Dr Jenn Kirby is a composer, performer, lecturer and music technologist.
Jenn teaches music at the University of the West of Scotland. Her output
includes contemporary instrumental composition, electroacoustic music,
sound art, noise music, experimental pop, laptop orchestra performance and
solo live electronics. Jenn builds software, uses wearables and re-purposed

expression.
