Filmed inside Scanner’s personal studio surrounded by modular synthesizers and electronic instruments, the documentary captures a thoughtful exploration of sound creation, experimentation, and the evolving role of modular systems in contemporary music and sonic art.
Across the three-part series, Rimbaud reflects on the ways modular synthesis enables artists to explore sound beyond traditional musical structures. Rather than following predetermined workflows, modular instruments invite experimentation and discovery, allowing artists to build unique signal pathways that continually reshape how sound behaves and evolves.
Recorded and conducted by synthesist, author, and PATCH & TWEAK Club founder Kim Bjørn, the interview offers an intimate studio conversation with Robin Rimbaud, better known as Scanner, whose work has spanned electronic music, contemporary art, film scoring, and experimental sound performance for more than three decades.
