===================================
Zbigniew Karkowski (Poland)

茲比格涅夫•卡科夫斯基(Zbigniew Karkowski),1958年3月17日生於波蘭城市克拉可夫,為當今實驗音樂界最受矚目的人物之一。他的音樂創作十分廣泛,當代古典、工業音樂、實驗音樂,乃至流行音樂均有涉足。他也是國際知名高科技多媒體互動表演團體“感應器樂團”(Sensorband)的創始成員

從小接受正規嚴格古典音樂訓練的他,70年代卻受到朋克音樂浪潮洗禮,滿腦子都是The Clash和The Sex Pistols,而由他跟其他幾人在瑞典哥德堡組成的工業搖滾樂隊DNA,風格受Einsturzende Neubauten、Throbbing Gristle、Cabaret Voltaire等工業噪音鼻祖級樂隊的影響。

1985年,卡科夫斯基入讀哥德堡國立音樂學院學習作曲,又於哥德堡大學的音樂學系學習現代音樂美學,在Chalmers理工大學學習電腦音樂。在瑞典完成學業後,又在荷蘭 DenHaag市的皇家音樂學院學習了一年的聲學。在整個求學期間他利用暑假時間參加了許多大師開辦的作曲課程,所有授課的教師都是像梅西安、布列茲、Iannis Xenakis、Georges Aperghis等二十世紀偉大的作曲家,卻唯有Xenakis給他留下最深印象。“我被吸引絕不僅僅因為Xenakis的音樂,而是他那種打破學院派先鋒形式主義的表達方式。那是自然的和自覺的。”卡科夫斯基這樣評價自己的精神導師。

擁有深厚的音樂理論水準和自由的音樂創作態度的卡科夫斯基在完成了所有學業後正式開始了他的音樂生涯。他創作的多部電子原音、電腦音樂作品均獲歐洲多個音樂節演出,在美國也舉行一系列的巡迴演出和受邀製作電臺節目。同時他也寫傳統器樂,並曾受哥德堡交響樂團的委託寫過兩首管弦樂作品,另外還創作過一部歌劇和一些室內樂作品,由瑞典、波蘭、德國等地的職業樂團演出。1990年,他被阿姆斯特丹著名的STEIM電子錄音室聘為長期作曲家,這可是眾多作曲家夢寐以求的事。

在長達二十多年的創作生涯中,卡科夫斯基曾與許多不同的先鋒樂團、組合和樂手合作演出,除了他與田中能(Atau Tanaka)以及 Edwinvan der Heide組成著名的Sensorband,其他曾合作的還包括The Hafler Trio、Blixa Bargeld、秋田原美(Merzbow)、Stelarc、Kasper.T.Toeplitz、John Duncan、Aube(中島昭文)、古館徹夫(Tetsuo Furudate)、CCCC、岸野一之、Peter Rehberg、Francisco Lopez、Ulf Bilting、Xopher Davidson等。

Zbigniew Karkowski was born in 1958 in Krakow, Poland. He studied composition at the State College of Music in Gothenburg, Sweden, aesthetics of modern music at the University of Gothenburg's Department of Musicology, and computer music at the Chalmers University of Technology. After completing his studies in Sweden, he studied sonology for a year at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Den Haag, Netherlands. During his education, he also attended many summer composition master courses arranged by Centre Acanthes in Avignon and Aix-en-Provence, France, studying with Iannis Xenakis, Olivier Messiaen, Pierre Boulez, and Georges Aperghis, among others. He works actively as a composer of both acoustic and electroacoustic music. He has written pieces for large orchestra (commissioned and performed by the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra), plus an opera and several chamber music pieces that were performed by professional ensembles in Sweden, Poland, and Germany. He is a founding member of the electroacoustic music performance trio "Sensorband." Since 1995 he is based in Tokyo, Japan where he collaborates closely with japanese avantgarde scene. He has extensively toured in Europe, Asia, North America, South America and Australia and his music has been performed at several festivals

Besides working as a composer of contemporary music he has been collaborating with several experimental groups and artists like: The Hafler Trio, Blixa Bargeld, Merzbow, Stelarc, John Duncan, Aube, Tetsuo Furudate, CCCC, KK Null, Antimatter, Francisco Lopez, Kasper T. Toeplitz, Peter Rehberg, Li Chin Sung and has worked on remixing artists and bands like Iannis Xenakis, Clock DVA, Phauss, Jazzkammer, Florian Hecker, TV Pow, Rechenzentrum, Fred Bigot, Fear of God, Nosei Sakata and The New Blockaders.

He has as well written music for film, video, theatre and dance. His scores are published and distributed by STIM in Sweden and until today he has released more than 100 cds by labels all over the World. He is convinced that it is a responsibility of an artist in the present day to travel and work around the World in order to learn and understand different cultures and traditions and discover truth about ourselves and our planet. He also strongly believes that geographical, political and social exile is a necessary condition for true and honest creation. He is not interested in the traditional definition of music, in his opinion, all musical theory and systems as cultural concepts must be destroyed. In his latest work, his main concern is to realize drama with sound - electronic and acoustic walls with the architectures of ruins transcribed in the scores.
