Performed with an international improvising electroacoustic quartet called Veiled Borders, with collaborators John Godfrey, Karen Power (Ireland) and Jane Rigler (USA). This multi-location online telematic performance was part of the International Network Music Festival, an innovative digital music, art and research festival that investigates the impact of networking technology on musical creation and performance practice.

Performed with a new international quartet project, Veiled Borders: Analog/Digital Hybridity with collaborators John Godfrey, Karen Power (Ireland) and Jane Rigler (USA). This multi-location online telematic performance was part of the Earth Day Art Mode 2020 ‘Music in Place’ online festival. (2020)

Premiered a new international quartet project, Veiled Borders: Analog/Digital Hybridity with collaborators John Godfrey, Karen Power (Ireland) and Jane Rigler (USA). The performance was part of the Irish Sound, Science, and Technology Association National Conference in Cork, Ireland, where he also performed Ujjayi, an improvisational duo project for flute and computer with Rigler. Ciufo led a masterclass on Extended Instrument Design and Improvisational Performance Practices for the students in the Experimental Sound Practice Masters program at the University College Cork, Ireland, and he presented an artist talk entitled Adventures in Electronic and Experimental Music for the students at the University College Cork, Ireland.

Received an RCN/UBE grant from the National Science Foundation (subaward from Appalachian State University) for “Connectomes for Undergraduate Neuroscience Education and Learning (CUNEL).” The project is for three years. (2022)
