about

Sandy Davis (b. Madrid, Spain) is a sound designer and creative technologist specializing in spatial audio and interactive sound systems for immersive experiences. Based between New York and Barcelona, she builds responsive sonic environments for installations, exhibitions, and live events, designing the audio systems that make a space feel alive and in dialogue with the people inside it.

Her practice spans the full arc of sound design for experiential work: spatial composition, real-time audio programming, sensor-driven interaction, and on-site technical direction. She works in Max/MSP, Ableton Live, and Spat Revolution for audio, and uses TouchDesigner to build the interactive systems that connect sound to space, movement, and data. Recent commissions include In(Visible) Energy (2024), a site-specific installation at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion in Barcelona where she served as lead sound designer and technical producer; and Mares del Mañana (2025), an immersive dining experience for a European climate campaign in which spatial audio shaped the entire narrative arc of the evening.

Her thesis work, Rabia (2025), is an interactive installation built around a custom-trained audio model that translates physical force into sound and image in real time. It has been presented at MIRA Festival, OFFF Festival, and Light Nights Festival (St. Petersburg).

She holds a Master's in Digital Arts and Creative Technologies from La Salle University Barcelona and a Certificate in Advanced Sound Design from the Catalyst Institute of Arts & Technology, Berlin.
