a growing interest in electromagnetic phenomenon. He scans the urban environment for interesting electromagnetic fields which can be sonified and subsequently used as material in his audio-visual performances.
