Bay Area experimental musician Dax Pierson has died aged 54.

 

Hailing from Oakland, Pierson cofounded experimental hip-hop groups Subtle and 13 & God, and was affiliated with the Anticon collective. In 2005, while on tour with Subtle, he was left paralysed from the chest down when the tour van hit a patch of black ice in Iowa. He sued Ford Motor Company for faulty design mechanics, arguing that the defective seat contributed to his life-threatening injuries, and was awarded $18.3 million.
