The Substation/​ Artist/​Jana Irmert/

Jana Irmert is a Berlin-based sound artist and composer working across spatial composition, film and live performance. Her practice explores the liminal space between musical sound and noise, using extensive experimentation with field recordings to shape immersive sonic environments. Engaging with themes of temporality and impermanence—particularly in the context of ecological crisis—she creates atmospheric sound worlds that embrace dissonance and fragility as reflections of our reality.

Her work has been released on labels including Fabrique Records, Important Records, and Longform Editions. As a composer and sound designer, she has contributed to award-winning feature films, documentaries, VR experiences, and video installations. She has performed at international festivals and institutions such as Berlin Atonal, GRM (Paris), Extreme Chill (Reykjavik), and Elevate Festival (Austria).
