Hugo Branco

Having performed as a DJ since 2001 , over the past few years Hugo Branco has mainly composed and performed sound works within the contexts of live electronic improvisation and sound design for multimedia installation, video and the scenic arts.
A&R at VIC NIC, Hugo is currently the artistic director of VIC // Aveiro Arts House —a creative ecosystem that combines arts centre, guesthouse and arts residency, periodically hosting exploratory concerts, new media, performance, cinema and literature shows.
Invited speaker at several international conferences about sound, art and technology, Hugo Branco frequently works as cultural programmer/curator of music, new media and sound art for both cosy underground festivals and larger-scale institutional events.
There he goes. One of God’s own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Artwork
Limited edition of 5 signed fine arts prints by Lägrima
During his last short residency at VIC, Spanish visual artist Lägrima produced some amazing artwork for VIC NIC. This very limited edition of collage was printed on 210g fine arts paper using UV resistant carbon pigment paint and signed by the artist.
