Biography

Baśak Günak also known as Ah! Kosmos is a composer, sound artist and performer. She released two LPs from Compost Records & Denovali Records and numerous EPs. Both timeless and otherworldly, Günak’s work unconsciously defies being tied to a genre, tapping into something beyond an immediate surrounding or experience to communicate something more transcendental. Günak uses polyrhythms, electronic composition and found sounds to build a mystical world of modulation into which one can sink and be carried away, Günak pursues her sound experimentations as a sound artist, composing soundscapes for theatre, contemporary dance, film and visual art projects, and realising site-specific performances. Her works have been featured worldwide in several festivals and institutions, such as Barbican Theatre, Berlin CTM, Sonar Festival, Rotterdamse Schouwburg, Prague Quadrennial and Istanbul International Theatre Festival. On live performances, performing solo or accompanied by a guitarist, she has supported Sigur Rós, Jonny Greenwood, Darkside, Kiasmos, James Holden and toured in UK with Julia Holter. In 2020, she has presented her latest solo sound installation THE WELL, a piece for 11 speakers and performance in VKV Museum Istanbul. She has recently done composition and sound design for Berlin State Museums, Kunstmuseum Basel and granted for a residency in HELLERAU for her upcoming sound installation.
