Lorcan is currently in his final year of the Music and Media Technologies Master's course at Trinity College Dublin. Primarily a violin player, he has studied both classical and trad violin, and has collaborated with artists like Tadhg Cooke and David Geraghty (of Bell X1).Lorcan is also a true Bass, and performs regularly with Trinity College Chapel choir and the acclaimed Mornington Singers. Uniquely suited for the world of composition, Lorcan can see music from many different vantage points: he holds a BA in Digital Media from the University of Wolverhampton and a BA in Music (specialisation in Musicology) from Trinity College Dublin. He has toured Europe as an Irish dancer, and Ireland as a member of several musical and dramatic groups. He is also a former Board member of the Mill Theatre, Dundrum. Lorcan has composed several works for small and large ensembles, at present he is working on a mass for four voices, and a collaboration project with sculptor James Horn.  This project is a composition for wire-strung harp and electronics. The idea of the project is to create two sonic worlds, one of the harp and one of the electronics.

Through variation these two worlds begin to merge and the line dividing the harp and the electronic begins to break down. As this occurs, the listener should not be able to tell where one begins and one ends. 

The material for the electronics is generated from the harp itself, through algorithmic processes and predetermined samples.
