    Yuriko Hase Kojima

    Composer Yuriko Hase Kojima (Shobi University) joins us in conversation with electroacoustic music researcher Cathy Cox (Kunitachi College of Music). Together they take us through Kojima’s musical history, including her time at Columbia during the transition from the Electronic Music Center (EMC) to the Computer Music Center (CMC) in the mid-90s. Yuriko speaks about how electronics help her to realize the sounds in her mind that cannot be put to paper. The interview also touches on the importance that female compositional role models have had on her artistic development, including interactions with Betsy Jolas and Mari Kimura.
