Jodi Rose is a nomadic writer and conceptual sound artist. Originally from Sydney, Australia she is now based in Berlin and engaged in traveling the world recording the sound of bridges in search of their secret voices that she hopes will result in a song that dissolves the world. This project was part of her research for a Masters in Media Art at Melbourne University, School of Creative Arts. Jodi Rose trained in Sculpture, Performance and Installation at Sydney College of the Arts, leading to her founding the Cult of the Mad Genius Artstar, (COMGAS). The work of COMGAS is diverse and eclectic, connected by a desire to explore the gaps and spaces in the fabric of cultural production. COMGAS works range from the infamous ‘Anti-Art Certificate’, to Otira’s ‘Tele-Seismic Emergency Phone’, the ‘Mythopoeia’ series in Alice Springs and Bega, ‘Architectonics of Delirium’, her current global bridge project ‘Singing Bridges,’ and upcoming ‘Wish Boxes’ series.

She released Singing Bridges: Vibrations and Variations, a CD of bridge compositions & remixes in 2005. Her works have been exhibited, broadcast and published in Australia, Scandinavia, UK, Asia, Europe and America, and she completed a permanent sound installation on The Eleanor Schonell Bridge, Brisbane in 2006.
