For Brooklyn native Yseult Tyler, production work with the Greene Space represents a fabulous conjunction of her project-management expertise and her passion for the arts and for learning.  Yseult’s prior work experience includes such adventures as floor management of the Guggenheim Museum, daily supervision of a homeless shelter for women, and operations strategy development for a technical start-up. 

In addition to her work at the Greene Space, Yseult is a singer and multi-instrumentalist.  She fronts the band Quiet Lights and is writing a song-cycle inspired by recent classes in advanced mathematics and biochemistry.  Her music has been reviewed as “a gorgeous, dream-like crafting of heart-rendering harmonies” and “music that can make you love clouds and storms and vast open spaces, somehow both dark and light at once”.   When time allows, Yseult volunteers as a drum instructor and band-coach for Willie Mae Rock Camp for Girls. 

Yseult’s favorite show on NYPR is David Garland’s Spinning on Air.  It would be impossible to choose a favorite Greene Space show but 2011’s Trout Week was a highlight, especially the Jack Quartet’s muscular rendition of Tetras by her favorite composer Iannis Xenakis (who also lived in the intersection of music, aesthetics, and math).
