About the Synkie : For the past 25 years Michael Egger (*74) has been experimenting with the interaction between live visuals and music. In his newest project – Phonorescence – Michael goes solo and lets the images sing for themselves on his latest creation: the Synkie. Fusing the analog waveforms from signal generators and surveillance cameras into one stream that is recaptured with more cameras from cathode ray tube monitors he creates feedback loops that simultaneously produce picture and sound - a synaesthetic experience between drones and minimal techno, between seventies-style video art and twentieth century glitch aesthetics.
