Harnessing Feedback

Harnessing Feedback: lecture and concert by Stelios Manousakis
Stelios Manousakis (GR/NL/US) is a composer, performer, sound artist and
researcher. He operates across the convergence zones of art, science and
engineering - composition, performance and installation - the rich
tradition of Western art music and ‘digital folk’ idioms. His work is
visceral yet cerebral, communicating through pure, raw experience while
being complex and multilayered. His output extends from music
compositions – most often with live electronics - to intermedia and
sound art installations, to fixed medium pieces and film music. Many of
these works merge algorithmic finesse with the expressivity of
improvisation, or the immediacy of audience participation. They are
often designed as emergent (eco)systems or organisms, unearthing rich
and organic worlds through artistic reinventions of models from
complexity science, cybernetics, biology and game theory. His work has
been shown in various festivals and venues across Europe and the
Americas. Besides his solo work, he is a founding member of several
music ensembles and multimedia groups.
Stelios is currently in Vienna as a composer-in-residence with
KulturKontakt Austria and the Federal Ministry for Education, the Arts
and Culture, and is in the process of finishing a PhD in Visual and
Performing Arts at the Center for Digital Arts and Experimental Media
(DXARTS, University of Washington, Seattle, USA).
At IEM he will perform 3 of his recent feedback-based / cybernetic
compositions in a concert, proceeded by a lecture about his work and
some ideas and techniques behind it.
