Gymnasium Swarms LivaIn June 2015, Markus Mehr performed at the Modular Festival in his home town of Augsburg, Bavaria. But this was no usual Markus Mehr performance. Along with his regular collaborator, video artist Stefanie Sixt, Mehr was joined by the Chamber Choir of Augsburg University, the Modular Orchestra, and conductor Michael Kamm in a performance of ‘Gymnasium/Swarms’ from Binary Rooms.

We’re excited to be able to share the video of that performance along with a re-mastered audio download and a brilliant interview with Mehr by Matthew Tomich. We hope you enjoy this sublime document of Mehr’s brilliance and the power of collaboration.
