about
Steve Roden was a visual and sound artist. His work included painting, drawing, sculpture, film/video, sound installation, and performance. Roden's working process used various forms of specific notation (words, musical scores, maps, etc.) and translated them through self invented systems into scores; which then influenced the process of painting, drawing, sculpture, and sound composition. These scores, rigid in terms of their parameters and rules, were also full of holes for intuitive decisions and left turns. The inspirational source material became a kind of formal skeleton that the abstract finished works were built upon. Frank Bretschneider (born 1956 in Obercrinitz, East-Germany) lives and works as a composer in Berlin. Still in the GDR he founded the tape-label klangFarBe. Later he co-founded the Raster-Noton label in 1996. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
