MENTAGRAMM IV

THE SECRET GARDEN, THE VIENNESE PIANO VARIATIONS
AND THE ART INTELLIGENCE OF KD-L47

In ‘MENTAGRAMM IV’, about Alexander Wiener, the artist designs his own imagesound world in homage to the story ‘THE SECRET GARDEN’ by Francis H. Burnett. In the process, piano compositions, the fantastic KD-L47 art machine and the sounds of completely newly invented instruments play an important role.
