one of the leading artists in the field of electronic club music 
culture. Henke has released more than twenty albums. His performances

London, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the PS1 in New York and the

“Layering Buddha” received an honorary mention at Ars Electronica in 2007.

Tarik Barri is a Dutch audiovisual composer and software developer. He 
started programming at the age of seven and has been making electronic 
music since he was a teenager. After his first official musical releases 
at the age of twenty one, he quit his studies in biological psychology 
to pursue the study of music and technology at the Utrecht School of 
Music and Technology. During this studies he saw how the methods he used 
to create music could be adapted for the moving image. He programmed his 
own software to develop new tools for audio-visual performance, 
composition and data representation.
