Tomáš Dvořák (Floex)
For a theorist and media historian, see Tomáš Dvořák.
Tomáš Dvořák alias Floex was born in 1978 in Prague. He studied at The Institute of Foreign Affairs, then sound at FAMU and at Michael Bielický's new media department at the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague. He is a music producer, graphic designer. He prepares interactive installations. His nickname Floex was made by connecting two words "float" and "experiment". Firstly, he played clarinet, then he started to make experiments with the electronic instruments and he describes his music as the fusion of jazz, electronica, movie- and ambient music. His work brings together acoustic and electronic forms of music. His album Pocustone (Quasi Delict Reords) was awarded the Golden Angel in the Czech Republic. He examines the intersection of music and visual arts, collaborating with a wide range of artists like Federico Díaz on the installation Sakura and The Turbulence Project, or recently with Tomáš Vaněk on the performance Live Score. He is playing with the casualness of the art. He finds himself as a bridge between visual and music world.
