Playing today ... Ultimate Nullifier

Within the Angel Position sessions, the track "Nullifier" first emerged as "Ultimate Nullifier". It is presented here in its "Minus"-Version, which means that the recording is stripped down to the drum patterns, bass guitar parts and vocals. A rough mix, so to speak. The electronics of the latter version are omitted. The title is, of course, a reference to the Ultimate Nullifier of Marvel's Fantastic Four comics – and more specifically, the classic first appearance of Galactus, courtesy of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. To paraphrase – "giving a match to a child who lives in a tinderbox."

CRITICAL VOID Maximiliansforum Z'EV + Fragment King

Image
Critical Void is an analytical audio work based on an urbanist study of the MaximiliansForum in Munich and its planning history. By employing interviews with key individuals and document research, Z‘EV, Alexandra von Bolz'n and Mark Kammerbauer developed a site-specific audio performance and work that was performed live on site on 24.07.2013. The project was curated by the Kulturreferat of the City of Munich. This is a step-by-step documentation of the project. The location that includes the MaximiliansForum art space can be found beneath the crossing of Maximilianstrasse and Altstadtring in Munich. It has escalators that are currently in disuse. It is denominated officially as pedestrian tunnel. It is by far the largest of its kind in the city. Rumor has that original planning intended a traffic tunnel. So, what happened here? On Wednesday, 24.07.2013 at 19:00 we performed CRITICAL VOID live after a very friendly introduction by Elisabeth Hartung of the Culture Offi...

THE NEW NEXIALIST TRI-HEAD LOGO

Image
The original Nexialist “Tri-Head” logo was developed in 2000. Its basis is the “Helvetica Man” symbol that was commissioned by the US Department of Transportation and produced by AIGA, the American Institute of Graphic Arts. It is oriented on previous works, such as the graphic design for the 1972 Munich Olympic Games. “Helvetica Man” is part of the original 1974 series of pictograms or symbols intended to communicate facilities and functions to the public. The symbols are copyright free and intended for public use. This was part of the motivation behind creating a logo for Nexialist – it was intended to be “un-copyrightable” and hence, universal. In difference to the original “Helvetica Man” the “Tri-Head” is broader in order to accommodate three heads, with one additional head to both sides of the original, central head. The three heads were intended to represent the three core interests of Nexialist: architecture, music, text. In 2022 the “Tri-Head” was re-imagined for the 25th anni...

Furnace Lodge (FK 25th Anniversary Edition) von Fragment King A special edition of ANATOMIC MUSIC celebrating the 20th anniversary of these recordings is available at Bandcamp. All selections written and produced by Fragment King / Mark Kammerbauer. All tracks were originally recorded in 2004 within the Anatomic Music sessions at White Furnace Lodge, including guitar/ bass guitar/ vocals and effect treatment, the "digiscrub" method of digitally deconstructing session material, and the "studio" approach to the various audio recording formats and media. Select tracks are previously unreleased. Original liner notes: anatomic music is a composition and recording project employing specific design strategies inherent in architectural design. for one, the origin of the compositions is an exploding singular moment in time unfolding itself outside its nontopological point of origin (the human brain) into the topological space surrounding any sound projection device. in...
