Martin is founder of alien productions, together with Norbert Math (I), Andrea Sodomka (A) and August Black (USA), established 1997 as an artists’ network for theory and practice of new technology and media. Typical for some of their interactive installations is the use of high end medical interfaces, like a computer aided biofeedback system in “Auto-regulative Spaces” or a non-mydriatic fundus camera for “The Thought Projector”.
Since 2013 they are working on their long-term project “metamusic” which involves a flock of grey parrots as creative partners in an artistic research process. Martin currently lives and works in Vienna, Austria.
