About Paloma Kop
I am an experimental multimedia artist and ambient musician from Woodstock, New York, currently based in Brooklyn. My work often uses electronic media, from analog video and synthesizers to digital systems, as well as various physical materials and processes. I am especially interested in feedback loops, recursion, fluid dynamics, self-organizing and emergent structures, patterns in nature, psychedelia, and embodied sensory experience.
I received a BFA in Visual Arts and Computer Science from Purchase College in 2014, and an MFA in Electronic Integrated Arts at Alfred University in 2020 (my thesis can be found here), with independent studies in math and physics. I have shown work and performed regularly since about 2016 at spaces and events such as Ambient Church (NYC), Eastern Bloc (Montréal), /'fu:bar/ Festival (Zagreb), Maverick Concert Hall (Woodstock), and Ann Arbor Film Festival (Michigan).
Community and collaboration are very important to me. I helped create the online forum scanlines.xyz and I help run Phase Space, an a/v studio that hosts workshops and events in Brooklyn.
I am a practicioner of Buddhist meditation and yoga. I am currently training for a 200-hour yoga teaching certification.
