Guest Lecture Bio:
Tim Blechmann was born and lives in a foreign country. He attended various scientific and artistic universities and has a degree in both fields. currently he works as freelance composer and music software developer, though he prefers to keep his research and artistic work separate, as research is for the brain and arts is for the heart.
He played a lot of improvised music, loud and quiet, on festivals and in living rooms, sometimes in europe, sometimes abroad, sometimes solo, sometimes in duos, which he considers as the most direct and intimate musical encounter. Always using free software, often his own. He also collaborated with like-minded fine artists, working on installations or abstract animations. His compositions are sometimes completely digital, sometimes involving analog material.
Most of his works are self-published on his website http://tim.klingt.org or his net-label http://mokabar.klingt.org.
He always has a strange feeling when writing about himself in the third person and usually prefers that people listen to his music instead of reading his biography and therefore tries to avoid any namedropping. He also encourages people to listen to his music unbiased in a concentrated, preferably dark environment in order to completely focus on listening.
