Hello there! My name is Amber Cortes. I’m a writer, producer, and sound artist currently living in Seattle.

I’ve written for The Guardian, Vice, Grist, The Seattle Times, The Stranger, and more. You can read some of my writings here. I’ve produced radio for WBAI, WNYC, KBCS, KUOW, and KALW. You can listen to some of those pieces here.

I’ve perfected the art of omelette-making.

I also occasionally have been known to make weird sound and transmission-based art, dress up as a giant sea cucumber for the sake of contemporary dance, and make short documentaries about female Lucha Libre wrestlers.

I like dresses with pockets, dessert coffee, nerds, being an Instagram artiste, going to flea markets, reading, mad podcasts, traveling, anything analog.

I just got this super-rad vintage Suzuki Omnichord and I’m learning to play songs on it.

I am abundantly contact-able through a variety of social media networking channels on the internets.

Find / follow / friend me if so inclined.

I think that’s about it. Oh wait! Here’s a picture of some alpacas wearing sweaters:

Ok. That is all.
