Bernard Szajner is a French composer, musical theorist, visual artist.

During his childhood, he'd heard of the stories of his uncle who had been sent to Auschwitz concentration camp and had disappeared.

He became renowned as a light and visual effects technician with artists such as Magma, Gong, Stomu Yamashta and The Who.

The laser harp became so successful that Jean-Michel Jarre ordered a version from Bernard Szajner for his tour of China.

This is also why he continues to develop other instruments which use other innovative methods of interaction, such as tactile or holographic.
