Through the art duo u-matic & telematique, Ute Härting and Sven Gareis work with time-based and interactive media.
Their live performances, video installations, and workshops incorporate interactive stage sets, VR, and large-scale projections onto public buildings. Through these innovative projects, the duo seeks to expand the means through which to visualise the sound of the city, both within the streets of their home town Berlin, and within wider engagement with public space. Conceptually, u-matic & telematique’s work navigates the intangible by creatively engaging with various temporal frameworks and processes of digital creation. Through a playful engagement with blur, erosion, loops, stroboscopes and noise, the duo navigates the ephemerality of perception and presence.
