Established in 2003, SofIA is an emerging avant-garde collective of virtuoso performers, composers and computer musicians. Current members include Juraj Kojs, Spencer Topel and Paula Matthusen. SofIA focuses on explorations of the relationships between performing with the traditional and ethnic instruments, everyday objects, musical toys, hardware devices and computer technologies. Real-time amalgamation of instruments and physical materials with virtual sonic models and high–level signal processing methods make SofIA a unique force on the experimental music scene. Their cross-modal performances often engage sonic, tactile and visual elements. SofIA events are genre-transgressive, frequently morphing elements of polyrhythmic beats with ambient, minimal, noise and experimental electroacoustica.

SofIA has performed in alternative venues such as galleries, underground performance spaces and record shops. The past performances have included solo and joint concerts in Italy, Slovakia, Germany, Turkey, Denmark, the Netherlands and the US.
