Alice Guerlot-Kourouklis is a sound artist and composer based in France.
With a degree in sociology, she worked as a musician (accordion and piano) before devoting herself to composition.  
Composition, which emerged from her instrumental practices (self-taught, unorthodox use of instruments, sound as a material to be sculpted, modification of the timbre of the instrument with the use of effects pedals and real-time sound processing, play on the ambiguity between natural sound and synthetic sound) is approached as an empirical process. Through encounters with other artistic fields, she has freely navigated between several aesthetics, exploring the concept of translation and the notion of conversation between media: field recording, the broadcasting of interviews, the abstraction of sound in encounters with image or dance, the search for singularity through the meticulous work of textures as a privileged mode of musical expression for films.
Inspired by the human sciences, and committed to a more experimental approach, for some years now she has been interested in the musical translation of sociological and philosophical concepts. In 2019, she co-founded the collective IAKERI and co-signed the installation Murs Invisibles, presented in numerous art centres and festivals. For her, this work inaugurates a new approach to musical creation through the use of digital data derived from a social event, which will determine the spatialisation, dynamics, timbre and texture of the music, in the form of deterioration, frequency sculpting and the appearance of silences.
She then introduced herself to free improvisation and polyrhythm, which also led her to reflect on the impregnations of the ear and its perceptions.
In 2020, the Festival Image Sonore commissioned a work of mixed music for "Agriconium", which she performed accompanied by cellist Eric-Maria Couturier (Ensemble Intercontemporain) and violinist Antoine Maisonhaute (Quatuor Tana).
In 2021, the Quatuor TANA commissioned her to create Through The Looking | Glass, a work of mixed music based on the quartets of Philip Glass.
