Music: Colin Labadie

Colin Labadie is a Waterloo based composer and performer whose output includes concert works, sound art, improvisation, and interdisciplinary collaboration. His wide rage of influences inspires him to create music ranging from austere and pattern-oriented to spastic and loud. He often uses machines to realize his work, and has built or modified many electronic instruments that emit odd noises he finds interesting. He is currently pursuing a Doctoral degree in Composition from the University of Alberta with support from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and The Canada Council for the Arts.
