Ivan Sokolovsky

Ivan Sokolovsky was born in Leningrad on February 10, 1962 and died May 15, 2005, from cerebral stroke. On graduation from the Moscow State University where he was studying Philosophy and History, Sokolovsky was offered to write for a number of magazines on post-modernism, post-historicism, and on Russian religious philosophy of the XIX-XX centuries. Instructed in the principles of conceptual composition and sound sculpture, Sokolovsky also began experimenting with self-made synthesizers and tape recorders.
