Morton Subotnick

Morton Subotnick (born April 14, 1933, in Los Angeles, California, USA) is an American composer of electronic music and an innovator in works involving instruments and other media, including interactive computer music systems.

In the early 1960's, Subotnik, along with Pauline Oliveros and Ramon Sender, formed the San Francisco Tape Music Center. He was also one of the founding members of California Institute Of The Arts, where he taught for many years. He is married to Joan La Barbara with whom he collaborates.
