My performance practice centers on experimentation, improvisation, and collaboration across borders and disciplines. As a flutist and founding member of in^set, I explore new sonic possibilities through works that blend electronics, text, movement, and graphic notation. I have performed in diverse settings, from experimental festivals in Mexico, Chile, and Germany to collaborative projects with artists like Los Tigres del Norte, and regularly premiere new works by composers from Latin America and beyond. My performances often emerge from collective processes, archival research, and community engagement.
Mi práctica interpretativa se centra en la experimentación, la improvisación y la colaboración a través de fronteras geográficas y disciplinas artísticas. Como flautista y miembro fundadora de in^set, exploro nuevas posibilidades sonoras mediante obras que integran electrónica, texto, movimiento y notación gráfica. He participado en festivales experimentales en México, Chile, Alemania y otros países, y he colaborado con artistas tan diversos como Los Tigres del Norte. Regularmente estreno obras de compositoras y compositores de América Latina y otros contextos, en proyectos que nacen de procesos colectivos, investigación archivística y trabajo en comunidad.

in^set is a flexible chamber ensemble dedicated to creation, improvisation and experimentation. Founded in 2018 by David Aguila (trumpet), Teresa Díaz de Cossio (flute), and Ilana Waniuk (violin), in^set is committed to commissioning and performing existing compositions which extends our respective instrumental practices beyond the confines of contemporary classical music. Our collaborative creative work seeks to explore the sonic and visual possibilities of everyday objects, digital and analog visual components and hacked electronics. As advocates for music of the present, we aim to foster artistic partnerships and alternative modes of concert presentation. Our activities include outreach workshops and performances geared towards sharing our passion for expanded methods of sound production.

Flautografías. Siete partituras gráficas creadas por Aldo Ruiz Alonso, Andre Alvarez, Gonzalo T. Alonso, Javier Auces, Rodrigo Pascale, Sandra Muciño y Uri Cisneros dentro del laboratorio de creación de partituras gráficas para flauta, realizado desde TRAMAS - espacios de experimentación artística, con el acompañamiento de Teresa Díaz de Cossio y Aldo Lombera
Las creaciones exploran diversos modos de trabajar con gráficos que transitan entre mutaciones de grafías de la notación instrumental convencional occidental, codificaciones gráficas que proponen recorridos por rostros, laberintos, tableros de juego y discos girables, así como provocaciones gráfico-poéticas expresadas a través de mezcolanzas entre el papel y la videopartitura. videos: www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbDtRwsdlsfD7eUTbcSHui7Mflz_ta-6H |

Archive is an ongoing modular, audiovisual project exploring memory, ritual and connection. Created by Ilana Waniuk (violin, live visuals, objects, sound design), and Teresa Díaz de Cossio (flutes, stop motion, objects, sound design), Archive consists of a series of modules--artifacts— intended to be used as invitations for collaborative audiovisual improvisation and experimentation. Inspired by the idea of a box of old photographs, memorabilia, and ephemera such as one might find at an archive—each linked to a distinct network of memories. Archive invites us to investigate how those intangible connections might be brought to life and explored through the medium of audiovisual performance.

Density Fellowship (2023–2025), selected as part of the inaugural class of Density Fellows, a two-year program led by Claire Chase in celebration of the tenth anniversary of Density 2036. As part of the fellowship, Teresa performed Sarah Hennies' Reservoir 2 at St. Paul’s Cathedral in San Diego (Nov 2024) with the San Diego New Verbal Workshop and light artist Allison O. Evans—a concert curated and produced by Project [BLANK]. Also took part in the Salty Series, presenting Marcos Balter's Pan and Matana Robert's Auricular Hearsay at Bread & Salt (San Diego), the University of Milwaukee, and Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, in collaboration with in^set and musicians from the Ensamble de Música Contemporanea de la Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, Ensenada, and community members.
