The Naked Truth: Queer Artist Interviews - APARTSCAPE SPECIAL: Niccolo Seligmann

The Naked Truth: Queer Artist Interviews

Today I am joined by Niccolo Seligmann. Niccolo is a queer musician, composer, and sound designer who unites historical & traditional musics with contemporary music technology & practices. As a 2020 Strathmore Artist in Residence, Niccolo released their debut album, Kinship, which uses viola da gamba improvisation to enact multispecies resistance to the Anthropocene.
