ARTIST TRANSIT #5
RUBEZAHL (GERMANY)
5 – 7 APRIL 2017

“Rübezahl” is a mountain spirit from german fairy tales. He is known for his capricious behaviour. He is also a musician based in Berlin, but travelling around the world, playing from Chzech, over Greece and Turkey to Taiwan, where he is currently Artist in Residence in the C-Turtle Headquarter in Kaoshiung. This April he is touring Malaysia and Indonesia. He is building his own instruments using analogue and digital electronics, or just a lot of springs. He attended lectures in the „Fachklasse for Generative Art/Computational Art“ at Universität der Künste Berlin under the leading of Professor Alberto de Campo and participated in the interdisciplinary research project 3DMIN, dedicated to the design and building of new electronic instruments. He also worked on a theater project called “Chinaphobie” wich had premiere in February 2015. His live performances can differ from time to time, though most likely the audience can expect interactivity, spirals, and a hawaian flute.
