Thomas Ankersmit

Thomas Ankersmit (1979) studied at the Audiovisual Department of the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam, The School of Visual Arts in New York and the Electroacoustic Department of the Berlin University of the Arts. He is currently based in Berlin and his work includes music for saxophone, computer and synthesizers and installations with sound, infrasound and modifications to the acoustic characters of spaces. Influenced more by experimental and electroacoustic practices than (free) jazz, Ankersmit focusses on exploring the timbral extremes of the saxophone. His electronic music is constructed out of swarms of electro-mechanical micro-events with a acute sense for detail and intensity.
