Biography

In 1980, Unruh was a co-founder of the German band Einstürzende Neubauten, together with his school friend Blixa Bargeld. Both are still band members. Unruh usually plays self-constructed percussion instruments.

In 2000, Unruh released a solo album, Euphorie im Zeitalter der digitalen Informationsübertragung[1] ("Euphoria in the era of digital data transfer").

He is also a member of the band Bombus (not be confused with the Swedish band of the same name), which describes itself as "electronic dance music combined with drummers, performers, and DJs".

In 2004 Unruh released a DVD, "12 Ambiences Airshow".

Eponymy: Unruhdinium,[2] a dinophyte taxon
