ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Suuvi is a Cuban-Chinese multidisciplinary artist, composer, producer, creative technologist, and speaker working at the intersection of electronic music, contemporary composition, and immersive storytelling.
From 16 years of conservatory training and a Juilliard education, to a 10-day silent meditation retreat where she started hearing phantom cello in complete darkness, to becoming artist-in-residence at the San Francisco Conservatory after a chance encounter at a wine dinner — Suuvi's path has been anything but linear.
In this conversation, we get into her album Dark Therapy, the neuroscience of music and the brain, what it actually means to process darkness (literally and figuratively), the sunk cost fallacy of a classical career, seven years of being single and what that taught her, and why she believes softness is the greatest strength.
We also talk about flow states, Muay Thai, Dostoevsky, the Mandy Moore story, and whether music and magic share the same root word.
A wide-ranging, deeply human conversation about art, suffering, and what it takes to finally find your own voice.
