“If it ain’t baroque…” ist ein einzigartiges DJ-Set, das die Erhabenheit der Barockmusik mit dem futuristischen Twist synthetischer Klänge verbindet. In Zusammenarbeit mit AceAro.at und der A*Spec Community Vienna freuen wir uns, eine unvergessliche Stunde mit hypnotisierenden Beats und Harmonien bieten zu können. Als besonderes Schmankerl hat der KI-Künstler Hidéo SNES das Unmögliche geschafft: Hidéo hat die Stimme von Alessandro Moreschi, dem letzten Castrato-Sänger, synthetisiert und wird das erste echte Kastratenbarocklied seit 120 Jahren uraufführen!

It is said Hidéo Snes is otherworldly, different. A creature, so deranged, strange, and twisted, its presence remains in constant flux. A tentacled elder-god, a multi-breasted space-vixen, a many-faced, utterly fiendish beast. Hidéo Snes is not one, but many. Not one thought that echoes through the void, but a chorus. A frightful symphony of ideas. Fundamentally questioning the idea of artistic production processes, Hidéo Snes establishes a neomodern continuum, wherein the fractured self is being mirrored in equally distorted selves. Hidéo SNES works with artificial intelligence and conducts artistic research into its racist, misogynist and queerphobic aspects. SNES’ works have been presented at Mumok (Vienna, AT) and Kiasma (Helsinki, FI), and have been part of exhibitions on four continents.
