ERikm

Hello Clamembert. Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for taking the trouble to join and comment on the proposed deletion of ERikm. As you'll see, I've moved your comment into the {{Old prod full}} box on the talk page, as this will make it more certain that any reviewing administrator will see it. I hope that's all right. Re your note about not knowing the process, there are a few ways for us to go forward now. If you like, you can leave things as they are, in which case an administrator will come in a few days to assess things and decide whether to delete the article or not. Or if you prefer, you can delete the template on the article page. That's the lines starting from the top all the way down to the two curly brackets below the timestamp. That will permanently stop this deletion proposal, but it's quite all right to do so and won't give any offence. If you do that, I can invoke a different procedure called "Articles for Deletion", which sets in motion a discussion aiming at community consensus on whether to delete or not. But yet another alternative is for you to replace the current, horribly biassed and promotional text with new text using proper sources and neutral, objective wording. If you would like to do this, I will stop pushing for deletion and will even be glad to help.

If you'd like to discuss this, please reply here. I've put your talk page on my watch list. Best regards, --Stfg (talk) 12:17, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Actually, after looking at the web sites of the labels you mentioned, it's obvious that he's notable, so I've removed the template myself. Seems to me that some of those web sites might provide some references on which to base a more objective article, if you wanted to. Regards, --Stfg (talk) 13:05, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

== Biography ==

ErikM (known as Erik M) is a French musician, composer, and visual artist. His work spans a broad spectrum of electroacoustic sound production, media art, and performance art.

From a young age, in 1987, he became involved in various rock-noise and industrial rock bands, while also dedicating himself to fanzines, street art, and creating his first installations.

Starting in the 1990s, he became one of the leading artists in the fields of sound art, abstract electronic music, and glitch music.

Alongside his repurposing of objects from the media and music industry, ErikM has continually explored sounds derived from the living, the invisible, and the unheard through his intensive practice of phonography.

ErikM is one of the most influential turntablists of his generation, manipulating his various electronic devices with rare elegance. He creates shimmering and captivating soundscapes, which sometimes reference dance electronic music. He collaborates with improvisational musicians and collectives as well as conceptual artists and contemporary music ensembles.

He creates acousmatic and radio works and composes mixed music for instrumental ensembles such as Ensemble Intercontemporain, Ensemble Laborintus, Ensemble Phoenix Basel, Les Percussions de Strasbourg, and Ensemble Dedalus, among others.

He has collaborated with Luc Ferrari, Christian Marclay, Mathilde Monnier, Anthony Pateras, F.M. Einheit, Bernard Stiegler, Thurston Moore, Voice Crack, and created cross-disciplinary works that constitute a singular kaleidoscopic vision, balancing the intimate and the political, the popular and the scholarly.

In addition to his performance and composition activities, documented on countless sound recordings, he has exhibited in numerous galleries and museums with his drawings, photographs, sculptures, and sound installations: Audiosphère in Sofía, Laboratoire de L’art in Paris, Manif d’art 6 in Quebec, bCUBICO Galeria in Recife, Mudam in Luxembourg, Palais de Tokyo in Paris, Galerie Ron Mandos in Amsterdam, Kunstmuseum in St. Gallen, and Euphoria in Brooklyn.

His work undoubtedly reflects his explorations at the intersection of science (phonography, electronic instrument-making, etc.) and his poetic curiosity about the world. 90.39.152.205 (talk) 14:08, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
