About Melissa Hunt
Melissa Hunt is a musician and sound artist, harking from the Northern Rivers, Bundjalung Country. She is interested in sonic assembly, acoustic collage and bricolage…something like sonicolage. She plays with the transmutable qualities of sound in composition and electroacoustic music, the interplay between natural and artificial sounds, old and new, now and then.

Melissa works in various contexts including live performance, theatre, soundscape, soundtrack and installation. She is a double bassist, clarinetist and occasional singer, and currently making and performing with groups Headland, Dream Ravine/Beaverman (with Chas Glover), and Jex Lopez and the Wild. She has created sound installations for Liquid Architecture, Performance Space and Watch this Space. Other collaborations include sound design and composition for Cat Jones’ performance installations Somatic Drifts and the Plantarium: Empathic Limb Clinic, and sound design for several PACT Theatre ensemble shows. Most recently she created the companion sound piece to Claire Conroy's exhibition, The Sky From Here.
