ZKM

ZKM[1]

“As
a cultural institution, the Center for Art and Media (ZKM) in Karlsruhe
holds a unique position worldwide. It responds to the rapid
developments in information technology as well as the changing social
structures. Production and research, exhibitions, symposia, concerts
and events as well as documentation all take place in one place. Thus,
the ZKM is regarded as a leading center linking art and digital
technology.
Founded in 1989 the ZKM moved in the impressive building of a former
ammunition factory by 1997.


The
ZKM | Institute for Music und Acoustics combines artistic work with
research and development and is therefore an international forum for
international discourse and exchange. By holding concerts, symposia and
festivals on a regular basis it brings together composers, musicians,
musicologists, music software developers and listeners interested in
contemporary music.” [2]
