Thomas Couzinier
Thomas Couzinier is a French composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist. His body of work explores large orchestral, electronic or hybrid composition landscapes, and includes original scores for film, television, and contemporary art installations. Notable works include Infiniti, by Thierry Poiraud, the TV show Zone Blanche (Black Spot), which earned him and collaborator Frédéric Kooshmanian a Gold FIPA in 2017, Shiny Shrimps, The Translator, and the sci-fi thriller animation Renaissance. He's collaborated with various renowned artists and filmmakers such as Mathieu Kassovitz, Matthijs Van Heijningen, Tony Allen, Joseph Arthur, H5, Karl Lagerfeld... His Sound & Composition M.A. in Acoustics and Signal Treatment, at the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, allowed him to refine his expertise of surround sound and binaural sound techniques and his knowledge of the history of Muzak in architecture, sonic weapons, and the history of recorded music. With Battery Operated, his experimental and experiential electronic music duo with ongoing close associate Toby Heys, he has given a number of live performances around the world, including Sonar and the Knitting Factory, sharing the stage with Coldcut, Mica Levi and Clark. Thomas Couzinier is the co-founder of KOUZ and SuperPitch. He's based and works in Paris, France, where he takes care of his impressive fuzz pedal collection and cultivates a relentless passion for garage rock, thanks partly to his one-man band Night Shapers.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
