Phillip Pietruschka studied electro-acoustic composition at RMIT, attaining Honours in 2003. Pietruschka’s music takes cues from elements of electro-acoustic and avant-garde classical music. Composing with studio production techniques inspired by Pierre Henry, Luigi Nono and Ennio Morricone, he regularly works with some of Melbourne’s finest improvising musicians to weave unique sonic tapestries. Pietruschka’s music has frequently appeared as soundtracks to video and installation work by artists including Cassandra Tytler, Geoff Robinson, and Shaun Yue. Selected electro-acoustic presentations include Liquid Architecture Festival of Sound Arts, DeScore 04 at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image, Gertrude St Contemporary Art Spaces, Sydney Opera House Art Gallery on behalf of DLux Media Arts and Variable Resistance at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Pietruschka recently completed a tour of Canada as part of a collaborative sound art project called Telephone. He is presently touring Australia with the Back to Back Theatre company as the Audio Operator.
