= Roberto Iolini = Robert John Iolini is an Italian Australian composer, artist, filmmaker and radio producer.

Iolini began his creative career ostensibly as a chamber music composer. However it wasn't long before he extended his creative output to include radio art, sound art, video art, multimedia art and transmedia art. In his large-scale intermedia project SYNCANDI he has added the art of science fiction writing in his creative tool kit.

The following description by British independent record label  Recommended Records (RēR) who have released two solo albums by Iolini can be applied to most of Iolini's solo creative work, in particular his short video art pieces and his large scale transmedia project The Hong Kong Agent.

"Iolini is a composer who transcends the divisions between music, documentary and radio art, mixing investigative journalism, sound ecology, storyboarding and conventional notated composition - using songs, spoken word, field recording, improvisation and electroacoustic manipulation to make complex audio works that might equally be music, documentary or fiction. He works, initially, like a radio journalist: researching, collecting materials, conducting interviews."

Iolini created his first solo composition for radio in 1996, for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's landmark radio program, The Listening Room. The work is called Impermanence which Iolini describes as "a musical meditation on the impermanence of life and love". Impermanence was the ABC entry in the Music category of the 1996 Prix Italia, Naples.

Many of Iolini's compositions for radio have been nominated for international awards including his piece Hong Kong: City in Between which was a prizewinner in the Soundscapes (be)for(e) 2000 festival in Amsterdam.

Apart from his compositions, Iolini has also produced four feature length music documentary programs for radio and five feature length experimental radio remix programs for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.

In 2003 Iolini began experimenting with video art and short film. Producing a series of video art works that continue to be exhibited in festivals and events around the world.
