This exposition is in review and its share status is: visible to all.
In this exposition I’m showing you my journey for these past two years of investigating my artistic practice through the meeting of identity and aesthetics.
Due to my Iranian background, I have felt a need and curiosity to bring together my Iranian and European identities. This project is a dialogue between myself and music, encompassing sounds, arrangements, physical presence, materiality, technology, context, and politics.
By politics I mean; history, cultural appropriation, diversity, colonisation, beliefs, and the current needs of the western culture.
A project involving confrontations with habits, default parameters, and elements within digital audio workspaces, thereby incorporating scales.

This exposition is in progress and its share status is: visible to all.
In this exposition I will show various techniques in Santur and highlighting the unique sound characteristics within each. For this purpose, I will utilize the spectromorphological approach of describing and transcribing the sound objects, developed by Professor Lasse Thoresen.
I have incorporated all significant traditional techniques and also explored extended techniques on this instrument.
