Seit 31.05.2010 läuft auf dem Erlebnisklo im Unperfekthaus Essen mein Video "Diskette in Wandlung". Das Video läuft in Schleife zusammen mit Qnq's "Yuki"
At the moment I'm working on some new series. First one is called "The Cycles" and is acrylicis on 60x80cm canvas. The second one is Chipart and will play with keyboards, roms, etc. There will be some new Floppy Disc Sculptures as well. I'll have to wait for the photos to bring them on. In the make is a new short video. It's called "4th generation" and is about doubt and belive, especially in what we belive and trust.
At the detectiv story "Plötzlich und unerwartet" which runs at the Kleines Theater Essen from the 25th of September, 3 of my paintings from the Cycles Series are shown. Check them out!
It was one of those stormy rainy days you don't wanna go out at. It was that stormy that most public transport in Essen was out of order. It took me about 1 1/2 hour to get to the Unperfekthaus without getting wet. The exhibition - Digitale Demenz - is now open.
The new background images are all photos taken during 2001 - 2005, mostly in Berlin / Paris / Finnland. It's about the impossibility of the sustainability of cities. Most of the negatives were developed by myself to get not so perfect pictures showing developing residues like water drops, scratches, etc. I think that perfect pictures are impossible and if possible the artist has to make sure that some certain part of imperfectness has to be in it, to remembers us that we are humans and not machines. Enjoy them!
My first exhibition starts at the 3rd of July 2009 at the Unperfekthaus Essen, Room E8. I call it "Digital Demenz". There will be a small vernissage from 19:00 o'clock on the opening day. The exhibition itself is open till the 23rd of September, every day from 10:00 - 23:00 o'clock. The admission is 5,5 € including free non-alcoholic drinks like coffee, espresso, tee, cola, water. Enjoy
Integrated circuits are used in our every day’s life and they have changed the way we are living. Computers, medical equipment, mobile phones, fridges, cars, airplanes, all of them rely on integrated circuits. What would a world without integrated circuits look like? Our daily life will stand still; Stock exchanges will break down, the same with entire countries. Its the 50th anniversary of integrated circuits on the 12th of September 2008. Integrated circuits are everywhere, in art as well. Happy birthday IC!
