found footage
I found a Camera on the Beach which was
filming from the moment it was lost until there
was no more memory space.

installation 2015
mixed media
An aluminum structure with the masses four
by eight meter long and three meter high,
is pulled together by an electric gear motor
in the middle of the room. Ballmicrophones
on the ceiling record the noises in the room
for five minutes. During the recording, the
engine is running. After five minutes, the
motor stops and the audio starts to play
directly. After playing the recording, the motor
begins to pull and the microphones to record
again. The current recording will be placed
on the previous ones so that all recordings
are over eachother. Then they played
simultaneously. These procedural loop runs
during the opening times of the space.

installation 2015
mixed Media
The individual elements of the installation are
spatially separated.
A screen displays various screensaver. Each
screen saver is shown once. the duration of
the video is the duration of the opening time
of the exhibition.
A speaker starts counting at the beginning
of the exhibition at the number one. It is
counting in steps of one up for the entire
duration of the exhibition (also outside of
opening times).
A Speaker is palying an audio file that was
recorded the day before. The recording
is renewed every day. It is as long as the
opening times of the museum.
A carbon fiber rod bends slowly and stretched
again, loop 30 min.
The Be is B
The exhibition consisted of various rhythms
superimposed over the duration of the
exhibition period. The processes were
arranged on the basis of a fractal principle.
The exhibition was based on symmetries that
are broken by the process of the works during
the exhibition period.
The work „diving“ consists of an aquarium
that is felt with 30l water that is connected
via roperolls on an african blue king granite
block 25kg. By the water evaporate in
the aquarium, it loses weight. During the
exhibition a time is reached at which the tank
is lighter than the block of granite, which has
the consequence that the block falls to the
ground.
The work „V“ consists of a concrete slab was
poured the basis of symmetries in space. The
plate get transformed from a motor on with
cast steel ropes slowely during the opening
times 0.3 U / min.
At work „vibration“ a servo motor strikes a silk
thread, on which hangs a lead weight. The
thread with the weight starts to vibrate. On
the point of completed still standing the motor
strikes again on the thread.
At work, „X, Y, Z“ a motor stretched and
relaxed an elastic thread attached diagonally
across a corner of the room.
The work „darft fading“ consists two laser
pointer witch are mounted on the buildings on
opposite of the exhibitionspace. The pointers
shine in to the space. Through the wind, the
points are moved on the wall in the exhibition
space.
point of view
site-specific installation in 2014
laserpointer, billboard
Fourteen laser are placed in appartmentsand
houses in the surrounding neighborhood.
They were pointing on the billboard. During
the night a network of lines is visible.

site-specific installation in 2014
concrete, steal, motor, steal cabel
One in showroom poured concrete plate, with
the dimesion, 9m long and 1.5m wide and
3cm thick, lies flat on the floor. An electricgearmotor transforms the plate slowly during the
exhibition period (0.03U / min).
inaccurate / precission
installation 2014
mixed media
The work performs various movements.
Each motion differs from the previous one.
By different rhythms, the movements are
intensified. The programming, controls the
movements consists of fixed as well as
pseudo-random and random elements.
The system interacts, through programming,
with itself.
A mouse is drwan through the movement in a
self-written drawing program that is displayed
on a LCD screen.
structure
installation 2013
aluminum, rope, motor, metal
Seven, 1.5 to 2.2 m aluminum plates are
slowly pulled up on ropes. By pulling up
and lowering the the positions of the plates
always change. By clashing, scraping, sliding
and rubbing together result in noise.

site-specific installation in 2013
A cooperation with Ivan Mitrovic and Matthias
Liechti in 2013
wooden frame 2500 x 1500, aluminium
sheets, screws
Four objects with similar prerequisites are
being installed on four different spots on
the Engstligenalp. The object consist each
of a perpendicular plane that for all the four
objects are set to the same exact height
(meter above sea level).
What is the beginning of this sentence
sculpture 2013
metal frame 150 x 220, aluminum plate 100 x
300, polyamide rope, electric gearmotor
The motor rotates the rope around its own
axis with minimal speed. This proces causes
a spiral shaped traction onto the two frames.
This traction is increased throughout the
whole time of the exibition.
The sculpture is made up of two metal
frames, and four aluminium sheets that
are each 4 meters in width and 3 meters
in height, an electrical geared motor and a
polyamid rope.

sculpture 2012
servos, carbon rod, gymnastics fabric,
aluminum, wood, round cell holder,
arduino
The carbon rod of 1.5m length moves
throughout the room. The corrersponding
programing is a mixture of random intervals
and well-defined seqences. In the coding part
the speed of the movement and the angle is
defined. The rod aims towards different spots
in the room.
Homemade
sculpture 2012
servos, computer mouse, macbook Air,
beamer, cord, aluminum metal pipes, wood,
LCD-screen, transparency texture
The platform is moved by servos that are
controlled by a mixture of pseudo- and
physical coincidences which cause the
computer mouse to be moved on top of it.
The mouse signal is interpreted by a
computer and fed into a painting program
that draws according to pseudo coincidences
and pre-defined intervals set by myself. The
image is shown on an LCD screen. The
drawing is projected from a beamer onto the
glass plate in real time where cristalglass
prisms break the light. All the elements of
the sculpture are based on fundamental
geometrical forms.
