Tectonics 2026 TECTONICS: Angélica Castelló

Angélica Castelló is a Mexican–Austrian composer, recorder player, improviser, sound artist and magnetophonic tape weaver. Her music evokes both the beauty and challenge of being alive through electroacoustic spells that summon memory, death, solace, trauma, resilience, fragility, and the oneiric realm of the subconscious. Espacio ∞ is an ongoing composition without a final form. Castelló seeks to create textures similar to swarms, clouds of noise and wind, abysses of sine waves and water sounds, blending the sounds of a live instrument with electronic sounds and, in the electronic mix, those of analogue machines, broken radios, old tapes, and purely crystalline field recordings. The music remains perpetually in motion, continuously transforming, and resisting any sense of final closure.
