Mathoms (Matthew Tomkinson) is a writer, composer, and doctoral candidate in Theatre Studies at the University of British Columbia.
Working across a wide range of disciplines, including text, performance, installation, sound design, and new media, Matthew’s artistic practice shows a recurring interest in unruly eclecticism and constraint-based compositional approaches. His work explores the limit states of genre, texture, and technology, while testing the thresholds of sensory perception.
His debut audiovisual album as Mathoms, The Woe Trumpets, is out with Decaying Spheres, along with an accompanying film that has been presented at Sound Scene Festival (Washington, USA) and Chapeltown Picture House (Manchester, UK). Together with Andy Zuliani, Matthew also presents collaborative sound art under the name Magazinist.
