Bio
A philospher who just got his master degree, and presently squats in Paris, France. Albin is one of those godless wretches who are too curious for their own good, and he seems to have studied just about every university subject there is. Starting out in musicology, where he delved into iconoclasts like Schönberg and Milton Babbitt, he has with inner mounting flame moved through history of ideas, theoretical philosophy, logic, Ancient Greek, mathematics and theoretical physics. One Ariadne’s thread slivering throughout this labyrinth is the theme of our relationship with the external world—with le réel—and in general our business of representation, whether it be the link between a composition and the text it sets or between a bubble chamber photograph and the electron it purports to be a trace of.
Albin is a pretty good guitarist and you can find some of his music on instagram, @albinthorncleland. He’s also a lover of language and poetry, so please send him your favourite poems. Or write one about him!
