University of Giessen then more and more turned towards arts using scientifically
influenced thinking to investigate formation of structure from noise & order, from
error & law and feedback as his main artistic themes. He works with video-
snow, electronics, computers, body & brain. He has performed with noisiV (self-made
electronics and video manipulations) since 2000, TOB (transmitters and self-
made electronics) since 2004. He makes electronic installations & international
workshops since 2004. He lives in Berlin.

The experimental sound circuit SNU (Special Noise Unit), which is the main device built
in the workshop, uses these illegal states between 0 and 1 and drives the digital chip it
uses into an in-between world of uncertainty. What we get is complexity and
uncontrollable behaviour but also a playable instrument.
Not two of them will sound the same. You get an alive instrument, different from a
sampler that only controls pre made sound. Like a violin, with many possibilities to create sound but also unpredictable moments - it requires constant judgement and adjustment
of the player and at the same time has a life of its own.
