Sound UK’s artist development programme, Sound Generator, supports early career artists and the work they present.
In this series of spotlight interviews, we find out more about the artists on our 2024-25 artist development programme and learn more about their Sound Generator projects.
This week, we talk to Hang Linton.
Hang Linton is a self-taught, interdisciplinary artist, working in music, performance, dance, video, sculpture and installation. Their practice explores otherness through sound, non-linear time concepts, community and public art.
For Sound Generator, Hang is researching and developing their idea of creating a large-scale, interactive community synth machine, which could tour to different cities across the UK and Europe.

"I want to create an experimental synth that will be in the public realm and disrupt mundane spaces." Hang Linton
We look forward to sharing more details about Hang Linton's Sound Generator project as it develops. Visit Hang Linton's website to find out more about their work.
Sound Generator is Sound UK's artist research and development (R&D) programme that supports early-career artists and seeds the development of an ambitious new project. Following an open call, a panel of judges including leading figures across contemporary music, chose six emerging artists working at the forefront of sound and music.
Sound Generator supports artists in the first 5-10 years of their career. Over the six month programme, they each receive mentoring by a range of professionals to develop a project ready for showcasing to the industry.
