Nicole Skeltys is an Australian composer, writer and presenter, currently based in Pittsburgh, USA. From 1993 to 2003 she was part of B(if)tek, an Australian electronica and dance act. Skeltys also released electronic music under the name Artificial during this period and was a member of Clan Analogue. Since 2002 she has been the writer for the webcomic Pigeon Coup[1] with comic artist Aaron Doty (an episode of which appeared in Tango Seven). Since 2004, Skeltys has moved away from pure electronica.[2] She established a Melbourne-based band Dust,[3] best described as psychedelic country/folk, consisting of vocals, keyboards, guitar, bass and drums. In late 2007, she established a psychedelic folk duo called The Jilted Brides [4] with an American filmmaker and photographer Tanya Andrea Stadelmann, and took up a number of artist residencies across the USA.[5] In 2009 Skeltys became an artist in residence at Pittsburgh Filmmakers.
