\n\t \u201cMiller’s productions illuminate how race has been constructed by re-presenting the raw materials of popular culture in remixed forms. We will see this during his colloquium performance and presentation of his audio\/visual mash-up titled Rebirth of a Nation. His work is simultaneously a challenge to cultural power and an exhibition of how to use art and philosophy to open new domains of cultural practice where the powers that be are contested,\u201d said Ian Reyes, assistant professor of Communication Studies and a colloquium coordinator.<\/p>\n


\n\tMiller earned degrees in French literature and philosophy from Bowdoin College. He began experimenting with disparate sounds at the college\u2019s radio station, mixing James Brown and Public Enemy tracks. Fifteen years later, he launched a music revolution and is regarded by many as the founder of the \u201cillbient\u201d sound, fuse dubbing of hip-hop, jazz, and drum and bass. He also became known as one of popular music\u2019s hardest-working mixologists. <\/p>\n


\n\tMiller is a professor at the European Graduate School where he teaches music-mediated art. His latest book, Sound Unbound: Sampling Digital Music and Culture, is comprised of various short essays touching upon the issues related to the new wave of technology, digital remixing and culture. <\/p>\n
