Koel Sen

I am a Mumbai based filmmaker and multi-media artist. I finished my training at the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) and La Fémis, Paris in 2016. Apart from usung analog film, video and digital media I like to work with Resolume Arena, Touch Designer aided by MIDI controllers. Till now I have mostly performed with live musicians & sound artists. I use single and multiple screen projections. I project content which is a mix of archival and self-shot footage with intricate geometrical patterns and shapes, all manipulated live and in real time via MIDI.

As an artist my approach is very intuitive, where I design my work based on certain parameters. Sometimes the work grows into something completely new and different, totally unexpected. I enjoy these nuances that occur in my art through algorithmic processes.

In the last year 2019, I have been part of a panel on the new trends in visual technology at the Disrupt Music & Arts Festival in 2019. I have also worked with the live visuals team at the Magnetic Fields International Music & Arts Festival and performed across all their venues and projecting my vision by mapping on the architecture of the Alsisar palace in Rajasthan. I am a part of Todh-Machines, a unique collaboration between Berlin based synth artist Todh Teri and Mumbai based United Machines. I have also performed live video for Reproduce Listening-Room Sessions (an alternate art & music space) in Bombay and Kolkata. I regularly perform at club spaces across the country. I am also associated with multiple organisations working to promote the roles of women in the electronic music landscape in India.
