Biography
Teerath Majumder is a Bangladeshi composer and technologist who works in interactive and immersive media, computer music, and sound design. He questions socio-sonic dynamics that are often taken for granted and reimagines relationships between participants through technological mediation. Most recently, he produced聽Do Not Feed the Robots (2025) where audience members collaborated with an ensemble of human performers and automatons via physical interfaces to give rise to an hour-long soundscape.聽In 2022, he produced Space Within, where audience members engaged with a similar participatory context. He is also involved in the project Dysnomia with New York bassist James Ilgenfritz where he extends the sonic palette of a contrabass using tactile transducers, live processing and feedback, and synthesis aided by machine learning. His collaboration with Nicole Mitchell resulted in the immersive sound installation Mothership Calling (2021) that was exhibited at the Oakland Museum of California. He composed and designed sound for Qianru Li鈥檚 immersive multimedia piece A Shot in the Dark (2023) that explored Asian-American identity in the face of anti-Black police violence with reference to the shooting of Akai Gurley in 2014. His compositions have been performed by Hub New Music, Transient Canvas, and London Firebird Orchestra among other ensembles. He frequently collaborates with dancers and filmmakers in various capacities and produces genre-bending electronic music for his studio projects.
