Koh learned the piano from an early age. Her fascination for resonating strings in particular and sonic timbre in general led to taking up music professionally, coming to think of composition as a form of ‘calligraphy on a sonic canvas’. Through computer-assisted composition and audio processing, she could imagine sounds beyond those produced by acoustic instruments, and sonic space. She developed a concept of “theatre of music”, where the sonic canvas became physical, i.e., the stage. That is, “whilst the narrative structure of the composition may be based on theatrical devices, the sound objects (effectively the play’s characters) are driven by musical identities and relationships”. Koh’s work often starts with an external structure from architecture, calligraphy, or science. The 2010 multimedia performance ‘On the String’ is a consolidation of this approach. Asking herself: “What if we could hear the sounds of vibrating one-dimensional strings? Or the sonic texture created by various vibration patterns of a string curving space? If these imaginings were audible, what would they sound like?” Composition becomes a “systematic musicalisation of certain features of the scientific thought and, through interdisciplinary investigations (music, visual arts, interactive design, instrument design, light), culminates in a multimedia performance”.
