An Illustrated Talk with Multimedia Artist Gebhard Sengmüller

Even before I had heard about the term ?media archeology?, I had been curious about the inner workings of film and television in my art practice.
In my talk, I will discuss my moving image related projects, starting with TV Poetry from 1992 (an effort to create a stream of auto generative text from TV programming) and Slide Movie from 2006 to Big Paul in 2017 (where I try to change the timeline of TV technology).

Gebhard Sengmüller is an artist working in the field of media technology, currently based in Vienna, Austria. Since 1992, he has been developing projects and installations focussing on the history of electronic media; creating alternative ordering systems for media content; and constructing autogenerative networks. His work has been shown extensively in Europe, the US and Asia, among others in venues such as Ars Electronica Linz, the Venice Biennale, the Institute of Contemporary Arts London, Postmasters Gallery NYC, the Museum of Contemporary Photography Chicago, microwave Festival Hong Kong, or the ICC Center Tokyo.
