singuhr – projekte opens the 2017 season with a new sound installation by Berlin-based artist and musician Robert Lippok at Meinblau Projektraum. Known primarily as a protagonist of electronic music (“Ornament und Verbrechen”, “To Rococo Rot”), Robert Lippok’s pieces include sound-based installations in which he brings together elements from art, music, theatre, radio and film, as well as stage sets and objects. As early as 1989 he arranged self-made musical mechanisms, audiotape loops, electric motors and a piano keyboard into a playable installation. A few years ago, Lippok became acquainted with the oeuvre of American sound artist Joe Jones, whose “Music Machines” have continued to influence him, including while creating the instruments for his new sound installation “What is Dance?”
