Mit Ohne is a sound documentation of an audio/visual installation by Yves Netzhammer and Steinbrⁿchel.
The installation entitled ôThe feeling of precise instability when holding thingsö was part of the group
exhibition ôWohntrΣume/WohnrΣumeö exhibited from 26.07. to 28.09.2003 at the Museum fⁿr Gestaltung in
Zurich, Switzerland. The audio sections by Steinbrⁿchel where composed in sync with the visuals by Yves
Netzhammer and succeed in translating and supporting the poetic vibrancy and slow morphing
movements of the 3d rendered animation. For the exhibition an atmospheric fragile and detailed work was
created involving a three-part projection and multichannel sound which conveys an abstract audio and
visual approach to the environment surrounding us and the concept of a room itself. Each audio track
takes the listener into a new form of ôroomö and simple patterns of single tones are layered into dense
movements surrounding the listeners space. The crystalline polished sounds form a highly precise
environment which interacts with particles of melodies searching for space to breathe. Between the tracks
there are no pauses which gives the dedicated listener the feeling of being moved suddenly from one room
to the other. Space and silence are sensitively woven into each other while forming an atmospheric and
organic surrounding. Through the sound the feeling in every room changes from dark to bright, from large
to small, from lonely to crowded, from silent to loud.
Ralph Steinbrⁿchel, born in 1969, studied Communication Design at Central Saint Martins School in
London, where he acquired a Masters of Arts and Design with distinction. He now lives and works as a
musician and graphic designer in Zurich, Switzerland. In 2002 his composition ½zwischen.raum╗ [Domizil,
Zurich, 2002] was distinguished with the Max Brand Award for Electronic Music [phonoTAKTIK.02 Festival,
New York]. In the same year he received a compositional scholarship from ôPro Helvetiaö, Arts Council of
Switzerland, to work on his release ½circa╗ [LINE, New York, 2003]. Last releases were the collaboration
½status╗ [12k] with Frank Bretschneider [raster-noton] from Berlin, the solo-CDs ½stage╗ [LINE] and
½basis╗ [room40] and in October 2007 the collaborational release ½falte╗ [nonvisualobjects] with Bernd
