Amsterdam-based Igor Zinken (1981, the Netherlands) veers, under the moniker 'igorski', towards creative use of technology, composing music / sound design and developing music-related software, all while singing along loudly to music behind a standing desk.

Apart from writing usable applications, there are several contributions to the open source community, many of which are listed on this website. While technology is great for making life easier, knowing how to make things do stuff they perhaps weren't designed to do, makes life a lot more interesting!

Or at least fun.

Having been musically active for over two decades, my endeavours ranged from stints in ridiculous two-day punk outfits to being responsible for anything from playing mandolin parts to writing synthesizer lines on a GameBoy or dragging rusty materials over a microphonic membrane.

Together with a passion for creating self-generating art (both visual and auditory), aforementioned activities culminated in the lo-fi "art-noise performances" which over the years have been spread over several artistic identities/"bands". Satisfaction often lies in chaos, whether controllable or not.
