Marta Verde Baqueiro

Associate Professor Music Production, Technology, and Innovation

In Their Own Words

"I have been working on digital media, live visuals, and interactive environments for 10 years, as an artist and also as a technician, most of the time with musicians and other artists from different backgrounds. I'm a resourceful creator, capable of dealing with complex situations and finding ad-hoc solutions. Due to my artistic background, I can provide guidance and advice to students about aesthetics, technologies, and creative approaches within their practice, besides being able to solve technical issues related to programming, electronics, and digital fabrication."

"I want my students to learn in my sessions that technology can be difficult when you don't know how to deal with it, but when they get to know its possibilities, it can be the best ally to help them push their boundaries and improve their performances."
