- Gideon Kiers
Telcosystems researches the relation between the behavior of programmed numerical logic and the perception of a conversion of this behavior into the physical world, seeking for its own narrative in the world of abstract spatial image and sound. The hallmark of their work is its lucid and restrained aestheticism, which is closely related to the technology they use.
They produce films, video clips, live performances, installations, software, soundtracks, and prints. Their work has been shown at film- and new media festivals such as Ars Electronica (Linz), IFFR (Rotterdam), .MOV festival (Tokyo), EMAF (Osnabrück), Sonar (Barcelona), Shortfilm Festival Oberhausen, Airwaves (Reykjavík), Short Film Festival Hamburg, Ctrl-Alt-Del (Maastricht), Abstraction Now (Vienna), De Appel (Amsterdam), The New York Digital Salon, Mu (Eindhoven), Boijmans van Beuningen (Rotterdam) and Künstlerhaus (Vienna).
