Alexis O'Hara is a Canadian transdiciplinary performer,^[1] born in Ottawa, Ontario, and currently living and working in Montreal, Quebec.

Since 1997, she has been active in the Montreal cabaret and experimental music scenes. O'Hara ran the Montreal poetry slam for several years before switching her focus to vocal and electronic music and interactive performance projects. Subject to Change and The Sorrow Sponge, two projects in which audience participation and electronic clothing are elements,^[2] have toured Canada, the United Kingdom, and Belgium. Her live and recorded work concerns itself with language, anthropomorphism, the human brain and heart, and social order.^{[citation needed]}

In 2009, she began working on immersive, interactive sound installations. SQUEEEEQUE - SPEAKERDOME,^[3] a dome built entirely from recycled speakerboxes, was presented at numerous media art festivals in Europe and Canada. The work was the first acquisition to Basel's Haus der Elektronische Kunst's media art collection.^[4][5]
