Isjtar Vandebroeck works as a media artist, researcher and performer. A first-generation native digital artist, he uses the computer as chisel, stone and looking glass. His work is transdisciplinary and excels in collaborative art-science-technology crossovers. Over the years his work has shifted from the sonic to the visual. Notable collectives include OKNO, Society of Algorithm and ATK!
Since 2019 he is part of CREW. CREW is an international team of researchers, performers, technologists, dramaturgs, musicians, programmers, writers and designers with currently at its core two artists: Eric Joris and Isjtar Vandebroeck. As an arts company crossing the boundaries of art, science and technology, CREW continues to ask a simple question: how does technology change us? Immersive performance is the perfect medium to investigate this: they envelop the spectator in a different world and interact with them in the (not) here & (not) now.
