Michiko Theurer is a multimedia performing artist, composer, and community transformation facilitator dedicated to creating spaces for shared wonder and joyful movement. As a violinist, she has collaborated with a wide range of artists including Meredith Monk, Tyshawn Sorey, Eighth Blackbird, and members of the Takács and Pacifica Quartets. She is a founding member of the fff ensemble, a Bay-area-based interdisciplinary feminist improv group, and Treebird, a trio of performer-composer-movers, with Marie Finch and Julie Herndon. As a PhD candidate in musicology at Stanford, Michiko is shaping a companion for liberatory practice based in the in-between spaces of disciplines, media, and cultural inheritances. She loves hosting creative sharing parties and watching ink bloom on wet paper.
