::: ROBERT HENKE BIO :::
Robert Henke a.k.a. Monolake, born 1969, is a composer, sound designer, software developer, installation artist and performer. His music has roots in academic sound research as well as in club culture, and the result is a body of work that is sophisticated yet accessible. Henke's musical and performative work is about space and its exploration in different time scales, it is about the impact of massive gestures and precisely shaped details in the background. Many of his works can be perceived as potentially endless sonic states inviting the audience to immerse themselves completely for a freely defined amount of time.

Robert Henke releases music under his own name and as Monolake; his performances and interactive installations have been shown at places like the Tate Modern in London, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, MUDAM in Luxembourg, and the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney. In 2007 his work Layering Buddha received an honorary mention at the Prix Ars Electronica. Robert Henke is one of the authors of the Ableton Live music software, and teaches as professor for sound design at the University of Arts in Berlin.
