Dear Joachim

About

Web-based digital condolence and contemplative spatial audio installation reflecting on the personal impact of late media artist and designer Joachim Sauter. It unites the encounters between colleagues and students of different generations, who came together to remember him.

You are invited to leave a short voice contemplation that will be part of the acoustic installation online and at selected events such as Ars Electronica festival in Linz or the UdK Medienhaus Rundgang in Berlin. Both places, events and communities very close to Joachim.
