Music at the Crossroads: Actions at the Intersection of Sound, Music, Art and Media
Thursday, Feb 6, 2014 12:00 am -
The Center for New Music & Audio Technologies, 1750 Arch St.

Chicago-based Austrian artist Kurt Hentschläger creates audiovisual performances and installations predominantly with time-based media, light and sound. The immersive nature of his work reflects on the metaphor of the sublime and the human condition in the 21st century.

CLUSTER, the next generation of Kurt Hentschläger's generative 3D and audio work, focuses on group behavior and interaction, particularly looking at swarm phenomena. In the weightless choreography of CLUSTER, human figures appear mostly as anonymous particles and as a pulsing, amorphous mass—a cloud of blurry matter from body parts and light.
