Jung An Tagen

* 1985, Austria

* 1985, Austria
Jung’s body of work as a filmmaker stands squarely in the tradition of abstract conceptual experimental film. Through the application of newest technologies, he succeeds in updating this tradition in a manner aesthetically suited to the 21st century.
Testing strategies of physical disorientation and forceful sonic phenomena, encouraging minds and bodies to calculate and intuit their own place in spacetime.
As a composer he worked on film and theatre scores for directors like Lukas Marxt, Johann Lurf & Miloš Lolić. Since 2019 Jung An Tagen is collaborating with the filmmaker Rainer Kohlberger on audio-visual performances that conquer the observer’s perceptual apparatus and transports the audience into the presence of an immediate immensity, where boundaries of self and world become obscured..
Backed up by 2 decades of discographic activity under diverse pseudonyms and multiple collaborations on labels such as Editions Mego and Diagonal, Jung An Tagen performs tirelessly at Festivals like Unsound or Sonic Acts, researching the boundaries of techno and computer music. It’s addictive music. Music in constant explosion. In 2020 Jung founded the netlabel label ETAT.xyz. Setting aside any hint of expressionist gestures, one is left with form and abstract sound, emotional alienation: “dissociative, psychoacoustic, computer music”.
