After five years of presenting the latest Croatian and foreign trends in sound art as a part of the ISPOD BINE, sound art festival, we have decided to expand the program to the whole year, and bring you the most interesting sound artists through concerts, exhibitions, workshops and lectures on sound art throughout the year within the program ISPOD BINE SEASON!
Through the second event this year, we are hosting Austrian audiovisual artists Barbara Lüneburg (e-violin, acoustic violin and gamepad) and Marko Ciciliani (monome, gamepad) on Friday, May 28 at 9 pm in the Beton kino (Concrete Cinema) of the Youth Center in Split.
The program includes a selection of audiovisual works by Marco Ciciliani of a very different character: from roaring car engines in “Formula minus One”, through virtual 3D landscapes in “Kilgore” to retro sounds in “Chemical Etudes”. What they all have in common is that they use elements of computer games while simultaneously commenting on “game” culture through the prism of experimental audiovisual composition.
Works to be performed:
Kilgore

Marko Ciciliani is a composer, audiovisual artist, performer and researcher based in Austria. The focus of his work lies in the composition of performative electronic music, mostly in audiovisual contexts. The German magazine Neue Zeitschrift für Musik referred to him as “one of today’s most interesting composers in the field of electronic music and multimedia” (01/2020).
Ciciliani’s music has been performed in more than forty-five countries across Eurasia, Oceania and the Americas. As a result of his interdisciplinary practice his work can be found in different genres. It has been programmed at festivals and concert series of electronic experimental music such as Experimental Intermedia, NYC, Club Transmediale, Berlin or Findars, Kuala Lumpur; by festivals for post-avantgarde music such as Donaueschinger Musiktage, Huddersfield Contemporary Music Festival or Maerzmusik; just as well as in the context of media art, as in the festival Ars Electronica, Glowing Globe Rijeka or with iMAL, Brussels.
Ciciliani is Professor for Computer Music Composition and Sound Design at the Institute for Electronic Music and Acoustics (IEM) of the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz. His work has been released on five full-length CDs and three multimedia books with audiovisual content. In addition, his music can be found on more than a dozen compilation CDs.
