sound within mediated environments. Norbert’s artistic work can be
described as amergent music – an innovative generative style that uses
artificial life systems to sustain continuous, real-time modification and
adaptation. Using this approach he is focused on creating sound and
music in digital environments for art, entertainment and
communications. Norbert is a Ph.D. candidate in the Planetary
Collegium through the University of Plymouth, UK where he studies
under the supervision of John Matthias, Roy Ascott and Brian Eno. His
works have been performed/exhibited in Europe, Asia, South America
and in the United States. Current projects can be heard online at
