Polish composer, sound artist and sound engineer. She graduated from Poznań’s Adam Mickiewicz University and the Ignacy Jan Paderewski Academy of Music as well as Stockholm’s Royal College of Music. Słyż is a participant of the international project “We Are Europe” and the SHAPE+ platform for European innovative music and audiovisual media artists. 

Throughout her live performances, Słyż has been exploring subtle connections between acoustic instruments and modular synthesisers, creating rich and diverse drone structures which slowly but intensely highlight the power of pulse and resonances with both the surrounding space and the audience. Interactive sonification systems are another large part of her artistic practice. In 2017–2022 Słyż conducted artistic research that involved practical experiments on movement and gesture sonification, human proprioceptive reflexes, and different types of interaction. 

Her works have been presented at the most important European music festivals and in various major venues including Avant Art Festival (Wroclaw), CTM Festival (Berlin), Fylkingen (Stockholm), Meet Factory (Prague), NODE Festival (Modena), ORF musikprotokoll (Graz), Open Source Art Festival (Sopot), Rewire Festival (The Hague), and Unsound (Cracow).
