In AULA UNTER STROM, 34 sound bodies are installed where the audience would normally sit. The sound is generated in real time from eight Euclidean rhythms – a mathematical principle that dates back to Euclid (c. 300 BCE) and was applied to rhythm in 2004 by computer scientist Godfried Toussaint. The mathematical structure links the individual rhythms into a shared sonic image. The sounds are partly random, partly algorithmically generated; some frequencies are also physically perceptible through vibration. In addition, sensors placed in the room register distance, contact, vibration, and decibel levels. This data feeds into the soundscape as its own sound texture – human, machine, and space thereby stand in a triangular relationship.

AULA UNTER STROM was awarded the postgraduate scholarship of the Kunstakademie Duesseldorf in July 2026.
