Nicholas Astill
I'm a composer and researcher based in Sydney. I write polystylistic instrumental and electronic music, fascinated by the alchemy of aesthetics in sound. Similarly, I research how seemingly disparate music aesthetics and ideas are related, as well as the cultural and sociological facets of music though that lens.
First Nations Experiences & Music Making
In this presentation, I outline my practice as a composer working across electronic, instrumental and spatial sound, and demonstrate some of my approaches to music making through recordings and examples. I then place my perspective alongside those of other First Nations composers I have spoken with in preparing this session and reflect on what an “authentic First Nations perspective” can mean. This is one composer’s account, offered as a way of thinking about the many perspectives teachers will meet.
