About Andamio

About_

Andamio is a collaborative platform that brings together artists from different geographical locations. Our artistic practices centre on the union of sound, moving images, and storytelling practices. We have worked in various creative practices such as audio-visual performance, electronic literature, visual music, electroacoustic music, live coding, contemporary dance, virtual reality, installation, documentary, animation, and interactive art.

Andamio works in three areas: artistic production, research, and education. Our creative processes contemplate adapting and combining analogue and digital technologies, embodying constantly mutating narratives.

Andamio's members live in different cities in Canada, Mexico, and Argentina. Therefore, we create projects through telematic and (sometimes) in-person collaboration. In this assemblage, each one of us brings specific knowledge, practices, and experiences that enrich and strengthen our artistic processes.
