Sound and music for exploratory art projects
I compose original music for instrumentalists and ensembles, games, films. I design sound for installation art, games, film (or suggest something!)
More information & portfolio →I offer workshops, mentoring, and public engagement such as speaking panels on public art, sound art, contemporary music.

Working with Vince as a mentor has brought clarity and direction to both my artistic practice and career trajectory.
As a highly skilled composer, producer and sound artist with experience installing work in the public realm, Vincent's contribution was invaluable.
“For Vincent, truth and, from it, musical authenticity, comes not from the mystical or the subjective but from the search to be informed about the world and about the media with which the musician works.”
“What is clear is that Giles' music is often intimately linked to the setting in which it is appreciated – there is an intentional blurring of the distinction between the content of the piece and the ambient noise of the space.”
“Vincent Giles Differing Dialogues is another adventure through the wilder sounds that the low flutes bring to the table … [He] paints an amazing landscape exploiting so many of the wondrous extended techniques offered by the instrumentation.”
