Bio
Wilted Woman is the primary alias of composer/performer Elizabeth Davis. Her work often uses the interplay of technological limitation, algorithmic processes, humor, and human expression/intervention as subject matter. Davis’ output since 2014 under the WW name resists easy categorization, ranging from minimalist electroacoustics and chamber music to harsh noise and dance music.As a solo artist and collaborator, Davis has released over 20 records to date on labels such as Alien Jams, Primitive Languages/Psychic Liberation, Phantasy, and Palto Flats. She has presented her work at Sonic Acts Festival, Cafe Oto, Transmediale, ZKM, Fylkingen, MaerzMusik, Triennale Milano, 3HD Festival, and Südwestrundfunk amongst many other concert halls, clubs, and festivals across Europe and North America. Her collaborators include Silvia Kastel, Mark, Christoph de Babalon, Nick Klein, and Domingo Castillo.
Davis also works as an engineer, instrument builder and radio producer. She previously ran a label called untergang-institut and co-curates a monthly concert series for electronic music at KM28 with Bridget Ferrill. She lives in Berlin, Germany.
