Robert Schwarz incorporates a background including computer music, sound studies and architecture into his installations, live performances and recorded music. With over 20 years of working in the field of sound, the Vienna-based sound artist approaches acoustic phenomena with an ear attuned to the inner systems of his subject, uncovering details normally hidden from perception. Crafting abstract structures through the interplay of field recordings and sound synthesis, his compositions suggest profound, dissociative states of listening and encourage a critical examination of our established listening practices.
