Co-organized by Re-Records and supported by Hong Kong New Music Ensemble, featuring new media artists from Switzerland and Japan, “Medium” is a cutting edge multi-media performance interlinking sight, sound and senses. With the use of unorthodox sound generating techniques, old-fashion television, and alcohol as the mediums, this is an interactive performance that goes beyond sight and sound.

Niko[la] Mounoud born chromosome XY at 46° 26′ 00” N, 6° 55′ 00” E. presents his solo project “…”.
Instead of using cords, wind or percussions, he prefers to focus his work on the feedback (larsen) of both analogue and digital materials. Impossible to be bored, challenging to dance, merging of all styles of music, it is a subtle crossover between hard composed parts and sweet improvisations. All of that condensed in a short time live that will definitely clean your ears and reconcile you with noises.
Niko is also curator of some itinerant music events and festivals in Switzerland such as Nocturnes MadeOneShot and LUFF – Lausanne Underground Film & music Festival. He is the co-founder of an independent laboratory for photography and cinema on celluloid called “On fait du l’art !” based in Lausanne, Switzerland.
