About works / performance

My education as a so called "classic composer" is the background for my observations in musical life. The genres or social contexts I work in may vary. I like to pick up musical objects trouvés and examine their functions, unconscious reflexes, commercial standardizations, resistances and chances. After that I like to melt them together with ideas from other musical fields. An example can be my last project "Contemporary Sound System" where I was applying chance operation sequencing to dupstep sampling or "Adrenochrom" where I was including double-pedal drumming in a contemporary music ensemble texture.
Another passion of mine is speculating about an actual musical "futurism" (or sentimental scifi). I have written several pieces for robotic machines and instruments like "Double-concerto for Horn, Robot and Ensemble". For the robot opera "Rigolator" I have won the ring.award.off 2008 and for "mouvement noir" for ensemble and vibrating sound objects the "Hanns Eisler Preis" 2008.
Moreover I have written pieces for orchestra and opera ensemble.
