Martine H. Crispo is an audio and new media artist. Her audio art practice is built around performance, radio creation and sound installation. Her work draws mostly upon the relationship between light and sound. Specifically, she explores the matter and energy of sound through waves of light. The artist creates devices that rely on visualized sound to replicate the frequencies of light as frequencies of sound. Her work has been shown in Canada, in the US and in Europe. She lives in Gatineau.
