Sarah Angliss

An award-winning composer, writer and robotic artist, Sarah Angliss’s work reflects her obsessions with obsolete machines, faded variety acts and the darkest European folk tales. She’s particularly known for her haunting music, her skills on the theremin and musical saw and the ensemble of ‘uncanny’ performing robots she’s created to accompany her live on stage. In May 2011, Sarah’s band Spacedog were voted Best Music Event of Brighton Festival and Fringe. More recently, they were awarded R&D funding from the PRS Foundation. Sarah is a regular collaborator, working with Punchdrunk Theatre Company, the National Physical Laboratory, the Science Museum, Smithsonian Institution and many others. She also presents salon talks on the stranger aspects of the history of sound recording. Her talk on birds learning human tunes became a BBC Radio 4 documentary The Bird Fancyer’s Delight, broadcast June 2011 (producer Neil McCarthy).
