Deniz is a composer and sound designer who explores the intersections of music and language, intention, and happy accidents.
As part of lev, he aims to accompany younger and older enthusiasts on their sonic explorations. He codes digital random instruments with children and teenagers, allowing participants to freely improvise as a noise orchestra using game cards. For adults (beginners and advanced students in private lessons, sound design students, and music educators), he offers courses in Max, Ableton, as well as diverse workshops on composition, sound design, and "Music with Tablets." For him, the emphasis is never solely on conveying technical aspects but rather on nurturing the individual aesthetic, artistic, or pedagogical interests of the learners.
