Stephen Taylor, professor and composer
University of Illinois professor Stephen Taylor is a composer and teacher. He composes and arranges a wide variety of music for pop bands - Pink Martini is but one example – but also transforms data sets, such as DNA, into music. He says, "I think music is always about something...what I'm trying to do now is do pieces about data that we have out in the world."
