This doesn't answer your question, but he was utter gash when I saw him live. It wasn't just that I didn't like or "didn't get" what he was doing. What he was doing was just utter cack. It honestly sounded like someone who has never used music software before and has no real interest in music just dicking around with a copy of Audiomulch for the first time.
Perhaps his studio stuff is different, but I'd give his live stuff a miss if his ATP 2003 performance is anything to go by.

And before the Hecker fans turn up and start flaming me, I'm *not* the only one who thought this...
Several people I spoke to at ATP had a similair opinion and look what this atp review had to say:
"Upstairs - the laptops
The feel upstairs, while more eclectic, experimental and live, still became a little samey after three nights. The highlights were great, but a number of rather dull and pretentious laptop acts managed to creep onto the line-up. Take Hecker for example - a tedious little bloke who treated us to a half-hour-long wasp noise from his iMac. The idea that this kind of music's impenetrability somehow makes it intellectual and worthy is something which needs to be challenged, I feel - the fact the vast majority of the crowd didn't 'get' it doesn't make them stupid, but makes the music fucking shite. Pretentious to the max, elevating the electronic process over and above musical content, and avoiding any kind of impact on the listener whatsoever, save mild annoyance. "

ceri, if you're talking about ATP, that was hecker, not tim hecker.
tim hecker (mille plateaux) is quiet, glitchy/ambient noise kind of stuff
hecker (mego) is the guy you saw at atp, annoying noise shit

i rate tim hecker actually, really enjoyable stuff, check out his album "radio amor" to see what i mean
the other hecker (i think it's his brother) releases stuff like sun pandamonium which i find difficult to like
