Two years ago at TimeWarp we performed the Meta-Control set for the first time. Since then it’s been developed further, practiced more, and forked to various versions. Today we will perform these fresh Meta-Control pieces at TimeWarp 09 on a bright LCD screen setup.

Also as part of the TimeWarp Festival we participated in the panel Forum Kreative Stadt where we discussed how Ali Demirel and I did long-distance collaboration while building the Meta-Control set. It was moderated by Bernd Fesel. Other participants included Gerfried Stocker of Ars Electronica, Kai Beiderwellen, Jochen Hörisch, Monika Fleischmann, and Wolfgang Strauss.

Photographs from last night’s image check at the venue.

Last minute operation! After the Minitek show today, on Saturday night I will do another Meta-Control performance with Richie Hawtin at the Nocturnal Festival in LA. It will be at the Beatport Stage, see you if you are around. This time the Meta-Control pieces will be on a monster LED display, which looks something like the one in the image above (without the front rectangular screen).
