I am a transmedia composer and curator. At the moment, I am working with Julika Bosch on an opera project for 2027 for Wuppertal’s most beautiful swimming pool, the Schwimmoper.
In recent years, I have composed for Chorwerk Ruhr, installations by Chiharu Shiota and percussionist Vanessa Porter. I have been a guest at institutions such as the Kunstsammlung NRW, the Kunststiftung Baden-Württemberg and the Beethovenfest Bonn. As a curator I have worked with and for artists such as Phillip Sollmann (Efdemin), Hanne Lippard and Jessica Ekomane.
Feel free to contact me.
The composition „hear here landscapes“ works with soundscapes of the places Bad Münstereifel, Nettersheim and Kronenburg. Inspired by the places, their structures and stories, noises and sounds were transformed into a four-hour sound continuum. This continuum connects to the installation „Nuqta- the beginning“ by Chiharu Shiota. The textures of the long-lasting sound surface enter into an exchange with works by other composers, which are performed in the installation. I perform the four-hour composition live with electronics in the installation.
