Inspired by a novel titled \"Vurt\" by UK sci-fi author Jeff Noon, Sigman's compositional process and development of electronic materials for the cycle was shaped by technologically forward-looking concerns in Noon's work. With a unique background in music composition + technology, cognitive science, and data science, Sigman has been active internationally as an interdisciplinary composer, technologist, researcher, educator, concert\/event producer, and performer. Currently, he is a Music Software Engineer at Amper Music, a leading AI-driven music software company whose tools enable clients to compose custom music for their media projects in seconds. His compositions have been featured a number of commercial releases, including portrait recordings on the Carrier and New Focus labels. Sigman has presented and published extensively on a broad range of research topics, including innovative auditory warning design, sound information retrieval, perception, and classification, approaches to creative audiovisual media integration, and robot opera.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Vurtruvurt for violin and live electronics \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Atrocity exhibition for ensemble and live electronics \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Down the bottle for bass flute, live electronics and sound installation \u003cbr\u003e1.4 jardin des supplices for bass flute, violin, cello and live electronics \u003cbr\u003e1.5 DlXsf for 9 players\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
