Zeitkunst/Frischzelle

The media artists and musicians Sven Hahne and Matthias Muche initiated Frischzelle as a frischzelle for improvisation and composition. Their aim was to experiment with various forms of interaction between classical instruments and electronic sound production, as well as with dance, literature and audio-visual performance.
In particular, Frischzelle focuses on using computer technology for transforming sound and image, integration of diverse media and the connection between the human body and machines in the form of interfaces and sensor technology.

At FRISCHZELLE festivals, media artists and musicians engage in live dialogue. Using both composed and improvised material, they endeavour to create a unique format. Performers employ classical instruments, electronic sound generators, video projections, sculptural and cybernetic objects and almost anything that provides a direct or indirect connection between the components.
