Robin Coops is a multi-disciplinary artist based in the Netherlands. He studied at the Institute of performative arts in Maastricht and followed the directing program. He finished his masters at the Royal Conservatory of Music in The Hague, in close collaboration with the composition department, and finished a second master at the Film-academy in Amsterdam. Robin is interested in the tension between control and losing control. How we are guided by political, technological and social systems, or how we manipulate them to move freely in the given circumstances. New technologies are important to this subject matter. In his work, he’s using technology to research the tension between the analog body and digital machine. www.robincoops.com
