Beatie Wolfe

”Musical weirdo and visionary" (Vice) Beatie Wolfe is an artist who has beamed her music into space, been appointed a UN Women role model for innovation, and held an acclaimed solo exhibition of her ‘world first’ album designs at the Victoria & Albert Museum.

Named by WIRED Magazine as one of "22 people changing the world,” Wolfe is at the forefront of pioneering new formats for music that bridge the physical and digital, which include: a 3D theatre for the palm of your hand; a wearable record jacket - cut by Bowie/Hendrix’s tailor out of fabric woven with Wolfe’s music; an ‘anti-stream’ from the quietest room on earth and a space broadcast via the Big Bang horn. Wolfe's latest innovation is an environmental protest piece built using 800,000 years of our planet’s climate data, to visualise rising CO2 levels, which premiered at the Nobel Prize Summit, the London Design Biennale and COP26.

Wolfe is also the co-founder of a “profound” (The Times) research project looking at the power of music for people living with dementia. The Barbican recently commissioned a documentary about Beatie Wolfe's work and approach.
