Ankersmit and Niblock rip a hole in the space time continuum.
Performers Include:
Thomas Ankersmit
Thomas Ankersmit (born 1979, Leiden, the Netherlands) is a musician and installation artist based in Berlin and
Amsterdam. Initially a noise-music inspired saxophonist, his activities expanded to include live electronic music
and installation pieces based on architectural acoustics and infrasound. He has been performing solo and in
collaboration with other artists such as New York minimalist Phill Niblock, Kevin Drumm, Jim O'Rourke, Gert-Jan
Prins, Borbetomagus and Alvin Lucier since 1998. Since 2003, Ankersmit most frequently collaborates with Phill
Niblock and Milan-based electroacoustic improviser Giuseppe Ielasi.
Phil Niblock
Phill Niblock (born 2 October 1933, in Anderson, Indiana) is a minimalist composer, filmmaker, videographer,
and director of Experimental Intermedia, a foundation for avant-garde music based in New York.
Phill Niblock's music usually consists of simultaneous drones created from tape (later computer) manipulations of recorded pitches performed by
instrumentalists such as Rafael Toral, David First, Lee Ranaldo, and Thurston Moore, on Guitar Too, for Four (G2,44+1x2); and Ulrich Krieger, on Touch Food.
