Whisper down the lane

Project Manager, Director, Head of Audio, Music

Production: 2012

"Whisper down the lane" is a project of students at the University of Applied Sciences in Salzburg, Austria. In summer 2011 the team traveled to Kenya to interview affected people and experts in cooperation with organizations on site. Simultaneously to principal filming a poster campaign was realized to sensitize people about the topic and encourage them to talk about HIV/Aids. HIV and Aids are taboos still in large parts of society although every single person is affected in the face of rising infection rates: directly or indirectly. "We are either infected or affected"

Portrait Series

Production support, Technical development, Light design

Production: 2012

Portrait Series consists of interactive portraits which play with the human gaze and behavior. Related to old oil paintings and to photography, these portraits focus on androgyny, the fine line between masculinity and femininity. The work questions how we look at art, which usually is patient to be looked at. This work chooses as its subject characters of androgynous gender. How will the spectator react to the androgynous features of the model? Will they stare at the portraits? Will they feel like being watched, or even ashamed? Portrait Series no.1 and no.2 engages the viewer - who might stare - by looking back. The work reacts if it is approached, and looks outside its frame - at you. Says the artist, Inspired by pictures and paintings which give the suggestion that the portrayed one is always looking at you; I wanted to develop an interactive portrait which is not only looked at, but looks back.

Hitchhike the wind

Tonmeister

Production: 2010

When five young people make their way to one of the greatest ecological disasters of the present, to find freedom and love of life, the question is morally acceptable for a zest for life, in a decaying world.
A provocative invitation to the homogeneous mass of a passive audience to a joint adventure in your mind - but as a group of individual personalities.
