Simon O'Rorke discovered improvised music while a student in London.  After emigrating to New Zealand, from 1992 he formed free improv ensembles in Wellington, at a time when activity in the genre appeared to be otherwise non-existent in the city.  Since the improv scene took off in 1997, O'Rorke has collaborated with many of New Zealand’s leading improvisors.  Originally a bass guitarist, he has specialised in percussion since 1997 and then, from 2010, synthesizers and software instruments.  In addition to his ongoing participation in collaborative improvisation, O’Rorke has very recently started to develop software electronic works.
