"Marko
Kosnik, polymedia artist, started his carrier in 80's as cofounder
of Laibach, writing concepts as well for the groups Junajtit Adis,
Cavis Negra, and Most. Since the beginning of his collaborative
projects he was producing creative environments, open labs and media
platforms, dealing with synchronization of authors from different
backgrounds and self organization. Crossing from acoustic studies
of subterranean Karst to prefomances and installations with sonorostatics
(electro-acoustic plates) he entered performance with own productions
of Egon March Institute, and started building interactive environments
in 1993. Full complexitiy of his approach was presented in PARA
trilogy, including Parahouse (self-producing environment for networked
performance, Ostranenie 1997).
Kosnik acts as performer, writer, musician, installation arist,
organizer, producer and video instrumentalist." |
