Rodrigo Romero-Flores (b. 1977) is a chilean poet, sound composer and visual artist, based in Northern Ireland.

 

He studied Hispanic Language and Literature at the Universidad de Chile and Field Recording: Soundscape Composition at Goldsmiths, University of London.

 

Their artistic practice relates to the sonic exploration of memory; the contrast between the sublime and the everyday; the sense of loss in a highly technological world and the tension between the present and the absent.

​

Their sonic proposal is characterised by the complexity of the use of hardware in real time,  to give shape to ambient soundscapes with a strong presence of drone, samples from different cultural sources, sounds produced by natural phenomena and human voice.

​

His current research is concerned with the limits of memory from a spatio-temporal perspective, and the technological mechanisms that allow us to reactivate and re-imagine small fragments of emotional reality.
