Tim O’Keefe is a New York City based creative known for his scoring & audio art work having scored a variety of feature films, documentaries, film installations, and branded content.  Highlights include As I Lay Dying (James Franco), State of Surveillance (VICE on HBO), Raw Craft with Anthony Bourdain, Tales of Our Times (Guggenheim Museum), and Ai Weiwei Introduces “Turn It On_ China on Film”.  His agency work includes scoring spots for Ferrari, Gucci, Nike, and NARS.  Films he has scored have premiered at Cannes, Venice, Sundance, Gagosian Gallery, PACE Gallery, MoMA, and MOCA.  In addition to his scoring work, Tim has written & produced music with a diverse range of artists including electronic music pioneer Hans-Joachim Roedelius (Cluster), famed Motown music icon Smokey Robinson, and bassist Andy Rourke of the UK’s legendary band The Smiths.

Tim co-founded Freedom Beat, a social justice organization focused on the role of music in global nonviolent civil resistance movements.  He produced over 30 short form documentaries highlighting significant international music artists and the movements they are associated with.  As a producer, he would research social justice movements, artists connected to their cause, recruit local production teams & academic experts, and coordinate each film's production. His interest in nonviolent civil resistance led him to be invited to participate in the Fletcher Summer Institute for the Advanced Study of Nonviolent Conflict at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy.  His films have been screened at the United States Institute of Peace in Washington, D.C., and at Sweden's Urban Voices Festival.  Bringing together his interest in politics, policy, storytelling, and audio, Tim has worked as a producer & sound designer on a variety of podasts including The United States Institute of Peace & Burning Man Project’s Culturally Attuned podcast series and Revolution 1: The Story of The Tunisian Uprising.

Tim's creative interests span many mediums including music, sound, podcast, film, and code-based interactive art.  He is particularly interested in social impact driven projects at the intersection of art, politics, and technology.  He received his MFA in Digital+Media from Rhode Island School of Design in 2012.  He was the film editor of a number of music videos that premiered in Rolling Stone, VICE, Interview Magazine, and Paper Magazine including REM's That Someone Is You which was directed by James Franco.

O'Keefe performs live with a focus on hardware-driven sets (analog synths, drum machines, and sequencers), in addition to DJing.
