Arthur Elsenaar is an artist, former radio and television pirate, radio dj and electrical engineer. His main occupation has been the artistic exploration of the computer-controlled human face. A main driver and inspiration is the emphemeral nature of electricity and its intimate relationship with the human body, which played a decisive historic role in the harnessing of electricity. His electro-facial choreographic work has been shown world-wide and is part of museum collections.
