Since 2023, when I found myself drawn to the art of craftsmanship of acoustic string instruments such as Lyre, African ngoni, kora, nyatiti, kalimbas etc. I turned my focus to performances with my own handmade instruments that I often tune in musical scales which transcend their cultural origin, intertwining with realtime electronic sound manipulation, effects, and multilayered vocal harmonies.
In many cultures, traditional music, as played by European bards, West African griots, or the poet-musicians of ancient Rome, served to tell stories, preserve history, and shape collective memory. In contrast, my aim is to create a space where time loses its linear structure and sound becomes a landscape that gently leads the listener into a dreamlike, almost meditative world.
The compositions are mostly improvised, often touched by a sense of experimentation, yet I always aim to remain musically honest to my inner emotions. My musical elements can feel subtly psychedelic and transcendent, perhaps even healing. Not in a therapeutic sense, but as a sonic experience that releases tension, opens inner space, and speaks to the subconscious.
Though I don’t recount historical tales like a bard, griot, or Roman poet, I see my music as an offering, a personal gift through which I share my deepest emotions, through a fictional / universal language, I aim to convey feelings that reach beyond words, beyond space and time.
After years of aliases, I’ve stripped away the layers to create music under my own name, a direct channel for the unfiltered echo of what moves me.
No masks, no metaphors. Just sound as intimate as my heart beats pulse.
In 2018, I delved into the audiovisual manipulation of biological feedback loops through my ICTUSCORDIS series. A collection of intimate performances centered on the human heartbeat as both subject and instrument. This included works such as ICTUSCORDIS: ‘’modulatio’’2018, ‘’dialogue’’2019, ‘’variatio’’2020, ‘’memoriae’’ 2021 and ‘’synchronicity’’ 2022 each exploring the heartbeat’s role as a living, physical, and artistic medium.
I incorporated real-time sound and biodata into live compositions, transforming cardiac rhythms into organic techno soundscapes and synchronised visual projections. These performances were staged across Europe, including London, Paris, Budapest’s, Ljubljana, Klagenfurt, and various festivals in Slovenia. Audiences encountered raw, unfiltered intimacy, where their collective pulse became part of the evolving narrative.
The series challenges the Anthropocene-era disconnection between humans and nature by placing the heartbeat in stark, inescapable contexts. By sonically and visually amplifying this primal rhythm, I aim to dissolve boundaries between body and mind, self and other. ICTUSCORDIS is not just artistic experimentation, it is a visceral inquiry into whether shared biological data could reawaken awareness of our interconnectedness.
In 2023 I collaborated with Inti Šraj and Matej Lazar, where I produced interactive soundscapes and video projections for a light installation ‘’Biti’’ which symbolically explored the impact of an individual on their environment. The installation showed how even mere human presence triggers changes in nature/ every action creates a ripple of reactions.
By challenging the anthropocentric view that ignores nature without human influence, the work reveals a dialogue emerging from our presence: just as the environment responds to us, we react to its stimuli. These feedback loops question the possibility of symbiosis with nature.
