is Amsterdam-based artist with a particular focus in sound,
new media, real-time interaction, and questions of contemporary
mediation in relation to the sense of (bodily) presence. His recent work
consists of spatial and sound installations, events and interventions,
where (un)mediated sonic events act as central element that affectively
evokes human bodily presence, while signaling its physical absence. His
works encompass interdisciplinary and mixed media installations, sound
interventions and electro acoustic music.
He earned his PhD equivalent in Artistic Research from Faculty
of Fine Art at University in Bergen, Norway, where he was the recipient
of Norwegian Artistic Research Fellowship (2013–2016).
Has worked with Sploh Institute from the very
beginning; he has jointly co-created four albums:
Dvojnik (1999),
Tilt (2006),
Udarnik (2010) and
Neposlušno (2012). In recent years he has been especially
active as the author of the
Surface Studies,

Reading Reading multimedia
projects.
