[traduction française non disponible]

Since 1987 Bosch & Simons have created installations in museums, at international symposiums and in concert halls around the world. Their best-known piece is Krachtgever, which received a Golden Nica at the 1998 Prix Ars Electronica (Linz, Austria). Other projects include Cantan un Huevo, awarded at the 29th Concours International de Bourges (2002) and Aguas Vivas, awarded a mention at VIDA 6.0 (2003) in Madrid. In 2009 a retrospective of their work was held at La Tour du Pin (France) curated by GRAME (Lyon). In 2012 they premiered Mirlitones, commissioned by DordtYart in Dordrecht (Holland) and Wilberforces during the Winter Sparks exhibition at FACT in Liverpool (UK). Mirlitones was shown in a new, improved form at the ICMC 2013 in Perth/Fremantle and at the Sound Travels Festival of Sound Art (Toronto, 2015). In their latest project Último Esfuerzo Industrial (2012-15), sounds from electric motors, electronic modulation and mechanical noise are used as an installation or in a concert setting.
