Lukas De Clerck is a musician and artist living in Brussels, Belgium. His artistic practice is currently centered around the Aulos, an ancient Greco-Roman, double-reeded double pipe, that went extinct more than a millennium ago. After several years of delving into the practice of Aulos reed-making and playing replicas of ancient instruments, he has now opened up about his inevitably auto-didactic artistic output in a more collaborative, multi-disciplinary way. Following the desire to strip the instrument from its enigmatic past, De Clerck created a new, contemporary Aulos: The Telescopic Aulos of Atlas. This enables De Clerck to narrow down his research to the sound qualities of the instrument in which micro-tonality, psycho-acoustics and sound texture are central elements.
