Who would you consider to be doing this at the moment? A lot of musicians in the IDM scene today seem to be working (often making excellent music, mind) within templates that were laid down in the mid to late nineties. So it's not really much more innovative than indie rock, techno, hip hop...

Same question to number 2. I'm hoping to be proved wrong here rather than trying to start any kind of flamewar / negative vibes, but about the only IDM I've heard recently that's made me double take has been some of what's coming out on Stuff and Werk.
