Jassie Rios is an interdisciplinary sound artist, DJ, poet and yogini. Inspired by science and technology, her work aims to create hybrid ecosystems that amplify the relationship between humans, technology and the natural world through the lens of electronic drawing, music and hip-hop philosophy. She relies on formal training in music and drawing, composition and sound design to create hybrid instruments, experimental performances and interactive installations that function as philosophical tools to engage with space and community and activate questions about the world around us.

Referred to as the "X-Prize" for electroacoustic instrument design by Wired magazine, Jassie is the first woman to win the Guthman Musical Instrument Competition at Georgia Tech with her hybrid turntable, gramFX. Her work has been presented at spaces such as the ShapeShifter Lab in NY, the Rhizome DC and the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Stevens Institute for Technology and the Torpedo Factory in Arlington, VA.

A dedicated teaching artist, she has extensive experience teaching art in public education, non-profit organizations and the private sector, designing curriculum, implementing workshops and developing community outreach and educational programs. She holds a K-12 advanced professional certification in visual arts and a 200 TTC (Yoga Teacher training) certification in Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga.
