David Galbraith is a composer and media artist who lives and works in New York.

Galbraith explores the couplings between art, music, technology and the body through his installations, video works, and performances using self-built electronics. Galbraith received a 2009 Distribution Grant for New York State Artists and is a 2009 Artist In Residence at Harvestworks Digital Arts Center.

In 2005 Galbraith's 10-channel sound installation Composition 2005 No. 1: Two Straight Lines Displaced, Nudged and Gently Spun was shown at Diapason Gallery. An excerpt orchestrated for cello, analog synthesizer and digital oscillators was premiered by the Either/Or ensemble (Alex Waterman, cello).

In 2006 Galbraith received a Finishing Funds grant from the Experimental Television Center/NYSCA for a single-channel video work created with his self-developed software for sound and image. Galbraith enhanced the software in 2007 to interface with analog synthesizers at STEIM (Studio for Electro-Instrumental Music) in Amsterdam.

Galbraith's visual work has been presented internationally at P.S.1/MoMA, The New Museum of Contemporary Art, and KW Institute of Contemporary Art (Berlin), among others.
