Ed Wright height - How tall is Ed Wright?

Wright ran at least 1 mile everyday in 2017 to raise money for the Cleft Lip & Palate Association. He completed the challenge running over 500 miles, raising in excess of £2500. It may be relevant to this to note that Edward was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate.

During his time completing his thesis Wright worked on a number of broadcast projects including the tape part and realisation of Stereo Type for Guto Puw broadcast on S4C television in 2005 as part of the Bangor New Music Festival, also appearing on S4Cs Sioe Gelf with a workshop with pupils from Ysgol PendalarS4C television Sioe Gelf 15/4/08, and work being played on BBC Radio 1 Wales Introducing BBC Radio 1 Wales Introducing 5/6/09. His work first achieved international recognition in the IMEB Prix Bourges 2008 for his piece 'Con-chords' IMEB Prix Bourges. He has since gone on to sign to the Blipfonica record label Blipfonica and has released two CDs in the past two years, as well as contributing to the Journal of Creative Studies, the Composers of Wales Newsletter, and Electronic Music Wales. He also did sound for the Conwy Food Festival, Art Video.

Wright has performed widely thought the UK and abroad including performances in SARC (Belfast), Electroacoustic Cymru (Wales), St. James Piccadilly (London), Art Forum (Antwerp), ICMC2012 (Slovenia), California State University New Music Festival, NYCEMF (USA) & Toronto Electroacoustic Symposium (Canada). His work is characterised (although not exclusively) by the use of electronic resources especially surround and octophonic sound diffusion systems. Although his output remains somewhat melodic in comparison to many comparable acousmatic compositions, Wright's work has become increasingly driven by philosophical, rather than specifically musical content, as demonstrated in more recent pieces such as Thinking inside the Box and Crosswire; the emphasis is more on the multisensory experience of the music and the underlying discourse rather than a particular tune or melody.

He studied at Bangor University under the supervision of Andrew Lewis completing a doctorate in mixed electroacoustic and instrumental music in 2010 Edward Wright is actively composing and recording. He lives in North Wales with his partner and daughter. Wright's life was hit by tragedy when his father committed suicide in 2017, deeply affecting his next major work Space to Think.
