Pavel Niakhayeu

(Belarus)
I'm Pavel Niakhayeu (aka Pavel Ambiont, Nieviadomy Artyst), an electronic musician, A/V artist and researcher from Belarus. I'm currently based in Poland.

I have co-founded Mental Force Festival in Minsk and has been curating the A/V program of Artes Liberales art and education festival in Minsk. Since 2012 I'm running Force Carriers electronic music label.

In 2018 I've co-edited P.S.Soundscapes - a volume on sound and music studies in the Post-Socialist region.

In 2008-2022, I used to teach a course on Sound, Music and Technologies in Contemporary Cultures at the Department of Social Sciences at the European Humanities University (Vilnius, LT).

snaffle, snoodle

These fanciful-sounding words have no definitive origin: They probably just sounded right to someone who was sauntering, which is what they both mean. An Oxford English Dictionary (OED) example from 1821 describes someone “soodling up and down the street.” Credits to Mark Peters.
