About

My name is Santiago Jiménez Ramírez, but I have many other names. I could say that I dedicate myself to the art of naming things, to the craft of naming sonorous and poetic phenomena. Inversau is the CE0 in my creative enterprise.

I am a Colombian composer, producer, teacher and sound artist based in Berlin. I studied composition at the Universidad Javeriana in Bogotá under the tutelage of Juan Antonio Cuéllar, Carolina Noguera and Guillermo Gaviria among others. My compositions walk a thin line between improvised music, chamber music and experimental pop in the skin of different musical groups such as Benjamín, Tristán Alumbra, Mamíferos, Animales Blancos, Juemáquina and Las migragnas. I have toured and performed concerts in Colombia, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Austria, Spain, Germany, France and I can't wait to continue expanding my sounds in other territories, under other listening perspectives.

At the moment I am pursuing my Master's degree in sound art at the University of Music and Theater in Munich under the tutelage of Nicola Hein and Till Bovermann. My research specializes in the extension of sound and listening as a paradigm for understanding measureability in perception from an aesthetic point of view. In my work I use classical music formats and analog media for sound production, as well as programming interactive systems between audio and video in Max/Msp and Puredata. Recently I have been researching the implementation of artificial intelligence in musical and visual composition algorithms.

I Like Cycling, Pistachos, the Internet and Dogs. I have fund bands everywhere I go. I have seen my eyes in the snow.

I love to sing.
