bio //
Tijs Ham (aka Tapage) is a musician and sound artist with a background in
visual arts, a member of the Soundlings collective and founder of the recordlabel
Tapeface. Musically, anything is possible, which is reflected by the broad sonic
range of his output. So far Tapage has released several full length albums on the
Chicago based recordlabel Tympanik Audio alongside countless e.p’s and
compilation appearances on labels such as Meta4 Recordings and Raumklang
Music.

In his artworks he applies programming, live-electronics techniques and system
design to explore and expand the possibilities of audible expression. Inspired by
artificial intelligence, evolutionary processes and machine learning he incorporates
these approaches in order to create dynamic structures and experiment with their
aesthetic results.
