About

Zeno van den Broek is a composer and artist who explores the intricate relationship between humans and technology. Through his audiovisual creations, he delves into how our interactions with fabricated environments shape our experiences. Van den Broek’s works challenge the conventional understanding of how we perceive and engage with technology-infused spaces. By creating intense and thought-provoking experiences, he disrupts our habitual consumption of these spaces and interactions, prompting us to venture beyond our comfort zones and actively explore new possibilities.

His intention is to generate moments of disruption, friction, and potential, awakening our sense of agency and urging us to break free from our routine engagement with technology. In doing so, he invites visitors to become active participants in his art, playing an integral role in its realization and leaving a lasting impact.

He is currently focusing on his Fast Forward Trajectory, supported by the Performing Arts Fund NL, which enables him to work with renowned international partners such as Percussions de Strasbourg to build valuable new bridges between bits and atoms. Zeno will be deepening the relationship between the human and the algorithmic, focusing on bringing together musicians and artificial performers on stage.

Zeno van den Broek frequently works with esteemed partners such as Gaudeamus, LI-MA and Slagwerk Den Haag. He presents his work at venues and festivals such as the International Film Festival Rotterdam, Old Church Amsterdam, Rewire and STRP.
