My name is Akari Komura (she/her).
I am originally from Tokyo, Japan.
I like thinking, writing, and imagining
our sonic environment.
I am interested in composing scores
that are invitational and sensorial.
I am interested in curating a performance space
for contemplative listening and soundmaking.
I am currently based in California studying Ph.D. in music composition at UC San Diego.

To a sound that waters silence:
[breathe like an ocean;
do you listen to water in stillness?
tides coming in, inhale
have you sung towards water in movement?
tides going out, exhale]
have you danced towards water in stillness?
