Peter Bell

Based in Birmingham (UK), Peter is a composer/performer whose diverse creative practice spans multiple disciplines and approaches. From electronics and concert music through to experimental performance and community theatre. He primarily composes by hand using a drawing tablet and Adobe Photoshop to create uniquely stylised digital scores.
 
“My work often has an observational quality. I am drawn to the things around me, nature, people, experiences, and I use my work to point at them (a ’la John Baldessari). When writing, I often use multiple layers of small interfering processes or procedures which I lovingly call “isoprocesses” (derived from isorhythm). These isoprocesses imbue my music with a sense of revolving internal logic, but also a feeling of drift.”
