I am a composer and performing musician working across film, theatre, and visual art. My music has been part of award-winning projects and has been presented in theatres and venues in more than 20 countries worldwide. I grew up in Berlin, spent six years in Amsterdam, and since 2015 I have been living in Switzerland.
Coming from a background as an improvising musician, I carry the spirit of improvisation into my compositions. I like to work with electric and acoustic instruments, effects, sound objects, and my own sound design, always striving for a personal sound language that connects acoustic textures with contemporary digital processing.
In recent years, I composed for the feature documentary Pushing Boundaries and the Student Academy Award finalist Out of Ordinary. My music for the short film Dagu was presented at the African Film Festival in Luxor and the 55th Solothurn Film Festival. I also create music for Swiss national television (SRF).
In theatre and dance, I collaborated with choreographer Simon Tanguy’s company Propagande C on two productions at Théâtre de la Ville in Paris, and toured nationally in the Netherlands with Dorottya Kiss. Since moving to Switzerland, I have been writing music for many productions at Bühne Aarau together with Cornelia Hanselmann, Ruth Huber, Jonas Egloff, Aron Yeshitila, Andreas Bürgisser, Neel Jansen, and Graciela Martinez Arribas.
I also composed the music for the VR game Flotsam Fluke, commissioned by CineKid Amsterdam, the world’s largest children’s media festival. The project won the CineKid Audience Award and was nominated for the Dutch Creativity Award.
With my live project Clashvoid (together with designer Stefan Schäfer), I have performed at the World Design Capital in Cape Town, the Cité du Design Biennale in Saint-Étienne, the Graphic Design Festival in Chaumont, as well as numerous venues in the Netherlands, Germany, France, and Belgium.
Today, I live in Aarau, Switzerland, and I am a member of SUISA, SMECA, and Buma/Stemra.
