Robert Henke\, born in Munich\, Germany\, builds and operates machines to create art. He pairs archaic concepts with computer sc ience in order to explore new aesthetic territories between composition\, < a href="http://www.monolake.de/concerts/index.html">performance and installation. Th e creation of his own instruments and tools and the results of using them a re two sides of the same artistic process.

\n

His art is focused on ca refully shaped textural details and gradual changes of repeating structures in different time scales. It is also about volume\, power and impact\, the tension between silence and noise\, and about the exploration of real and virtual audio visual spaces.

\n

Henke is a pioneer of multichannel sou nd\, using systems like wave field synthesis and ambisonics to create situations of total immer sion\, expanding the sonic experience of his performances beyond of what can be reproduced in stereo.
\nAlthough mainly known for his musical output\, Henke is also working in the f ield of installat ion\, both sound based and audio-visual. Currently he explores the usag e of high power lasers for an installation called 'Fragile Territories' wh ich will be shown this winter in Nantes\, France.

\n

Henke’s interest in the combination of art and technology is further evident in his contribu tions to the development of the music software 'Ableton Live'. For more tha n a decade since Ableton’s founding in 1999\, he has been central to the de velopment of Live\, which became the standard tool for electronic music pro duction and completely redefined the performance practice of electronic mus ic.

\n

Henke also writes and lectures about sound and the creative use of computers\, and holds a professorship in sound design at the Berlin University of Arts.

\n

For 2013 he has been selected as Mohr Visiting Artist at the music department of Stanford University\, where he will be teaching a class in c omputer music composition and performance.
