Renske Vrolijk’s music

At the heart of our culture lies a relentless drive for innovation. Technology evolves and becomes obsolete in the blink of an eye, yet our fundamental human reactions to it never change.

We cycle through the same predictable stages: first wonder, then excitement, followed by acceptance (sometimes after initial resistance), then exploitation, and finally, boredom—as we start looking for the next big thing.

So while we may quickly master new technologies, our own psychological evolution lags far behind.

In my music, my art, I explore this disconnect.
