Jaap Blonk (born 1953, Woerden, NL), is a self-taught, sound, vocal, and performance artist. Without a doubt informed by his unfinished degree in physics, mathematics and musicology, he embarked upon a career in composing, and performs both self-created scores as well as improvised work. One of his early influences was Kurt Schwittersʻ Ursonate. He memorized the entire work, and regularly performs this complicated composition. In his compositions and performances he cleverly makes use of words and phonetic snippets as well as clicks, hisses, and other vocal manipulations.

From around the year 2000 on Blonk started working with electronics, at first using samples of his own voice, then extending the field to include pure sound synthesis as well. After a sabbatical away from performing his work, his interest in mathematics reawakened and he started researching the possibilities of algorithmic composition for the creation of music, visual animation and poetry.
