Jacky Schreiber I'm involved in electroacoustic-computer-electronic-contemporary-and the like music for more than 14 years, first as a student with Eduardo Kusnir at the Conservatorio Nacional de Musica Juan Jose Landaeta (CNMJJL), and later as composer-performer. Many of my tape music has been 'performed' at the Synthese festivals at Bourges, France and in many local and foreign contemporary music festivals around the world. Most of my non electroacoustic music has been also performed. Recently the 'Juventudes Musicales de Venezuela' released the CD UnmundodentrodeunmundO wich is a compilation of electroacoustic music works of venezuelan composers Fidel Rodriguez, Alfredo del Monaco, Josefina Benedetti, Eduardo Kusnir, Alfredo Rugeles, Rodrigo Segnini and UnmundodentrodeunmundO wich is the name of my work for processed voice and tape.
