Marc Nukoop is a musician, composer and sound-and-movement artist whose work crosses independent music, theatre and choreography. Improvisation connects these different settings, allowing musical ideas to develop through encounters with other performers. He is a member of GROND and a co-initiator of the GROND Improvisers Group, contributing to its shared programme of experimental performance. His collaborations also include Antípodas, where movement, imagination and somatic practice meet composition in the moment.

Practice & experience
Marc Nukoop is an independent musician and sound artist whose work spans raw acoustic experimentation and refined digital composition.

The work is often atmospheric, a soundtrack to an imaginary film, inviting listeners into spaces beyond language. A graduate of the School for New Dance Development, Marc creates sound-scores for dance and theatre, shaping the mood, rhythm, and narrative that carry a performance forward.
