Nū is an Ethiopian-Australian sound artist, vocalist and live coder* whose work blends non-Western musical traditions, improvisation and Afrofuturism. Using the live coding program Sonic Pi and her vocals, she creates immersive sonic worlds, weaving elements from ambient, jazz, R&B and electronic music. 

On an overcast Tuesday morning in Collingwood, Nū and I met at Trainscendence - a venue tucked away in a laneway just off Easey St that is a living, breathing hub for artists, makers, dreamers, and doers. We talked about the path towards doing art full time, negotiating artists fees and just trusting the process (instead of trying to control everything).

Music: ŽIVA - Idle Heart, NŪ - Tezetaye
