Department of DIGITAL ARTS / Ruth Schnell
A large part of my work is based on the discovery, appropriation and development of new, mainly interactive tools.
Learning new hardware and software and experimenting with setups and spatial
implementation act as catalysts for artistic ideas and projects.

Since more than two decades media-artist, director, choreographer and composer Klaus Obermaier
creates innovative works with new media in performing arts, music and installations,
highly acclaimed by critics and audience. His inter-media performances and artworks
are shown at festivals and theaters throughout Europe, Asia, North and South America and Australia.
Many
of his projects, such as D.A.V.E, APPARITION, LE SACRE DU PRINTEMPS, DANCING HOUSE or EGO, are considered groundbreaking
and genre-defining for the development of new artistic forms of human interaction
with digital systems.
Klaus Obermaier is visiting professor at the University IUAV of
Venice/Italy and at Babes-Bolyai University
in Cluj-Napoca/Romania teaching interactive arts and performances. He
taught as an adjunct professor for composition at the Webster University Vienna
and held courses for choreography and new media at the Accademia Nazionale di
Danza di Roma.
