Hell Machine
Project | Max Brand Synthesizer (2009)
Composition for the Max Brand Synthesizer
Operators: Manon Liu Winter, Gregor Ladenhauf
Commissioned by IMA Institut für Medienarchäologie
A journey into the depths of a unique machine, the legacy of the composer Max Brand. The forefather of the Moog Synthesizer, it is a monstrous instrument that took decades to develop. Operated by a first-class pianist, it snorts and wheezes through the ether of subharmonic frequencies.
A journey to hell with no return.
