Using cheap photographic lenses to distort digital projections, FOCAL POINTS is an expanded cinema work that explores the fractured edges of white light: the breaking point where the purity of white dissolves and a full spectrum of color begins to emerge. At times completely immersive, covering all surfaces of the room, and at times just a tiny beam of light, FOCAL POINTS floats in and out of synchronicity with a live electronic composition to create a rich, dynamic experience of light and sound.

Doron Sadja is an American artist, composer, and curator whose work explores modes of perception and the experience of sound, light, and space. Working primarily with multichannel spatialized sound – combining pristine electronics with lush romantic synthesizers, extreme frequencies, dense noise, and computer-enhanced acoustic instruments, Sadja creates post-human, hyper-emotive sonic architecture. Although each of Sadja’s works are striking in their singular and focused approach, his output is diverse: spanning everything from immersive multichannel sound pieces to sexually provocative performance / installation works, and stroboscopic smoke, mirror, laser, and projection shows.

Since 2001, Otolab functions as an interdisciplinary lab where video artists meet sound artists, architects meet designers and more. They (co)made the history of audiovisual edgy research of the latest years  and they have been performing and exhibiting on an international level since years already. Berlin’s active scene of artists, musicians, curators et al. focused on experimentation, mixed media and art&science collisions seems to be the perfect audience to welcome one of their (relatively rare) live appearance in town.
