Alan S. Tofighi

Alan S. Tofighi is an interdisciplinary artist from Valencia California whose work in the field of the composer/performer lies within an interest in free improvisation, concepts of collaboration, analog/electronic processes, and histories of audio culture/technology. Conceptualization, research, psychoacoustics, extended techniques, interaction, and listening techniques are often used to facilitate said works. Tofighi co-founded and maintained the [l=Nouroboros Industrial Concern] Imprint with [a=Nouroboros] from 2007-2017, and managed the [a=NASA Space Universe] from 2011-2016. As of 2017 Tofighi began operating the [l= Flat Ledge] Imprint. Tofighi is also known for the cycle of works called the "Critical Bands" which zero in on aspects of avant-garde and popular music subcultures and the spaces that exist on the fringes of composition, and performance art.
