About | Thomas Appel

Each artistic endeavor is a source of renewed inspiration.

Producing experimental sonic compositions and film content since 1999,

I seek to explore the outer envelopes of our everyday perceptions,

discovering new ways of shifting our points of references,

and exploring new ways of how we engage and understand the multitude of experiences available to us.

in so doing, I curate a fluid approach to the traditionally separated disciplines of visual and auditory landscapes.

COLLABORATING

I'm interested in creating projects from the ground up,

conceiving the overall vision in a partnership,

and providing guidance as well as creative support.

Exploring uncharted areas of creation together allows

the exchange of new perceptions.

Its not only fun, but opens new doors to unknown mysteries beyond our familiar orbit and inspire sensations

we can share with each other.

Raised in the American South West, my musical education led me around the world, from South America to Western Africa.

With a degree in History from the University of California, Santa Cruz,

I worked at the famed bookstore and publisher

City Lights, in San Francisco,

as well as several other publishing companies, before heading to Hollywood and pursuing a career in the film industry.

I was fortunate to work with many legendary figures of film, before continuing explorations of inspired storytelling in Berlin, Germany.
