John Coulter is a Senior Lecturer, and the Coordinator of Sonic Arts Programmes at the School of Music, National Institute of Creative Arts and Industries, University of Auckland. As a teacher working in the Composition Area, he spends much of his time focused on facilitating the needs of the ‘21st-century musician’ — supporting men and women who compose, perform, fabricate, innovate, and make use of technology; who study and research the language of music and sound; and who use their individual and collective heritage as a source of musical inspiration. John is a member of several international organisations that uphold this holistic approach to music making, and has presented both academic papers and creative works in several countries throughout the world including Australia, Canada, China, France, New Zealand, Singapore, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America.
