I did the mixing for this concert video with very unusual music. DUO2KW with Klaus-Peter Werani, viola, and Kai Wangler, accordion, have produced their corona-canceled concert in the schweres reiter for the online stream and address the audience directly in the stream with the composers. Compositions by Morton Feldman, Sidney Corbett, Harald Lillmeyer, Stefan Prins and Philipp Mayer (UA) can be heard and seen.

At the invitation of the organizers I wrote a blog article about the development of the app, which has now been published on their website "walk - listen - create".

Today the Munich Philharmonic orchestra allowed me to continue my research on the reproduction of the sound inside the orchestra by doing actual field studies inside the orchestra.

In this adventure report I outline how I managed to get an audience for an independent experimental music-theatre piece and enjoyed applying creative entrepreneurial strategies to a publicly funded art project. I hope this report to be inspiring and motivating to fellow theatre makers

At night you have peace and quiet in the theatre: no stage technicians, no carpenters, no lighting setup, no rehearsals. It's great when the theatre management allows you to stay alone in the auditorium at night and make your sounds in peace.

I am very happy that this impressive German documentary film by Martin Farkas with my music is now being shown in the ARD after a successful and long lasting run in the cinemas. Wednesday, 08.01.20, 22:45 hours is the time. Hopefully to be found afterwards in the media library.
