Helen Anahita Wilson is an Oram Award-winning composer, sound artist, pianist, improviser, and practice-based researcher at SOAS University of London. Her compositional practice brings together her research in South Asian musics, especially South Indian rhythmic theories, with expressions of biomedical processes, interpretations of plant biodata, and experiments in sonic life writing: how to share biographical stories through sound.
She has toured extensively throughout Europe and India and works across a broad spectrum of disciplines from solo piano projects to live extended radio arts and plant-derived installations. Latest commissions include Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival, Brighton Dome and Festival, Bloomsbury Festival, and her work has recently been featured on BBC Radio 4's Today, BBC 6Music, and New Scientist.
