Jack Hamill (United States, b. 1999) is a multimedia artist focused on sound. His practice centers on creating digital systems that integrate audiovisual instruments, biofeedback devices, and computer programs that interact with the compositional process. He has worked with a wide variety of aesthetic media, including computer-generated scores, Disklaviers, homemade eye-tracking devices, 16mm film, ultrasound fetal Dopplers, video projections, and acoustic ensembles.

Much of his recent work engages with the poetics of “digitality”: the condition of living in a digital culture. He is interested in the process by which digital life brings about perceptions of unlimited creative freedom and boundlessness at the same time as it produces disorientation and social and imaginative alienation. This often intersects with a parallel fixation on disparate modes of expressive intensity: seriousness and irreverence, deliberation and intuition, gibberish nonsense and vigorous manifestos. He is a PhD candidate in Music Composition and Technology at Northwestern University, where he studies with Jay Alan Yim and Alex Mincek.
