Peter Kutin works with sound, space and perception, exploring their compositional possibilities and the ways in which they intersect. His practice is characterised by blending music / sound with image, sculpture, light, kinetic art or video – an in-depth exploration of the interdependence and interaction of auditory and visual stimuli that has expanded his artistic territory far beyond music. This has resulted in a diverse body of work encompassing experimental films, multimedia scenarios, kinetic sculptures and stage performances.

In 2027, his debut feature film, The Sound of Musick [sic!], is slated for completion.

Kutin received numerous awards, scholarships and residencies. In 2019, his kinetic sound-sculpture Torso#1 was honoured with the Prix Ars-Electronica. In 2016, along with the composer Christina Kubisch and his long time collaborator Florian Kindlinger, he received the esteemed Karl-Szucka award for the composition Desert Bloom. He received a scholarship for composition by Austria’s department for culture and arts in 2023 and was an Artist in Residence at WIELS center for contemporary art in Brussels in 2026.

Kutin composed scores and sound-environments for several arthouse-film productions, many of which premiered and received accolades at some of the world’s most significant film festivals.

Critic’s have described Kutin’s work as ’undeniably effective’ (The Wire Magazine), and ’not only good but important’ (A closer listen). He is a founding member of the label Ventil-Records, the concert series Velak-Gala (platform for experimental music), the RealDeal Festival and the ’sonic-laboratory‘ Westbahnstudios in Vienna.
He lives between Vienna and Brussels.

Frauke Aulbert is a soprano, extreme vocalist, composer, performer, and curator. She is considered one of the most active and versatile performers in contemporary music. Her work ranges from researching and collecting vocal traditions and singing techniques worldwide (such as P’ansori, overtone singing, Dhrupad, beatboxing, Noh, etc.) to the virtuosic interpretation of musical and performative compositions, as well as to her own music-theatrical works developed in close contact with the audience. These have been (premiered) at festivals such as Warsaw Autumn, Klang! Copenhagen, Resonant Bodies NYC, Átlátszó Hang Budapest, and Ensems Valencia. In 2026, Trio Generator will premiere Aulbert’s full-length music theater performance to try the impossible artwork at AckerStadtPalast Berlin.

The foundation of Aulbert’s vocal virtuosity lies in her extraordinary range and the high flexibility of her voice, the spectrum of which she has continuously expanded since completing her classical vocal diploma. Her techniques extend far beyond traditional possibilities and transcend musical and vocal boundaries.

She was awarded first prize by the Stockhausen Foundation and has received artist residencies in Rome, Paris, Stuttgart and Kyoto, as well as the Musikfonds’ AI grant in 2027. Numerous crossover projects demonstrate her curiosity and versatility. Aulbert performs her own compositions and those of other composers worldwide, from major venues to small off-the-beaten-track stages, from Senegal to New York, from the Opéra Bastille (2028/29, world premiere of Czernowin) to the Berghain in Berlin.

Paulo Amendoeira is a Portuguese percussionist, curator and improviser splitting between Bern, Lisbon and Alentejo. His music deals with concrete blocks made out of sound and noise. Broadly speaking, it is about the need to decelerate, both for himself and hopefully for his audience as well. Interested in both near silence and harsh noise, he seeks for physical ways of experiencing sound.

Plays with different bands and ensembles (side proYect, ruído blanco, Concrète[Lab], VERINNERLICHUNG), works together with renowned composers from the Neue-Musik scene (Ilona Perger, Simon Steen-Andersen, Michael Maierhof, Ángeles Rojas, Zeynep Toraman), played in festivals across Europe (Manifeste, Gaudeamus, OutFest, blurred edges) and is co-founder of the collectives Unproductive Platforms and Cigarra.
