John Hollenbeck

Karlssonwilker has collaborated with the American composer and drummer John Hollenbeck since 2001. When we work with John, our job is to be as improvisational and experimental as he is in his music. We purposely don't listen to the albums and avoid pre-conceived ideas and intellectual thought as much as possible, instead allowing ourselves to start the process by playing around with various computer programs until we arrive at an image that surprises us and makes us smile. This process is not only a delight, it's also a way for us to make discoveries that influence our work and creativity as a whole.
