Marcus Schmickler lives and works in Cologne, Germany. He is a classically trained composer and electronic musician, a versatile artist of many faces. His compositions contribute to the tradition of German academic electronic and electroacoustic music, and at the same time relate to the latest trends in today‘s electronic avant-garde. He is also an active improviser, working in different configurations with other improvising instrumentalists, in this context mainly using computer. His interest in more conventional forms of music is reflected in his activity with the Pluramon project as well as in his extensive work in the fields of theatre, radio-play and film.
