Biography:
The group Granular Synthesis was founded by Kurt Hentschlaeger und Ulf Langheinrich, audiovisual media artists (1991/2003), that strive to fuse video and sound into one medium where video is sound and vice versa. As an important part of this undertaking they develop real time video software and customized computer configurations. This enables playing video as a musical instrument, to compose with video in a musical manner with their often symphonic performances and space within space installations. It creates electronic emotion machines that surround, immerse their audience; overwhelm the human sensory apparatus by massive use of subsonic and penetrating light frequencies, literally touching the visitors.
