The   german   audiovisual   artist   Amelie   Duchow   explores   in   her   works   the   experimental   terrain   between   sound, space, image and form. The translation of her creative concepts are driven by the process of sonic and visual experimentation. Her    compositions    are    characterized    by    the    use    of    subtle    multilayered    sounds,    accentuated    by    intensive electronic structures and rythms. Her   live   performances   unfold   a   very   personal   vision   of   Amelie’s   investigation   on   the   relationship   between electronic sound and visual perception. Her works have been presented internationally at new media festivals throughout Europe. Her debut album TONSTICH has been released in 2014 on Sync. In 2018 Resident Advisor featured her in the documentary “ See what I hear ” by Lucy Werrett. The   Design   Museum   London   features   the   live   video   of   her   audio/video   project   TONSTICH   in   the   group exhibition ELECTRONIC From Kraftwerk to the Chemical Brothers in 2020/21. Currently   Amelie   is   working   on   her   new   audio/video   project   LOGOS   MATER   which   takes   its   inspiration   by   her interest in the sonorous character of languages. Motivated   by   the   common   interest   in   electronic   music   and   visual   art   she   starts   collaborating   with   the   media artist Marco Monfardini. The   duo   works   under   the   moniker   SCHNITT   since   2007   in   the   transitional   area   between   music,   art   and technology focusing with their projects on the coherence between audio and video. Custom-made,      innovative      software      and      electronic   devices      allow      SCHNITT      to      develop      complex      A/V     installations  and  site-specific live performances. In   2010   they   found   the   platform   and   label   for   audiovisual   artist   Sync   on   which   they   release   their   albums SYNCHROPATH and MEMORY CODE. Their projects have been shown in international museums and festivals as Elektra Festival (CA), LEV Festival (ES), Mutek Montreal (CA), e-phil (DE), Act Festival (KR), Sonica Festival (UK). The   duo   SCHNITT   cofounds   in   2018   with   the   creative   coder   Gianluca   Sibaldi   EXTRAsync,   interdisciplinary platform developing innovative multimedia projects and electronic devices. SCHNITT   presents   at   the   LEV   Festival   2019   in   collaboration   with   Gianluca   Sibaldi   the   site   specific   audio/video performance SCANAUDIENCE. The project is based on the realtime scanning of the audience. In   WHITE   BALANCE,   their   current   a/v   performance,   the   duo   creates   a   relationship   between   space,   image,   light and   sound   by   reversing   the   use   and   role   of   audio   and   video   using   four   photosensitive   devices   as   sound generators. In   2023   SCHNITT   and   Gianluca   Sibaldi   present   the   large   scale   audio/video   installation   SCANSCAPE   during the exhibition Future Legends at ACT Festival 2023 in Gwangju South Corea. This site-specific project was commissioned to the artist trio by the ACC Asia Culture Center, Gwangju, South Korea.
