The following work presents the use of electronic means of sound manipulation and generation, and more generally, the use of technology in my recent compositions. This dissertation attempts to frame creative practice through the interdependence of imagination and technique as two distinct operatives that shape my understanding of artistic production. Concerning technique, the tools employed in my creative practice are explained and subsequently exemplified in three compositions. The use of live electronic tools is then framed in relation to the different functions they assume (complementation/completion, projection, and initiation) in each of the compositions. This framing has been chosen to articulate the way in which technique and imagination relate to each other in my creative process, and consequently, to conceptualize a creative intentionality regarding the use of tools in the scope of composition.
