Glyn Maier is a sound artist and field recordist living in Pisgah Forest, North Carolina. Non-city outdoor spaces are essential to Maier's practice. With a formal education in physics and music composition, Maier's preoccupations with natural objects, landscapes, and their social histories guide his recordings, which are then integrated into ambient electronic works utilizing organic rhythms and complex timbres. Maier's abstract synthesis work is deeply informed by sound design, but his larger focus is on the agency of both machine and environment. "
