Don Haugen
Spokane, Washington 1971

Don Haugen is a visual designer, sonic experimenter, and curator based in Eugene, Oregon.

His work is guided by his interests in contrast, resonance, and the felt presence of sound, both physical and emotional. Through the use of contrasts of heavy/light, soft/hard, and quiet/loud. Haugen explores how these intangible feelings can act as catalysts to focus our inner-feelings on space and time. His current work merges home-built electro-acoustic instruments and reclaimed test equipment to create sonic texture-scapes.

Haugen’s work has been experienced through performance and exhibitions; at Drone Cinema (Videoscreening, Leiden, Netherlands & Seattle, WA. curated by Kim Cascone), Opus VII (art installation, Eugene, OR), Ende Tymes (Film screenings & performance, Brooklyn, NY) Splinter Squid Festival (Seattle, WA), NorCal Noise Festival (Sacramento, CA), Eugene Noise Festival, Denver Noise Festival, Noisepollenation (Los Angeles,CA), Portland Noise Festival, Godwaffle Noise (San Francisco, CA), several live radio performances and West Coast tours. His recorded sound works have been published by Eerie Materials, Human Monster, Control Valve, Roil Noise Offensive, Ratskin, Brise-Cul, Dolor Del Estamago, Obscurica, Enterruption, Obfuscated Records, Silent Records among others.

As a curator, Haugen focuses on creating opportunities for artists and audiences to build communities that otherwise might not exist. Everything from live scores to films, man many small and medium sized shows,
the Eugene Noise Festival, among others.
