“ART+COM-Book:The monograph published by Gestalten Verlag presents a selection of projects from the 23 year history of ART+COM. Created at the intersection of design, art and technology, these works highlight the milestones in the journey, which provided influential design impulses to the field of communication with new media. Additionally to comprehensive photo spreads, texts characterize the interdisciplinary working methods of the ART+COM-team and give insight into both the past and the future of new media in space.” (ART+COM)

About Schloss Mirabell:

Schloss Mirabell aka Florina Speth, born 1983 in the mountains near Salzburg, started playing the cello and piano at the age of 6 and began studying music at the “University Mozarteum Salzburg” when she was just 11.

Her personal research fields bridges explorative experimental media arts with neuroscience to get inspired output for technical solutions in neurological rehabilitation systems as in music perception and music performance.

“KRAKE ist an annual Berlin based fes­ti­val for chal­leng­ing elec­tronic music and visual trans­duc­tion ini­ti­ated by Nico Deuster of KILLEKILL and Hol­ger Hilgers.

The fes­ti­val took place at the Sui­cide Cir­cus for the first time in 2010 and was an over­whelm­ing suc­cess: numer­ous ground­break­ing artists of high rep­u­ta­tion rocked the crowd such as Warp’s elec­tron­ica heroes PLAID, techno leg­end CRISTIAN VOGEL, RADIOACTIVE MAN of the infa­mous two lone swords­men or break­beat weirdo BOGDAN RACZYNSKI. But there were also a lot of new tal­ents who sur­prised the audi­ence with their fresh­ness. PLASTER with their audio/visual con­cert and KARSTEN PFLUM deserve to be named here.

For 2011 KRAKE will take the next level and con­sol­i­date its rep­u­ta­tion as the most dar­ing Berlin club fes­ti­val with a mas­sive line up in 4 venues and, a new web­site and an art­work by inter­na­tion­ally acclaimed graphic design­ers DOPPELDENK. Musi­cians con­firmed for 2011 include JIMMY EDGAR live set, BOLA live set, LEGOWELT live set, MIXMASTER MORRIS dj set, EMIKA live and many, many more.”
