With Katherine Liberovskaya and Ana María Romano G., UnStumm (Nicola L. Hein & Claudia Schmitz) has a long-standing and intensive collaboration on both the real and virtual stage.

We are delighted to be able to invite these highly esteemed colleagues to join us on a real stage in Berlin.

UnStumm – conversation of moving image and sound
organized and curated by Nicola L. Hein & Claudia Schmitz

@unstumm is a collaborative intermediate project that brings together video artists and musicians. The aim is to create an environment of cultural and creative exchange in which a common, complex, transmedial artistic language is invented and used to convey narratives, textures, collisions, combinations and attractions of the visual and the sonic. Together with an exploration of the potential of the space as a sounding body and sculpture , the group will present a real-time movie (Echtzeitfilm) composed in the moment.

Katherine Liberovskaya – live video mixing, live camera(s) and feedback

With UnStumm | Virtual Village – Augmented Biotope, Claudia Schmitz and Nicola L. Hein invite artist*s and non human artist*s from Mexico, Japan and Germany to a telematic real-time performances with live moving image, and sound in augmented reality.

The international artists encounter each other in audiovisual interactions and project those onto augmented reality sculptures and virtual loudspeakers.

The artists will be distributed globally and will perform together via the Internet and the Augmented Voyage software.

The artists themselves will perform together out of small communities and biotopes, networked via the Internet, and grow together into a global village. 

This concept, coined by Marshall McLuhan, will be understood through the lens of telematic intermedial performances projected into local biotopes.

The audience participates in the telematic augmented reality performance by means of the UnStumm IOS / Android app via their own smartphone or tablet. The app can be downloaded from the UnStumm website and enables both the participation in three-dimensional live performances and the subsequent streaming of past performances.

Using the user’s own smartphone as 3D glasses, UnStumm brings the artists’ performances into the presence of the audience’s lifeworld.
