Thomas Ankersmit

Thomas Ankersmit is a Berlin-based musician and installation artist known for his experimental and avant-garde approach to sound creation. Born in 1979 in Leiden, the Netherlands, Ankersmit has crafted a unique path in the field of electronic and electroacoustic music. He primarily works with modular synthesizers, digital signal processing, and saxophone to evoke an expansive range of auditory experiences. Ankersmit combines a scholarly interest in the physics of sound with a meaningful exploration of how the perception of sound can physically and psychologically impact the listener.

Ankersmit's discography is a testament to his dedication to both the intellectual and sensory facets of sound art. His recent release "Perceptual Geography" is inspired by the work of American sound artist Maryanne Amacher and showcases Ankersmit's finely tuned ability to manipulate frequencies and spatialization. The album "Homage To Dick Raaijmakers" is a tribute to the Dutch pioneer of electronic music and reflects Ankersmit's deep respect for the legacy of experimental sound exploration. The artist's earlier works, such as "Figueroa Terrace," "Forma II," and "Live In Utrecht," demonstrate his evolution as an artist who is as comfortable performing in live settings as he is contemplating the intricacies of sound in the studio. Ankersmit's body of work continues to challenge and intrigue, placing him at the forefront of contemporary sound art and experimental music.
