Rinus van Alebeek (1956, Heerlen, The Netherlands) is a writer who uses his environmental recordings on tape to narrate a story. During the nineties he published two books (pseud. Philip Markus) in his native country. An accidental encounter with electronic and avant garde music in the year 2000 at the Lem festival in Barcelona, and an introduction to the cassette culture gave way to his further artistic development. In the first decade of this century van Alebeek made a thorough research on how to make or manipulate recordings. Thanks to a great number of concerts, sometimes an average of ten in a month, he developed an approach of which people say it is ' between noise and pure poetry.'
