Sharing a passion for experimentation and adventure, they started as free improvisors and evolved into performers and composers of contemporary music. As Jasper & Jasper, their aesthetic profile is unique: from their experience with traditional instruments they develop the physical and tangible aspects of their custom built electronic instruments. Tension, curiosity, sound, image, theater, humor, dance and movement contribute to an intense concert experience. Together they performed in many places around Europe.

He leads an experimental music group at the Music Academy De Vonk in Oud-Heverlee and another group at SLAC, the Music Conservatory in Leuven.

This software has been used in many Music Academies in Belgium.
