Arthur Henry Fork

With roots in avantgarde jazz, contemporary music, electro-acustic music and improvisation. His approach towards music has always tended for the unorthodox, studying the traditional only to later be able to destroy it. From jazz his main mentor is Ornette Coleman, his Harmolodics theory captured his attention as a student, transforming his understanding of musical composition and interpretation. From contemporary and electroacoustic music he got the inspiration to experiment with the deconstruction of sound elements, working with espatialization, noise, the preparation of an instrument, etc., and using them as part of a composition.Working primarily around the exploration of the guitar, for many years his conviction leaned towards generating sound through physically afecting his instrument and developing alternate ways to create sound. It wasn't until the early 90's that he started to work with electronic media and the guitar, which led him to open source programming on platforms such as MAX/MSP, Pure Data and Super Collider, among others. Trough this media he found new ways to de-construct the guitar, giving him endless possibilities on the instrument.He has travel the world wide with his music, living in the U.S.A., Europe, Asia, Africa and México.Has collaborated with diverse disciplines such as: Theater, Dance, Performance Art, Film and Multimedia Art and his work has been shown in important locations and festivals internationally.
