The concert programme is curated by Jens Brand, Media Artist, composer, musician and 2008 awardee of the artist in residence programme at Edith Russ Site for Media Art. In the context of his stipend he curated concerts of New Music under the title MUSIC. As first part of MUSIC II he will present a concert with two important artists of the electronic music scene. Composer, artist and musician David Behrman (*1937), who has been working together -among others- with John Cage and composing pieces for Merce Cunningham Dance Company (e.g. Long Throw, 2007) since the 1960s, is regarded as pioneer of interactive electronic music. His works are programmes that let the respective piece develop in interaction with a musician. By means of compositorial ascpects he opens an exact field for a dialog with machines.
