Dali de Saint Paul is a prolific collaborator and a prominent figure in Bristol's improv scene. “I want to explore different collaborations to see how I can make dialogue with people within different genres”, she says over email. “From free jazz to experimental via post classical, ambient, electronics and industrial music.”

The performer has worked with US noise artist Moor Mother, is a member of feminist improvising collective Viridian Ensemble, the long-running group Domestic Sound Cupboard, and a part of the recently conceived industrial duo Harrga with Miguel Prado. She also founded The Ephemeral Project 64, which invites different musicians to improvise with her until the ever-changing group has completed 64 separate performances.
