Toykan Efe Kahraman (b.1999, Izmir, Turkey) is a composer based in Izmir who focuses on treating sound as a single hybrid entity derived from the dialectical juxtaposition of elements, namely "rigidity - fluidity," resulting from the combination of organism. This individual enjoys portraying sonorous narratives, and this inclination consistently transforms their behavior into a sonic experiment.
