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.
