JAZZING FRAMES
Robin Coops is a multi-disciplinary artist based in the Netherlands. He studied directing at the institute of performative arts in Maastricht and finished his Master’s at the Royal Conservatory of Music in The Hague, in close collaboration with the composition department. Interested in the tension between control and losing control, he explores how we are guided by, or able to manipulate political, technological and social systems and how we can move freely in the given circumstances. In his work he uses technology to research the tension between the analogue body and the digital machine. Genres like horror and tech-noir are used as a device to emphasize these themes. In his work he puts different disciplines into a dialogue to create a single unified composition. The results are films, performative installations and audio-visual concerts. www.robincoops.com
