Ben Leeds Carson (born August 24, 1971, in Raleigh, North Carolina) is an American composer and educator.
Biography
Early in Carson's life his parents did surveying work for the United States Geological Service; in a later radio interview, Carson describes geological influences on his approach to composition.[1] As a resident artist at IRCAM (!999), Carson collaborated with psycho-acousticians Stephen McAdams and Daniel Matzkin in studies of musical form.[2] In 2003, Carson joined the music faculty at the University of California, Santa Cruz. He has served as a visiting scholar at Columbia University (2007-2008), and an artist-in-residence at Shanghai Conservatory (2018).
Music
Carson's music, often exploring themes of interiority and philosophical questions about consciousness, is informed by scholarship on Gilles Deleuze[3] and William James.[4] Early critics noted "a strong momentum and propulsion",[5] and complex voice organization,[6] both associated with Carson's empirical approaches to rhythm and form.[7]
