Patrick Valiquet studied piano and organ and earned a BMus majoring in performance at McGill University in 2000 before turning his attention to electronic music and audio art. After several years of artistic practice he resumed formal studies in 2006 and went on to earn a Graduate Certificate in digital media design from Concordia University in 2008, and an MMus in electronic music from the Institute of Sonology at the Royal Conservatory of the Hague in 2010. His master's research on historical multichannel spatialisation practices in electroacoustic music was recognised with the Journal of New Music Research's Best Paper Award at the International Computer Music Association in the summer of 2011.
Patrick currently holds a doctoral research studentship on the project Music, Digitization, Mediation: Towards Interdisciplinary Musicology (MusDig) under the supervision of Professor Georgina Born, with funding from the European Research Council and a doctoral fellowship from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. His ethnographic and historical research focuses on the distribution and circulation of knowledge, practices and aesthetics among producers and promoters of electroacoustic and experimental electronic music. In 2011 and 2012 he is undertaking full-time field research in the Québécois city of Montreal to explore the ways that established patterns are being transformed in an era of near-ubiquitous digital mediation.
