Frank Holger Rothkamm (born on July 2nd, 1965 in Gütersloh, West Germany) is a) a composer or b) a conceptual artist who makes concurrent contributions to the categories of music, technology, art, philosophy & wholesome entertainment. He lives and works in Los Angeles.

As an "extremely prolific" (Exclaim!) "lone wolf genius" (Sound Projector) and "German sound art legend" (Earlabs), who "never seems to do the same thing twice" (Vital Weekly), his "charmingly eccentric" (Rare Frequency) and "enigmatically unpigeonholeable" (Touching Extremes) semi-autobiographical work is "always delivered with an unceasing attention to detail, precision and humour" (Furthernoise), deconstructing the dialectics of High and Low culture while his "quasi-mystical principles of a philosopher-cum-musician" (e|i) and "variety of media" (ReR) give rise to the aesthetics of supermodernism and the possibility of a utopian science.

As a polymath, syncretist + synesthesiaist, his work has produced a seemingly arbitrary sequence of performances, styles and mesh-ups that he defines as a series of space dramas. In the ideology of sci-fi serialist supermodernism (2002-2006) he calls for the randomization of man and machine, so that the boundary between them won't be told with certainty, the randomization of music and time, so that no absolute placement in linear historical terms can be made, and the randomization of all categories.

Until 2002 ROTHKAMM provided rhythm synthesis for the Hardkiss Bros., Peter Scherer, Corin Curschellas, Elliott Sharp, Alfred 23 Harth, Wolfgang Muthspiel, Lesa Carlson, and DJ Spooky; sonic concepts to Rodney Graham, Harald Fuchs, Diane Thater & T. Kelly Mason and DJ Glove; remixes for the Cranberries, Zeena Parkins, Tyrants in Therapy, and Rebekka Bakken, commercial underscores for Levi Strauss, Sears, and Philips; web integration for Warner Bros., Hewlett-Packard, Ford, BMC, the Los Angeles Times and the New York Philharmonic; track licensing under the Mrs. Blowpop, Speed Genius Overdose, Frank Genius, and Flux Records moniker; a computer language IFORMM that descended from his studies with Clarence Barlow and his software emulation of Iannis Xenakis' UPIC for Science World of British Columbia; and soundtracks to film experiments in 3-D projection technology, among them George Lucas' "Star Wars".

Since 2005 his prototypical works have been published in a series of compact disc concepts: the teenage tape recovery of "Moers Works (1982-1984)", the machine trilogy of "FB01","FB02 (Astronaut of Inner Space)" & "FB03 (E Pluribus Unum)" (2002-2007), the Y2K reenactment of LAX (1998-2007), the story and sound of "just 3 organs" (2003-2008), the piano-forte of "Opus Spongebobicum" (2005-2008), his digital cantata "Frank Genius is Star Struck" (1990-2009), the ambient hit "ALT" (1989-2009), and the over ambitious TETRALOGY (3CD + 1DVD) that includes the haunting "Ghost of New York" (2005-2009), the classical "Zahra Fugues" (2008-2009), the mesmerizing "Birth of Primary Cinema From The Spirit Of Sound" (2008-2010) and the endurance testing "Amerika" (2008-2010).
