KEY PROJECTS AND EXPERIENCE
Exhibition, April 2019 ( Organizer, Concept, Curator )
AUTOMATON
Automaton is a joint exhibition of mechanics, new media, with live music and performances.
Automaton wants to break the proverbial mirror, focusing on the relation between mechanics, the humans that trigger them, and the action that it produces. By focusing on mechanics of creativity and combining them with the mechanics of 21st Century technology, Automaton aims to experiment with the interface that connects us with the machines.
Interactive Live A/V with Immersive Performances, June 2018 ( Art Director, Interaction Design/ Engineer )
UNFAMILIAR NETWORKS FOR TOA IN THE SOUNDCHAMBER OF FUNKHAUS BERLIN
Housed in the cavernous space of the Funkhaus’ Sound Chamber, Unfamiliar networks was a collaboration between the University of Applied Sciences Berlin and Native Instruments. A site-specific installation and live performance presented over the conference’s two days and nights, the programme was the culmination of four months of intensive conceptual and technical development by Basel Naouri, Lars Christophersen, Andy Liu, Leonie Pfeiffer, Kzenya Rhyzova, Rodrigo Sanchez, Almut Siebel, and Helin Ulas.
Integrated Art Project, June 2017 ( Creator, Organizer, Integrated Art Project Artist, Performer )
HAMLETMACHINE – LOOK WHAT YOU CREATED
This conceptual integrated project happened in an old church dormitory and spanned 8 different floors, and 4 hours with various events happening throughout the space simultaneously.
Various artists collaborated and created a large space where audiences were free to move around as the entire reconstructed text of Hamletmachine by Heiner Muller was conveyed through events with actors, multimedia installations, performance art, and food, all the while live music penetrated the entire space. We focused on all the different senses from including space and time, with the main purpose of inviting audiences to be involved in the story and to create their own from the elements we wove together.
