Ian Mikyska
Ian Mikyska is a Czechoslovak composer who generally works on the edges of sound: he makes installations, walks, videos, texts, as well as sound in collaboration with other artists. He works for theatre, film, dance and radio. In 2016, he published his first book, Partitury pro čtenáře (Scores for Readers). In 2017, he prepared two "sensory strolls"; installations with book-form guides focusing on sensory perception, one in the Convent of St. Agnes in Prague (National Gallery) and one in the abandoned Automatic Mills in Pardubice (Offcity). He co-founded the multimedia improvisation ensemble Stratocluster, who have recently published their newest CD, Éternagy. Ian is also active as a translator from Czech into English.
