Hello, I’m Jose Gallardo, a composer, teacher, and researcher based in Medellín, Colombia. I work at the intersection of audiovisual and multimedia communication, developing courses and projects that fuse aesthetics with technology. I teach in the music department and in other programs on topics such as composition, structures of music 1, orchestration 1 and 2, and advanced timbral work, as well as integrated aesthetics and digital audio creation. In addition to teaching, I design and run sound creation laboratories, contribute to research on interactive media design and sound design, and collaborate with networks of music schools. My work has earned recognition including the 2022 New Talents of Art Award from the Medellín Chamber of Commerce (Radio Art, Work, Resonance category); the 2020 LEP stimulus prize from the Ministry of Culture of Medellín for experimental music creation and audiovisual work; and the 2016 award for a critical essay in music from the city’s culture secretariat.
