George Rahi (b 1987) is a composer, performer, and installation artist based in Vancouver. He uses self-created & altered instruments as a method of exploring new relationships between sound, space, technology, and listening. Drawn to the tactile, mechanical, and sculptural realms of sound, his artistic works are frequently expressed as large-scale installations, electro-acoustic compositions, and works for radio, theatre, and public spaces, notably for the Canadian Music Centre, Fusebox Festival (Austin), Jogjakarta Noise Festival, SPEKTRUM (Berlin), Global Composition (Darmstadt), Vancouver New Music, and Insitu Recordings (Indonesia). He holds an MFA degree from Simon Fraser University and is the recipient of the 2018 R. Murray Schafer Soundscape award.
