Katharina Ernst / Michael Breyer / ATELIER-E

Polylog

  • Music
  • Performance

“Polylog” is a complex experimental arrangement of sound, image and AI. A live performance on drums and film projections interact using state-of-the-art technology. Katharina Ernst plays all levels of this multimedia space like a polyrhythmic instrument. The high-contrast visual language of Michael Breyer’s video works refers to the aesthetics of analogue large-format photography, which is placed in a new context by the performative setting. For “Polylog”, the Berlin studio ATELIER-E, consisting of Christian Losert and Daniel Dalfovo, develops a customised real-time system that analyses the artist’s performance using AI and creating a dynamic interaction between the live performance and the image/sound level. As a media ensemble, music, performance and visual language become equal players.
