The stage setup of …And Sugar consists of a screen with a black and white video projection and a piano, resembling early day silent movies. However, in certain respects it is transferred to the present: the automated piano plays itself and the black and white surface of the video is digitally reinterpreted by means of a binary rasterisation and transformation.

Scrollbar is a short solo-piece written for Javad Javadzade as part one of his project lockdown miniatures. It was written and recoreded in very little time and premiered on Javads facebook wall.

improvised performance with analog hifi-mixers and computer
In No-Input-Mixing, the outputs of a mixer are connected to its inputs, creating feedback loops.

Fillin’ the Feedback Form confronts this wild and often unpredictabil instrument with highly organised digital algorithms that try to tame it.
