What a bizarre question.
It`s not a competition.
And there are too many people doing different things to be rated "best"
However, in terms of who I find inspiring it would have to be
Franz Treichler
Arrovane
Trent Reznor
Luka Baumman
Innigo Kennedy
3D
Heiko Laux
Jorge Henze
erm, actually I could go on and on.
there is no number 1.
