Lauri des Marais (day-mah-RAY), compositions are primarily synthesized streams between shape, mood and pattern-texture construction - she refers to this as 'Classical Technology', which creates 'Stories in Sound'. Des Marais began playing piano in 1994, and eventually began recording with Musique concrete, synthesizer and sampler. For live performance, she developed a form of movement she calls 'Movement So Still With Sound' (incorporating themes of traditional Eastern movement to assist in translating subtler dimensional qualities of music). She practices 'Deep Listening' and has performed with composer Pauline Oliveros. Her repertoire includes a performance with Oliveros at Plan B Evolving Arts (in celebration of Deep Listening) and at the 1999 premier of the Big Sur Experimental Music Festival, hosted by the Henry Miller Library. Other artists she has worked with include Mission of Burma's Roger Miller, who can be minimally and distinctly heard in Silence on her first album, 'Stimuli: Stories in Sound, Vol. 1'.
