Hans W. Koch

Hans W. Koch (Cologne) is active as composer, performer and soundartist. From 1988-1995 he studied composition with [a144321] at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz in Cologne. He considers art sculpting thoughts in different materials and personally favours conceptual approaches: more thought, less material. Exploring (de)faults of soft- and hardware results in the use of computers as musical instruments in a rather physical manner. His works have been commissioned by and presented at numerous festivals and occasions both nationally and internationally. In 2008 his piece "the benchmark consort" won an award of distinction at the Ars Electronica festival in Linz/Austria.
