Group Member

Chris Henschke is an artist who works with digital and analogue media, sound and light, and experimental science. A key aspect of his practice is cross-disciplinary collaborations, and he has undertaken a variety of residencies, including an online artist residency at the National Gallery of Australia, 2004; an Asialink residency, 2007, two residencies at the Australian Synchrotron, supported by ANAT, in 2007 and 2010; and an ANAT Synapse residency at the CSIRO, 2019. He has a PhD from Monash University (2013-2017), which included on-site work at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN), Switzerland, as part of the ‘art@CMS’ collaboration.

Sound projects include Song of the Muons, an 8-channel data sonification/spatialisation installation, developed in collaboration with CERN physicists, and exhibited at the SUSY conference on supersymmetry in particle physics, the University of Melbourne, Australia, and the IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Palais de la Musique et des Congres, Strasbourg, France (2016).
