Neil Luck
Neil Luck is a composer, performer and director based in London. His work often explores the pathos and interaction between live human performance and multimedia, and attempts to frame the act of music making as something curious, or weird, or useful, or spectacular in and of itself. His work takes a range of forms from music-theatre, to concert works, radio, public projects and recordings.
Neil is the founder and director of the music-theatre ensemble ARCO, and a co-founder of artist cooperative squib-box. Independently he has written for and collaborated with a range of artists in the UK and abroad, and presented work at music venues, festivals, and galleries internationally including the ICA, Whitechapel Gallery, MATA Festival (NYC), Tate Britain, Tate Modern, BBC Proms, Palais de Tokyo (Paris), in Vilnius and Aarhus Capital of Culture festivals, the Tokyo Experimental Festival, and on BBC Radio 3.
As a curator and producer Neil has organised a number of events, festivals, and projects which reflect his interests in live performance, collaboration, and questions of taste. He also makes and presents radio, having produced several series and individual programmes for Resonance FM, and an hour long radiophonic music-drama for BBC Radio 3. His music is released on the squib-box and Entr’acte labels.
