Sean Russell Hallowell (@isorhythmics) is a composer and video artist based in West Sonoma County, CA. His time-based art synthesizes experimental techniques developed from hand-built circuitry with a cosmic perspective on music as a conduit for physical and metaphysical energy.

His music has been showcased at venues and festivals across the US (SXSW, Gray Area, NYCEMF) as well as internationally in Mexico, Chile, South Korea, Japan, Belgium, the UK, Croatia, Poland, and Iceland. Recent audiovisual works have been installed at galleries in San Francisco, New York City, and London.

His art is inspired by outmoded media technologies, e.g. analog tape and cathode-ray tube televisions. Through them, he explores phenomenologies of time in relation to the fourfold arts of number that Medieval European philosophers called the quadrivium — i.e. music, arithmetic, geometry, and astronomy.
