Do Not Feed the Musicians
Immersive Concert
A concert as an experimental lab: musicians and audience are monitored, analyzed, copied. An algorithm that listens, watches, evaluates — and
interferes. What begins as a tech startup’s trial run evolves into an immersive audiovisual narrative about creativity in the age of AI and digital
reproducibility. As streaming platforms are flooded with AI-generated music and algorithms decide what we hear, Do Not Feed the Musicians asks about the
value of human expression in a world where art becomes fodder for the machine. Somewhere between performance, installation, and pop concert, the
experience unfolds into a dazzling, abstract visual journey, accompanied by pulsating indietronica tunes — performed live by emerging media artists and
a four-piece band, in 360° projection and surround sound.
Audiovisual concert performance, 360° real-time visuals, 28 projectors, spatialized multi-channel sound, 90 loudspeakers
