How and why did the Nexialist Organization come into existence? It may have started with my childhood in the US Tri-State Area, where my father managed a racing team for the Pocono, Indy 500 and Can-Am races, with the high-octane deep bass growl of the Porsche 917 as soundtrack. It may have started in my teenage years after relocating to Germany when I discovered all forms of underground music from Grindcore to Industrial. It may have started in my years as an architecture student when I discovered Iannis Xenakis and how to create sequences using a PC. It was a small step from tape experiments to DAT demos, from live sets to vinyl releases – under the alias of Fragment King. Moving to the US after my uni years came with a plan: record music and release it. The Nexialist Organization was born and the Halforganic Series came to life. Many collaborations took place during these years and continued when I returned to Germany. The music shifted into metallic realms by using electric and bas...

Critical Void encapsulates everything the Nexialist Organization set out to do: create projects at the intersection of architecture, music, and visual design through shared creative methods and theoretical inquiry.  A site-specific audio analysis and performance, Critical Void examined the planning crisis of Munich’s MaximiliansForum through sound, dialogue, and documentation. Critical Void performance, MaximiliansForum München. Photos: Andreas Graf  Critical Void is an analytical audio work based on an urban study of Munich’s MaximiliansForum and its complex planning history. Developed by Z’EV and Mark Kammerbauer, the project combined interviews, archival research, and live performance into a sonic investigation of urban transformation. The MaximiliansForum, located beneath the intersection of Maximilianstraße and Altstadtring, was originally conceived as a traffic tunnel but repurposed as a pedestrian underpass and later as an art space. Its ambiguous spatial identit...

Working with Z'EV was key to the Nexialist Organization – aimed at creating projects at the intersection of architecture, music, and visual design through shared creative methods and theoretical inquiry. We collaborated on recordings and performances from our first meeting in 2005 until his passing in 2017. Marcelo Aguirre (Spastic Dementia, Evil Spirit, Æternum Sacro) was key to facilitating a collaboration between us. THE.BÄND initially featured Z’EV, Alexandra von Bolz’n, Marcelo and I, as Fragment King. The project combined percussion, bass, and voice into an extreme, physical form of metal-drone performance art. The Bänd emerged in 2008 from a collaboration between legendary percussionist and sound artist Z’EV, drummer Marcelo Aguirre,  vocalist Alexandra von Bolz’n, and bassist Fragment King. Their partnership began with a live performance in Berlin and developed into a long-distance creative exchange between Germany and England. Critical Void, Munich, 2013. photo: Andreas ...
