Alex Mendizabal


Kees Tazelaar (July 27, 1962) was taught at the Institute of Sonology 
from 1981 to 1983 (Utrecht) and from 1987 to 1989 (The Hague). He 
subsequently studied composition with Jan Boerman at the Royal 
Conservatory in The Hague, graduating in 1993. Since then Tazelaar has 
been teaching at the Institute of Sonology. He is head of Sonology since 
June 2006.
In addition to his own autonomous works, he has contributed to music 
theatre projects by Dick Raaijmakers (Die glückliche Hand geöffnet, 
Scheuer im Haag) and Theatergroep Hollandia (Perzen, Varkensstal).
In recent years he has also been occupied intensively in the restoration 
and reconstruction of major electronic works from the past. In his 
specially equipped studio new versions have been made of compositions by 
Gottfried Michael Koenig (Klangfiguren II, Essay, Terminus), Jan Boerman 
(Kompositie 1972, Ruïne), Edgard Varèse (Poème Électronique), Iannis 
Xenakis (Concret P-H), György Ligeti (Pièce Électronique no.3, 
Artikulation), Luctor Ponse (Concerto voor Piano en Band).
Since June 2005, Tazelaar is a visiting research fellow of the 
University of Bath, UK, and as such participated in the VEP (Virtual 
Electronic Poem) project.
During the winter semester of 2005-2006, Kees Tazelaar filled the Edgard 
Varèse Guest Professorship at the Technical University of Berlin.

Marianne Dekker (*1953) studied painting and graphic arts at the Royal 
Academy of Art in The Hague. Her work consists of drawings and paintings 
(small to medium sized) and short digital animations based on stills and 
videos.
After her studies she used strong colours and figurative images. Then 
came a period of drawing more sober coloured geometrical lines, 
characters and signs, after which her work became completely abstract. 
In her current work, colours are more exuberant again.
In 2004 she started photographing in her studio. She takes pictures and 
makes films of (details of) her own drawings and of small daily life 
objects. She uses these pictures as material for making animation 
movies. The electronic music for these animations is made by composer 
Kees Tazelaar.
Videowork has been presented at Metropoliskino in Hamburg, Tesla Galerie 
in Berlin, the 2009 Shanghai Electroacoustic Music Week, the 
Contemporary Museum of the National University in Mexico City (MUAC), 
the Institute for Contemporary Interdisciplinary Arts at the University 
of Bath and Fylkingen in Stockholm.

Alberto De Campo

Concert Title: Metacontrol Studies
Description: Based on recent experiments with more indirect forms of 
control ('Lose control, gain influence'), this performance will be an 
attempt to formulate a balance between gradually relinquishing control 
of the sounding
processes in play and handling the ensuing surprises gracefully.

Bio: Alberto de Campo is a composer and performer, and teaches 
Generative Art/Computational Art. He explores a wide range of topics in 
collaborations with other artists and students: Code-based network music 
performance,
biologically informed/inspired art such as the project Varia 
Zoosystematica, hybrid audiovisual performance instruments and 
interactive systems, and
improvisation strategies in different contexts. Since 2009, he is 
Professor for Generative Art/Computational Art at the University for the 
Arts Berlin.

Alex Mendizabal (Donostia, 1961. Does as romans do)

Seven crickets in one and a half tone, as a pendulum

Passive sonar listens without transmitting
music deals with passive listening

A bird call that might shift two distant points
accelerates the close action of an oscillator (not the retro action)
