Ian Tyson has exhibited widely and has work in many public collections. He will be in residence at the Sainsbury Centre in November. Ian was commissioned to make a sculpture outside at the University of East Anglia in memory of Professor Ilham Dilman. The new work, Proximity, is now installed in the grounds.

Simon Waters is a musician with a background in composition for dance, improvisation, performance (not always music) and the visual arts, particularly as these relate to digital technology. He has worked with Ballet Rambert, Adventures in Motion Pictures and Scottish Ballet amongst others. He is a Senior Lecturer and Director of the Electro-Acoustic Music Studios at the School of Music, UEA.

Simon's work, Sonic Arts 44: Installation, is a multi-channel sound installation created in response to Proximity, a sculpture by Ian Tyson. The work involves a fixed element within which each audience member moves, carrying their own individual portable component of the overall sound environment.
