Her work has been discussed in magazines like the New Yorker and Pitchfork, and art and technology blogs like Creators Project and Creative Applications.
A frequent collaborator, she has created a range of boundary-pushing musical installations and experiments in New York City, working on projects by musicians like Björk, St. Vincent, Julianna Barwick and Little Dragon.
