Bofan Ma (马博凡) is an intermedia composer and researcher based in Manchester. Originally from China, he actively explores what ‘borders’ could mean in the age of datafication, engaging lived transnational experiences through sound, images, and novel technologies.
His work often incorporates spoken words and data-driven processes, inviting playful dialogues between the subjective self, historically and culturally-informed stereotypes, and an increasingly problematised digital world.
