Some weeks ago, a 13 year-old took her own life after being bullied and physically assaulted inside and outside of school and harassed online. Literally everyone she reached out to for help (school, police and social media moderators) did literally nothing to help, in some cases brushing it off as not worthy of their time, culminating into tragedy. For some reason this news story hit hard and the way I feel most comfortable to deal with such news is to express it in sound.
In this experimental piece, I use a form of minimalism, repeating the same 24 note wide dissonant chord spread over the virtual piano keyboard over and over, only varying individual note volumes and timings, bringing out some patterns hiding in the mess. Many attempts to say the same thing in a different way, ending in emptiness.

4 miniature pieces captured at a coronaproof online concert with experimental music in Ghent in march 2021 where I performed with my DIY interface Liederbord.

![[Experimental] Choratorium Spatialis - choir, field recordings and synths
An 8-channel spatial audio piece made for a local experimental music festival (Art of Sound) at the start of 2024. The experience as audience physically surrounded by 8 speakers was quite intense. This youtube stereo binaural remix can only provide a faint approximation. The piece starts very sober and gets more energetic/vibrant/exuberant/experimental as time progresses.
