Over the past years, I’ve explored how technology can deepen musical performance. I’ve experimented widely, from connecting motion sensors to century-old church organs to inquiring the use of music as a way to communicate scientific ideas and how performers can interact with live scientific data. And lately, I’m diving into AI: how it can become a real-time creative partner, off and on stage.

Bio
As you probably have figured out by now or already knew: I'm a bass_clarinet specialist and (film)composer; and physics teacher. I studied clarinet at the Fontys Conservatory in Tilburg and specialised on bass_clarinet with the world-renowned bass_clarinetist Henri Bok Â. But before I started studying music, I studied at the Eindhoven University of Technology where I graduated in the field of physics.
Although I'm classically trained, I enjoy exploring many musical worlds and technological possibilities; such influences can be heard in my compositions and performances, which often transcend genre definition.

As a performer I perform as a soloist, combining motion sensor tech with the bass_clarinet, and with various musicians, engineers and ensembles, including popduo Meander and my trio Rodinia.
As a composer I made my first success with "Wals van Fantasie", a composition for concert band, which has been performed in various countries. In May 2016, one of my compositions, "Binary Digits", a work for wind ensemble and percussion regarding the basic computer language, was well received by musicians, press and public. In addition to composing for large ensembles, I also compose works for smaller ensembles and short films.
Since October 2020 I'm the artistic director of the MuST foundation. MuST, founded by myself, organises and supports project in the fields of music, science and technology.
At Microlab at Strijp-S, Eindhoven (NL) I have my own nice studio. This is the place where I experiment, rehearse, work on new composition, make recordings and where I teach (bass) clarinet. If you happen to be in the neighbourhood, please feel welcomeui to visit me!
