Arktet

Born: January 1, 1970

These are playable audiovisual environments, like game worlds, coded to generatively compose on the fly, different every time they're played. Rob on saxes and flute, and Niko on drums, respond to and build upon these environments, using their immense experience in improvisation to create immersive new worlds of sonic experience.
