Ollie Bown

Ollie Bown has produced numerous works as part of electronica duo Icarus, specialising in the production of complex computer generated rhythmic patterns. Icarus releases have appeared on the labels Hydrogen Dukebox, Output Recordings, Temporary Residence (in the US) and The Leaf Label, and the band has done remixes for Four Tet, The Creatures Murcof and Hans-Joachim Rodelius.

Ollie also writes his own performance software based on behavioural robotics and has recently started to publish this research in the field of computational creativity. He is continuing this work with the Live Algorithms for Music group at the University of London and Brighton's Blip Science/ Art research forum, and recently presented a duo performance incorporating this work with Tom Arthurs at the Science Museum's Dana Centre in May.
