Chiasm is a solo female electro project from Detroit, MI created by Emileigh Rohn in 1997. She is currently writing and recording a new full-length album, "11:11".Classically trained in piano since the age of 5, she began writing songs and finally assembled a demo album, "Embryonic", self-released in 1998. In 1999, Chiasm was signed to COP International records, and the track "Chiasm" appeared on their compilation album "Diva X Machina vol. 3".
Her debut album, Chiasm - "Disorder", was released in 2001, featuring her track, "Isolated" as heard in the PC game, "VAMPIRE:The Masquerade-"Bloodlines" and the CBS television show, "Navy:NCIS".
The name Chiasm comes from the greek letter "X", pronounced chi ("c" sounds like a "k" and rhymes with sky) which she chose in relation to the crossing of optic neurons in the brain allowing us to have continuous and peripheral vision. In the same way, the project began during a time she considered a point of crossing over, and the project allows for the maintainence of a full and reflective view of the world as opposed to the narrow focus she often encountered.
Chiasm albums and EPs, "Disorder", "Relapse", "Prefrontal", and a remix album titled "Divided We Fall" as well as her most recent full-length album, "REFORM", and an exclusive iTunes EP, "Apple Island", are available through COP International records and on iTunes and Amazon.com.
Chiasm is known to perform in the midwest United States and remix and collaborate with other artists when the creative opportunity arises.
