Biographies

Ryoji Ikeda is a leading electronic composer and visual artist. Born in Japan and based in Paris and Kyoto, he orchestrates sound, visuals, physical phenomena and mathematical notions into immersive live performances and complex installations. His albums have pioneered a new world of minimal electronic music. Ikeda has been working on long-term projects through live performances, installations, books and recordings. His works spectra and supersymmetry were recently presented in London by Artangel and The Vinyl Factory, respectively.

Carsten Nicolai is a visual and sound artist, who seeks to overcome the separation between art forms and genres to create an integrated artistic approach. Based in Germany, Nicolai is influenced by scientific reference systems and often works with mathematic patterns such as grids and codes, as well as error, random and self-organising structures. Besides performing in clubs and concert halls, he has presented his audio-visual pieces at museums such as Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Centre Pompidou, Paris, and Tate Modern, London.
