Uriel is a regular musician at Le Générateur: two of his creations saw the light of day there after a residency period: We are stellar with Mathieu Sanchez in 2017 and Les yeux du grand manteau de nuit in 2018. He also contributed to the creation l’Odyssée amoureuse by Maude Trutet which played in January 2019 at Le Générateur.
He has been collaborating with many areas of the performing arts since 2002: dance, contemporary puppetry, theater, as well as the visual arts. In conjunction with his compositional work, he plays as a drummer/performer for several projects and conducts research on the drum/computer connection, developing his own software in Max-Msp.
These multiple axes lead him to reflect on the notion of performance and improvisation, to take into account notions of plasticity & physicality of sound, as well as to question the place of the performer (gestures, energies, intentions) and frictional psychological contexts.
Intimately blending drums and electronics, flexible writing and improvisation, he has received commissions from FIAC, the Maerzmusik festival, Césaré – cncm, the Lafayette Anticipation foundation, the National Theater of China, Sharjah Art Foundation.
He is an associate composer at Soundtrack and was selected Shape Artists 2018.
