Hello! I work with music, text, art and research, often relating to low-tech and handmade “digital” aesthetics. This is something I learned to appreciate at an early age in the demoscene subculture. I started making chipmusic in the 1990s and I’ve since released records and toured Europe, the Americas, Asia and Oceania.
Visuals have always been important to me and I’m especially interested in text-based visuals (ASCII, PETSCII, etc). I collaborate with coders, animators, VJs and video producers and I also create my own text graphics.
My art has been shown at prestigous events such as Transmediale and Ars Electronica. Robot music is a recent project that I do together with Jacob Remin.
Finally, I’m an independent researcher and I’ve published texts about the demoscene, chipmusic and text graphics since 2008. I run text-mode.org and I’m currently exploring the history of music software.
