Andreas Eduardo Frank (*1987) is a composer, media artist, and performer. His oeuvre is characterised by close collaborations with outstanding interpreters and artists from various disciplines.

In his works, he explores the intersection between the real and the virtual, blending music, performance, choreography, video, and theatre. He plays with absurdity, humour, and precision, aiming to »virtuosically sparkle with what does not shine, build thought castles without fear of tearing them down, to derive from their rubble a genuine concept of music that boldly flirts with other disciplines.«

Numerous performances and commissions across Europe, Asia, and America have seen him actively involved not only as a composer but also as a sound director or performer. His works are interpreted internationally by renowned ensembles and artists. Since 2019, he has been the artistic director of Ensemble Lemniscate Basel, he is the winner of the 64th Composition Competition of the City of Stuttgart, and since 2021, a member of the programming committee of the Festival Rümlingen.
