Jacqueline Humbert

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jacqueline Humbert is an American recording, performance and visual artist, as well as a designer for film, television and live performing arts.[1][2][3][4] Under the name J. Jasmine, she recorded a song cycle, J Jasmine: My New Music (with collaborators David Rosenboom and ) which dealt progressively with topics such as androgyny and female sexual agency. The cycle was presented at the Ann Arbor Film Festival in 1978.[5] Her artistic persona on this release has been described as "a Linda Ronstadt for the avant garde".[5] She would collaborate again with Rosenboom (and percussionist William Winant) in 1979-80 on the song cycle Daytime Viewing (released 1983), which uses the framework of soap operas to deal with themes of commercialism, family, fashion, and abuse.[3]

She enjoyed a longstanding working relationship with the avant-garde opera composer Robert Ashley.[4]

Biofeedback artworks[]

In the 1970s Humbert created several artworks based on biofeedback devices while in the research lab of David Rosenboom at York University, Canada: Alpha Garden (1973), Brainwave Etch-A-Sketch (1974) and Chilean Drought (Rosenboom & Humbert, 1974).[6]
