A artist I decided to talk about Joel Hunt. He is a composer that uses algorithmic computer music and electroacoustic in his performances. He is famous all over the world and his compositions have been performed at music festivals including the Conferences in (Athens, Greece), New York City Electronic Music Festival, Electronic Music Midwest (Kansas City), Primavera Festival of Contemporary Arts and Digital Media (Santa Barbara), and the California Electronic Music Ex-change Concert Series (Los Angeles). Joel is a Lectur-er in Music and Digital Media, Arts, and Technology at Penn State Behrend. He uses his phone which is attached to the instrument to create unique sounds in his performances. It is very unique and I didn’t think that one could use their phone as well as the instrument together to make music. It is very impressive and it is continuing to gain attraction, making it one of the main things that got him famous.
