Norbert Math is a media artist and programmer, who developed the technical framework for the interactive archive of the magical sound machines that were on display in the eponymous exhibition organized and curated by the IMA Institute of Media Archaeology. This archive, which can be accessed online at http://klangmaschinen.ima.or.at/db/, is the point of departure of an artistic exploration of the history and sounds of electronic sound generators and the fascination awakened in us by these tools, devices, and ideas.

starsky (A) November 2014

Starsky employs language, phrases, graphics, interactions, moving images, or film. All can be found here, from the striking to the subtile, most often even in one and the same piece of work. Starsky’s projectional dimensions lift ambient-projections and projection-installations to a substantial level that merges image, language, communication and environment to a “Gesamtkunstwerk” (total or integrated artwork). Visualized Emotion – volatile, but unforgettable. During her residency at IMA Institute of Media Archeology she will match her and IMA’s archive, in which she is inscibed already.
