Power has been busy organizing the Viennese underground scene for years. She has been curatiing various events, was a member of the live improvisations project Bird People, the techno live improvisations duo S.E.P. and founding part of the underground experimental punk band Ausländer.
She was a music journalist for many years and co-worked on the publication round the viennese underground-scene "AUZine".
She is founding member of the artist and DJ collectives Love Is Strange, Arsyugoslaviae, Pussy Trio or Fatalismus Spunk.

For some time Power has been working on a CutUpLoops series. Brion Gysin discovered the cutting technique by chance in 1959 and pointed it out to William S. Burroughs, who was to become the most important exponent of CutUp.
Power transfers the system from the word to the sound. For this purpose, loops are layered according to the CutUp technique, their speed changed and rearranged. Torn out of their context and edited beyond recognition, they yield themselves again and overhaul to a different whole that follows its own story. 
In 2018 Power released her debut tape
"Lost Lipstick Loops" on the viennese underground label Mont House. Since that she had publications on different netlabels. 
In 2023 she published her own DIY CutUp adaption of the Vienna Danube Waltz for the opening of Vienna´s first Krandaubel museum as a soundpostcard on Vinylograph. 
In autumn 2025 her CutUp series was featured at SILENCE (Festival internazionale di musica acusmatica in the program Floating Sound Gallery Vienna in France and Italy, she performed in Vienna on the octophnic istening session curated by Daniel Teruggi and Anton Iakhontov in Floating sound gallery just recently in collaboration with tin.hoc (visuals). The next session in this frame is planned for spring 2026 in EchoRaum Wien.

Since 2019, Power and tin.hoc aka Tina Hochkogler have been working closely together in sound and visuals. What connects them is a common approach to process, an appreciation for the beauty of the unfinished, and a belief in the power of the fragmentary. They both deconstruct, displace, and layer. Power creates dense sonic landscapes, while tin.hoc condenses temporal and spatial dimensions into the visual compositions. Their collaboration unfolds as a dialogue between media – an interplay that uncovers new meanings, the point is not about harmony, but about resonance, the unforeseen that emerges when two artistic languages intertwine.
They contunously add new videos to their project.

2021 Power and the US artist Sean Derrick Cooper Marquardt founded the avant-garde experimental duo Afghanistan Mon Amour. They worked with artists like Käthe Kruse (Die Tödliche Doris) or Fur Chick, released several albums, partizipated on many compilations and radio shows all over the world and have been performing in Vienna, Berlin or Graz. 

Power and Ann Bony founded in autumn 2025 The Unstable Crystals aka Shivering Atoms - the sound is something between quirky pop and experimental music. First single "How the f..." will be
released on Vinylograph Vienna in 2026.

2024 Power made sounddesign for several film essays (AKKU TV/ Andrea Seidling) and was a composer on the film project "No Mercy" from Isa Willinger, commissioned by Flair Films (Vienna) & Tondowski Films (Berlin) as head of sound department. The official film start will be spring 2026. Currently she works on more film essys.

Recent collaborations: Mel E Logan (Chicks On Speed), Mandy Mozart, Phillip
Quehenberger (all based in Vienna), Annalized Noise (Italy), Julischka Poly (Berlin) and Nandele Maguni (Mozambique).

Her latest project is the event-series "Immer Wieder Sonntags" which she curates togehter with the artist Sinnthese and Vinylograph. It’s a platform for strange sounds and a bridge between artists out of the box, beyond mainstream and in the experimental field.

In her dj-sets she strictly refuses genres, captures moods, creates vibrations.
