Summary
Antonio Dias is a composer, media artist and researcher whose practice bridges instrumental, electroacoustic and audiovisual composition with installation and virtual environments. Based in Lisbon, he combines creative production—scoring film, theatre and transmedia—with an academic career as Associate Professor and researcher at the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Lisbon. His work spans long-running collaborations (notably with Les Phonogénistes) and festival and museum presentations across Portugal, France and Switzerland, demonstrating fluency in both artistic and technological processes. Holding a PhD from Université Vincennes-Saint-Denis and decades of freelance practice, he consistently explores the intersection of sound design, multimedia and spatialized virtual work. Less obvious is his sustained engagement in transdisciplinary projects that map poetic texts and narrative forms into electroacoustic and visual systems, making research a driver of new compositional methods.
