William Engelen
William Engelen is a Dutch artist and composer, born in Weert in 1964 and based in Berlin. His work sits between visual art and new music, in a line that follows John Cage and Morton Feldman. He writes graphic scores in place of conventional notation and builds them from ordinary material such as diaries, weather data, chocolate bars, houseplants and folded paper. Engelen wrote Verstrijken in 2005 during a residency at La Chambre Blanche in Quebec City, turning his own diary into a score of coloured time blocks for solo violin and string trio.
