Concert Frank Bretschneider a.k.a. Komet
Finally, as a special highlight of the evening at 9 p.m., there will be a sound-image performance by Frank Bretschneider a.k.a. Komet in the Casino on the ground floor of Künstlerhaus Bethanien. A member of the label raster-noton, he will present the new, 45-minute production Gold (2003), whereby visuals will be projected onto a large screen by beamer. These are not film material or videos, but the visual transposition of frequency and amplitude patterns in music. The basis for the sound is a computer-aided synthesiser system using classical synthesising techniques which the artist has subsequently processed on the computer.
