OPENING RECEPTION: PATTERNS OF CONVERGENCE
Nathaniel Ober is an internationally known experimental digital artist who has a unique hybrid
creative practice that spans installation, sculpture, sound, instrument building, digital prototyping
and astrophysics. He engages audiences by sharing listening experiences from the natural
world with processes of sonification. These experimental works can be experienced in the field
or through his multi-sensory immersive installations.
Ober’s work has been featured nationally at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San
Francisco, and internationally at the Parque Explora in Medellín Colombia, Arteles Creative
Center in Finland as well as the International Symposium on Electronic Art (ISEA).
From 2009–2013 Nathaniel was program director of multimedia and graphic design at the
Raffles Design Institute in New Delhi, India and Colombo, Sri Lanka. Ober holds an MFA from
the Digital Arts and New Media program at the University of California, Santa Cruz, and a BFA
from the Columbus College of Art and Design.
