Born in N. Pazar (Yugoslavia) in 1981, Mersid formerly lived in Sarajevo and now lives in western Sweden. He's a composer, media artist and researcher with a focus on electroacoustic music and acousmatic composition, as well as practices in phonography, sound art and improvisation, among other interdisciplinary areas.
Having studied composition and performance throughout Europe, he's consistently performed and worked in a multimedia environment and has inquired into the intangible paths of liminal auditory.
Focusing on sound as his main research tool, Mersid navigates the fluctuating materialities of his artistic practice in light of its key concerns: hyperobject (The Liminal Spectatorship of After-Nature, a project-in-progress); transtexting (Ecologies of Fear: En Corps Sonore, 2019); obsolescence (Insound Disclosures: Indexing the Possible but Impalpable, 2019); processes of deskilling (Aperture, 2017); concepts of ear-witnessing (Mnemonic Maps, 2017); prosthesis (Music Through Spectacles: I. Cold Frame, II. Prosthetic Voice, III. Theodelitus, 2016); environmental matters (Cooling the Music, 2016); and states of migration (La Chorégraphie de Résistance, 2015).
