AV performance night with:
- Heidrun Schramm & Nicolas Wiese - audiovisual electroacoustic set premier performance of three new pieces:
1. Sightings > Repercussions
2. International Scribblings
3. Pseudo_Code / Version 3.2
Heidrun Schramm and Nicolas Wiese have been performing together since 2004, mostly in either audiovisual or site-specific, installative formats. - Patrick K.H. & Andreas Karaoulanis
Each performance of Vienna-based Patrick K.-H. (aka Anton Iakhontov) and Berlin-based bestbefore (aka Andreas Karaoulanis) isn’t easily characterised or deconstructed — their absurd digital / analogue hybrid concoctions are built upon dada collage approach in graphic and sonic art and a need to confound assumptions. They make live and studio animations by sharing, combining, mutating, convolving, variating hints, sketches, sequences and bits of each other’s material until their animated homunculus is ready to go. - xname - Live composition
Her live compositions transform light and other electromagnetic frequencies in sound waves through self built synthesizers and complex semi chaotic machines. The result is an hypnotic spectacle dominated by stroboscopy and industrial and noise-techno frequencies.
Installation-screening: Animation / video by Patrick K.-H. and bestbefore
1) "Dbl Trbl" (music - diNMachine), 2016

Screening of Patrick K.-H. / bestbefore music videos previews their activity in this field, where they collaborate with German, Greek and American bands and composers. It is about the neuro-semantical relations of music to emotions - how ears would use sonic language not just to transfer musical meanings from outer to inner domain but to contemplate the kind of relationship between the seen and the heard, the way in which sounds don’t just point to subjects but are bestowed with feelings, which can shape the pictures with a sense of structure.

artists
Heidrun Schramm holds an MA from the UdK, Berlin; where she studied in the Sound Studies Program with Prof. Sabine Breitsameter and Prof. Dr. Martin Supper. Her work includes intermedia composition and audiovisual installation. Her electroacoustic concepts employ source material from acoustic instruments, objects, and field recordings. The staged results are hybrid forms between acousmatic concerts, performance art, and installation. The initial point of her work can be an incidental noise or discreet tone, simply happening in a given situation. These found sounds are thoroughly investigated in regards to their properties and potentials. Everyday life, spatial context, and poetic transformation are important factors in her work. Schramm's work has been performed, exhibited, and screened in festivals, venues and galleries such as: Heroines of Sound Festival Berlin, Kunstverein Gera, One Minute Film Festival Aarau/Switzerland, Velak Gala Vienna, Blurred Edges Festival Hamburg. Additionally, she has been teaching at the UdK Berlin since 2013, and has been leading artistic workshops in schools since 2011. http://www.heidrunschramm.net
