A composition for the Broekpolder VINEX location: Great New Town / A Different View
About dismantling a pop song in about 15 minutes. It describes the boundary of dusk, when the day ends, and the evening begins. Ideally the best time to listen to this music.

Under the surface
(Over het IJ, Frascati)
I previously composed some music for Marjolijn van Heemstra's theatrical solos Astronaut and Submarine. We then continued to make songs of her poems and other texts, it all came together: Under the Surface, an imaginary journey to the bottom of the ocean. At the Over het IJ festival we presented this somewhat bizarre show from the port of Amsterdam, onboard the Greenpeace vessel Sirius.

In warehouse 'V&D' in the city of Leiden, we made the- affectionately abbreviated "Her Lives" or, in a more gloomy mood, "Her Deaths '.
