Mitchell Herrmann is a composer and video artist studying at Oberlin College and
Conservatory. Although his primary focus is on acousmatic music, Herrmann's
previous work has included experimental film, installations, and acoustic music. His
compositions have been particularly influenced by his study of phenomenology and
embodied cognition. His work has been accepted into festivals around the world
including the International Computer Music Conference, Seoul International
Computer Music Festival, New York City Electroacoustic Music Festival, Toronto
International Electroacoustic Symposium, and Electronic Music Midwest. Recently,
his piece Kettledrum Organ was selected for the 2014 SEAMUS Miniatures album. In
October of 2014, he was the youngest composer accepted to study with Jonty
Harrison in residence at the Atlantic Center for the Arts. Herrmann has studied
composition under Peter Swendsen, Tom Lopez, and Josh Levine, and participated in
master classes or lectures by George Lewis, Robert Normandeau, Pierre Jodlowski,
and Bertrand Dubedout.
