Simon Halsberghe’s work is situated in the twilight zone between music, sound art, film, media and the visual arts. He is also a sound designer for theater, fashion shows and media productions. He believes that music is peripheral to itself, indicating what it can be instead of aiming for absolute definition. Musically his work stands for playful compositions drenched in techno, electro and ambient influences, subtly sketching out a deeper meaning beyond the playfulness and often colorful palette of his sound. He recently released the It’s a Free Magma album, intent on bridging the realms of music and mathematics. In the context of the renewed interest in computational processes in music and audiovisual media art, Halsberghe explores their contemporary influence on the practice of computer music.
