Nigel is an educator, composer and sound artist from Singapore who works conceptually with various mediums bearing the weight of unorthodox structure with the blend of structured aberrant sound. He explores the basis of life through different styles and history bearing in mind the importance of the process within layers of texture. Influenced by experimentalist of film and music from both the eastern and western cultures, his works churned out are intertwined randomly to reflect change which in turn motivates a purpose.

“If you develop an ear for sounds that are musical it is like developing an ego. You begin to refuse sounds that are not musical and that way cut yourself off from a good deal of experience.”                                                                                                                   – John Cage
