A BIT ABOUT MEMy name is María Castro, I'm a game audio artist, music composer and sound designer currently based in Spain. My work and interests concerning to creation are main focused between sound, science, art and technology dialogue and development. At University Bachelor and Masters degree, I was trained as a contemporary and electroacoustic music composer which taught me not only to compose music, but to think and be conscious of the huge amount of extra-musical elements that influence and define a sound creation. This has allowed me to learn and work closely with other knowledge fields like programming, game design, animation and visual arts, understanding their functions, needs and how I can dialogue with them through music and sound. During the last 5 years, the main focus of my career has been to participate in interdisciplinary projects around electronic arts and videogame audio design, interactive sound installations, VR and AR experiences, sound design, digital instrument lutherie, academic research and Livecoding. |
