Fero Király (1979, Košice) is an artist, pianist, and composer who has performed in countries including the USA, Croatia, UK, Norway, Poland, Denmark, and Germany. He engages in art projects that span performance, sound art and installation, and conducts educational initiatives in the realm of sound and interactivity. He likes to collaborate with other artists, especially those with a multidisciplinary focus. He creates compositions, audio-visual works, and sound installations, exploring themes related to language, computation, digital physics, and the stories we tell ourselves. His work often explores similarities in the processes of computation and language, highlighting their parallel nature. Since 2009, he has co-led the Cluster ensemble, a musical collective dedicated to contemporary and minimal music. The ensemble has earned several awards and positive reviews, most notably for their album Cluster ensemble Plays Philip Glass, released by Orange Mountain Music in 2016. Since 2016, Király has been involved in artistic projects together with Eva Vozárová as part of the collective ooo.

He currently teaches at the Intermedia Department of the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, Slovakia. As a live performer and creator of installations, Király's works and collaborations have been presented in Slovakia and internationally. Recent projects were presented at The Schaubmar Mill, Slovak National Gallery in Pezinok (2023); Kontejner in Zagreb (2023); Slovak National Gallery in Bratislava (2021); New Stage of the Czech National Theatre in Prague (2019); MUMOK in Vienna (2017); Roulette Intermedium in New York (2017); and numerous other venues.
