Janek Schaefer

Janek worked on the sell-out The Mill.

Janek’s interest in sound began while he was studying architecture at the Royal College of Art.  As part of the Self Storage exhibition with one-time postman Brian Eno and Artangel, Janek recorded the fragmented noises of a sound activated Dictaphone travelling overnight through the Post Office, in a work called Recorded Delivery. That work, titled Recorded Delivery (1995) was made for the ‘Self Storage’ exhibition with one time postman Brian Eno and Artangel. Since then he has performed, lectured and exhibited all over the world, winning the Paul Hamlyn Award for Composers and the British Composer of the Year Award in Sonic Art.   He currently works as a full time sound artist/musician/sound designer/composer for the audiOh! Room in Walton-on-Thames.  You can find out more here.
