Jason Grier is a sound artist, songwriter, curator and developer from San Francisco.

He is Human Ear's creator and art director. Known to by Human Ear people as it's "connector," his curatorial efforts seek to define the intersection of ever-increasing directions in contemporary art music. He has, is, or will soon work with every single artist listed here.

His music takes two forms: Large-scale sound objects (concerned with communal hearing as an impersonal structure) and insular pop-soul (rarely heard and quite personal.) The latter is a favorite listen of many Human Ear artists, including Ariel Pink, Black Powder, and Nite Jewel. They've mainly acquired new tracks (since 2007's Black & White Rainbow) by sneaking them out of his house.

When not recording, curating, organizing, mobilizing (and ocassionally, policing) the Human Ear world, Jason builds Javascript apps in San Francisco, California.
