Moritz Simon Geist. Recycling Techno _DE (World Premiere)

Over the past 12 years, German musician and engineer Moritz Simon Geist has focused his practice on the development and exploration of sound production through the integration of robotics, kinetics, and hardware. His new performance Recycling Techno, which he will premiere at L.E.V. Matadero, continues that tradition, emphasizing the life-cycle of waste generated by our society and the reuse of obsolete technology.

Through the use of discarded mechanical and electronic parts from electric vehicles, scientific laboratory equipment and other high-tech products, Geist generates repetitive sound structures and electronic music, characteristic musical patterns that seek to raise awareness of the environmental impact of electronic waste. The combination of technical ingenuity and artistic expression in his performances captivates with its musical and visual creativity, while generating a plea for awareness of the consumption and disposal of technology.
