Jenn Grossman is a sound/experiential media artist concerned with the psycho-spatial possibilities of time-based media, exploring displaced realities, staged synchronicity, cyclical time, collective memory, embodiment/disembodiment, perceptual affect, and transcendent experience. Her work has taken the form of modular sound sculptures/installations, multichannel sound works, light/projection events, ambient music/soundscapes, video, and public interventions. It's been shown in arts venues such as the Museum of the Moving Image, Black Mountain College Museum, the New York Transit Museum, MoMA PS1 Printshop, EMPAC, at conferences such as the Megapolis Audio Festival in Philadelphia, PA, the Global Composition conference in Dieberg, Germany, the Sound Signatures Conference in Amsterdam, NE, and the Women in Sound/Women on Sound Conference in Lancaster, UK. She's held residencies at I-Park and Harvestworks. She organizes/curates art events and concerts supporting underrepresented women in experimental media through her group WISE: Women Innovating Sound Experience in NYC.
