Hekt, AKA Jesper Nørbæk, is a Danish multimedia artist and electronic musician working across sound and visual art. An active member of Copenhagen’s intimate but thriving experimental electronic music scene since 2012, he released his debut records under the name Hekt for the Scottish record label Numbers in 2024 – Lens and Dream. Hekt has mixed releases for the Norwegian duo Smerz, and as part of the duo Code Walk, Nørbæk has released five EPs, the most recent three as a trilogy for the Peder Mannerfelt's label imprint.

As a solo sound artist, Hekt's practice is rooted in the development of software for generative composition and synthesis in Max/MSP, creating systems for use in performances and installations at renowned museums and galleries like the Statens Museum of Kunst, Simian, and OK Corral. His performances range from the artsy and ambient to the club peak-time, including audiovisual elements derived from his own visuals coded in Jitter and GLSL.
