Chiasm, pronounced as the greek letter X, /kai/, rhyming with sky, then "asm" is an industrial-influenced electronic solo music project of Detroit-based musician, Emileigh Rohn. The name Chiasm or the optic Chiasm is a neuronal brain structure shaped as an "X" that allows people to have continuous and peripheral vision. The name was chosen because of her dedication, love and passion and full-time career in science and molecular biology.Chiasm is known for cultivating lush, eclectic, eerily dystopian sonic landscapes with delicately balanced vocals for over 20 years. All of her previous releases had been self-written, programmed, performed and produced in her Michigan studio, the MausHaus.

She has contributed to several compilation releases, collaborated with numerous artists and performed dozens of shows through the early 2000s alongside many well-known industrial acts. Her song "Isolated" featured on her album "Disorder" (2001) was on the Vampire the Masquerade, "Bloodlines" PC game or in the Navy:NCIS episode, "Marine Down." She also released the albums the Chiasm vs. TL5 remix collection, "Divided We Fall: The Remix Collection" (2003), "Relapse" (2005), "Prefrontal" (EP 2006), "Reform" (2008), "Apple Island" (EP 2009), "Obligatory" (EP2012), "11:11" (2012), "Mice On A Wheel" (EP 2016) "In Hiding" (EP 2019), and her full-length solo album "Reset" (2019).
