Travis Weller is a composer and violinist based in Austin. He currently composes for and performs in a number of organizations including the Gates Ensemble, the Golden Hornet Project, the Imbroglio String Quartet, and the Austin New Music Co-op. He has been commissioned by ensembles in New York, Scotland, and Holland and has participated in a composer's residency program at STEIM in Amsterdam. An avid interpreter of new music, Travis has performed a wide variety of contemporary music from mid-20th century onward and has worked directly with many internationally known composers including John Butcher, Phill Niblock, Olivia Block, Fred Lonberg-Holm, Pauline Oliveros, and Arnold Dreyblatt.

As a composer, Travis is largely an autodidact. His first compositions were solo works incorporating acoustic instruments, synthesis, sampling and multitrack techniques. These projects eventually led him into the realm of soundtracks for film and pieces for performance. Today, his compositions are more experimental in nature exploring the productive tensions between noise and tone oriented material; open and fixed constructions; stable and unstable sounds.

Travis also organizes events through the New Music Co-op and is Performance Director of the Austin Museum of Digital Art.
