I studied architecture at the Technical University in Delft during the early 1980s. During this study I became more and more involved in experimentation with music and sound, sonic phenomena, and music history (with a focus on electronic and electroacoustic music). Sharpening my artistic beliefs by experimentation, study of music history, correspondence and conversations with composers, writing essays, reviewing concerts and musical releases I came to the decision that architecture had no place in my future life. I toured the country and parts of Europe with electroacoustic ensemble THU20 and released my own music through various (underground) channels. Although most of my work has been solo, I have also collaborated with other artists such as Atty Bax (music for performance), Janetta Adriana (music for film), Antje Guenter (technical advice for sound installation), Mark Lyken (production for sound installation), Alexander Korsmit (music for an exhibition), Zeno van de Broek (post-production), Frans de Waard, Wouter Jaspers and Roel Meelkop(improvisation performances).
