Career

Mileece's debut studio album, Formations, was released in 2002 through Lo Recordings. Following that release, she toured with Múm, Mice Parade, and HIM. Her live show consisted of SuperCollider generative compositions with custom made instruments.
Mileece calls her sound art, aesthetic sonification, which is a way of relaying sound data into a representative mode that can be understood by all audiences.
In September 2015, at Sonos Studio LA, she exhibited a sound environment installation, called Sonic Garden, using plants and the Sonos Smart System. The installation was interactive and the audience were able to touch and interact with the plants.
