With a strong background in world music and contemporary pop, Yunyu has played a variety of instruments ranging from vocals and keyboards to Taiko, Guzheng, Guqin, and Hulusi. Her works have premiered in film festivals worldwide. Previous awards include winning Triple J Unearthed, the Crystal Pine award for “Best Composer for Short” in the International Sound and Film Music Festival (Croatia).
Yunyu's innovative compositions have been featured at Ars Electronica for two consecutive years and at Siggraph Asia (Real Time Live with Taikoz and Roland Japan), where she created a solo Taiko piece that generates responsive orchestral layers in real-time. She is a finalist in the prestigious Art Music Awards for Work of the Year in Electroacoustic and Sound Art and is a Roland-endorsed artist.
This year, Yunyu continues her European tour at NIME (Netherlands - New Instrument Musical Expression) and Ars Electronica (Austria), presenting two of her works as installations and interactive music performances. She is also the recipient of the competitive Creative Music Arts Projects for Individuals and Groups grant, enabling her to further develop the next installation of her real-time orchestral layered performances with Taikoz.
As a PhD researcher in binaural spatial audio, Yunyu's practice-based research focuses on "Quest Driven Spatial Songs," which are headphone-driven experiences that adapt to the listener’s position in space-time, revealing different arrangements and lyrics. Her research is supported by scholarships from Dolby and the University of Technology Sydney.
