Scott F. Hall, b. 1963, California, U.S.A.
Scott F. Hall is an intermedia artist. Hall’s creative work melds sound, sculpture, photography, video, and graphic design into an integrated practice known as "Scultura Sana". Within this unique paradigm, Hall produces sculptural objects and sound installations for gallery exhibition. When Scultura Sana is experienced remotely, each viewer's computer becomes part of a large scale, networked art object. Ultimately, the sonic art component of Hall's work is archived onto CD for distribution to an international audience.
