Philip White’s performances center on a non-linear feedback system, which consists of a mixer and several homemade circuits. In addition to his work with analog and digital electronics, White has written extensively for chamber ensembles and created a large body of inter-media pieces that explore meaning in information transmission.
In 2008, Philip received his MFA from Mills College where he studied with Chris Brown, Hilda Parades , Helmut Lachenmann, Roscoe Mitchell and James Fei. His works have been exhibited in galleries across the US and Germany. He currently performs with Suzanne Thorpe (thenumber46), Chuck Johnson (with chuck johnson with philip white) and Charity Chan (Cat on a Wire). Recent performances/exhibitions include The Stone (NYC), Sonic Circuits (DC), Redux New Media Festival (Charleston, SC) and Neurotitan (Berlin). Thenumber46’s forthcoming debut Bleach and Ammonia is being released in cassette format on Tape Drift Records. Philip also writes about music, contributing to the Wire magazine and SEAMUS Journal.
