Kristian de Leon is a Brooklyn, NY-based composer and electronic media artist, working across composition, sound design, and creative technology. His practice draws on formal training in percussion and composition, and extends through an ongoing interest in the relationship between live performance and visual media.

His recent projects include compositions for acoustic-electric ensemble and dynamic lighting, works for creative movement and adaptive fixed media, and real-time visual synthesis for generative electronic music.

Kristian has written for several premiere ensembles and performance artists including JACK Quartet, Bergamot Quartet, and percussionist Lynn Vartan, and has worked closely with organizations including Brooklyn Motion Capture Dance Ensemble, Southern California Marimba, and the CSUF Wind Symphony. Currently, he performs collaboratively with audio-visual duo Blank Aberration and acoustic-electric trio Other Faces (with Dan Langa & Adam Lutz).
