Holly Herndon is an American multi-disciplinary artist currently based in Berlin, Germany. She is known for her innovative and boundary-pushing approach to music and art. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of genres, including electronic music, experimental pop, and avant-garde composition, *Herndon* creates immersive sonic landscapes that challenge traditional notions of sound.

With her unique blend of ethereal vocals, intricate production techniques, and cutting-edge technology, *Herndon* has established herself as one of the most exciting voices in contemporary music. Her critically acclaimed albums have garnered widespread praise for their thought-provoking themes and fearless exploration of new sonic territories.

Influenced by artists such as Oneohtrix Point Never, Laurel Halo, Aïsha Devi, and Julia Holter among others,*Herndon* pushes the boundaries of what it means to be a musician in the digital age. Through her use of custom software and live performance techniques, she blurs the line between human expression and machine intelligence.

Holly Herndon's debut collection of material hybridizes experimental and dance music into hard-coded human sensuality. Incorporating themes of presence and physicality/flux and futurity within said musical expressions via Herndon's unapologetic use of computer as her primary instrument, Movement translates the Avant-Garde into what Herndon fundamentally considers "life practice." The influences of Maryanne Amacher and Galina Ustvolskaya are as prevalent in Herndon's music as Pan Sonic and Berlin and Birmingham 90s techno. Still, in line with pop deconstructionists Laurie Anderson and Art of Noise, Movement is purposefully positioned to reach new ears beyond a niche.
