Zer0 Rei

Zer0 Rei, formerly known as Zer0 れい, is the pseudonym of Belgian visual and experimental musician Sebastien Dessauvage.

As a musician, Zer0 Rei began exploring the post-modern realms between Ambient, New-Age, Dungeon Synth, and Elevator Muzak. Their current work spans a diverse array of styles, from Drone, Soundscape, and Left-Field Electronics to contemporary genres like Breakbeat, IDM, and Deconstructed Club.

Firmly embedded in the third wave of Vaporwave music, their online presence melds Do-It-Yourself Punk entrepreneurship with with the latest digital microgenres and aesthetic fixations.

In the visual arts, Zer0 Rei is a prominent modern user of the computer graphics software Bryce. They merge Bryce's distinctive raytraced rendering with Vaporwave aesthetics and classic Science Fiction influences, creating vignettes that depict liminal and surreal environments.

Currently, they are focused on bridging the gap between the online art and music spheres and the local Belgian scene. Aiming to bring the experimental and avant-garde elements of their online work into physical spaces, they are actively engaging with art initiatives and collectives in their hometown of Kortrijk to set up artist-driven expositions and events.
