Patrick Liddell	 

Patrick Liddell recently received this Doctor of Music at Northwestern
University in Music Composition. His primary instructors have been Jay Alan
Yim (Northwestern University, Evanston IL), Chris Mercer (Northwestern),
Peter McIlwain (Monash University, Melbourne, Australia), and Steve
Heinemann (Bradley University, Peoria IL). His music has been performed by
Function Ensemble (London, UK), Monash Gamelan Ensemble (Melbourne), pLAy
Ensemble (Los Angeles, CA), Vox Novus (NYC, NY), Third Coast Percussion
Ensemble (Chicago, IL), and many other chamber and popular groups. 

His art is a combination of music and video (video being the visual
counterpart to the temporality of sound), and in a postmodern idiom attempts
to combine popular, art, and world musics into a "unified disassociation".
His most recent project, Arrow To The Sun, is a multi-dimensional
fractal-art piece that fuses music, video, taste, touch, smell, and thought
to evoke an anti-narrative of spiritual enlightenment.
