Born in Istanbul, Turkey, and now based in Austin, USA, Bike is a composer and cellist whose work spans acoustic, electronic, and electro-acoustic compositions. She engages in both score-based and improvised performances, as well as artistic research, seamlessly blending elements of traditional and contemporary concert music with electronics. Her music explores themes of proximity, memory, and (re/de)-construction, while her broader artistic vision delves into co-presence and mixed realities in states of transition and transformation. Bike holds a bachelor’s and master’s degree in cello performance and, in 2022, earned a Master of Music Composition from Istanbul Technical University MIAM – Center for Advanced Studies in Music. Her works have been presented on stages across Turkey and internationally. Currently, she is pursuing a DMA at the University of Texas at Austin, Butler School of Music, and works in the Electronic and Experimental Media Studios (EEMS).
