John Hudak

born 1958, Framingham Massachusetts. Lives and works in New York city.

John Hudak has been interested in sound and music from the age of four when he began to play a variety of instruments.
At the University of Delaware (BA, English 1981) and Naropa Institute for the Arts (1979),
he studied video, photography, creative writing and dance.
He then began to create taped soundtracks for his solo performance-art/dance pieces that later developed into sound-only pieces.

In recent years, he has concentrated solely on sound, particularly natural sounds.
Hudak’s current work focuses on the rhythms and melodies that exist in our daily aural environments.
These sounds usually remain hidden, as we tend to overlook their musical qualities,
or their musical qualities are obscured through mixture with other sounds.
In simplified terms, what he is doing could be considered "re-framing what is already there so that it can be admired."
