STR-DIGITAL BOHEMIAN LIFESTYLE

Besides travelling we spend almost all time in our Multimedia Homestudio. The GUNAFA-SPACE is in the 16th floor, with an overview of Frankfurt, and contains really everything we need. Our living area is right beside the studio, we dont pay for 2 spaces, dont have to drive to work. When cooperating with others the medium is CD-ROMS, ISDN, the net. The only reason to go out sometimes is to get food, cigarettes, wine, newspapers nearby, dresses and CDs from downtown, or to have some nice trips through the forests of the "Taunus".

Station Rose was founded in Vienna/Austria in 1988-

by artist Elisa Rose & Gary Danner

Since the opening of Station Rose a team based around core members has been working on HYPERMEDIA. This new art form has its roots in the classic fine arts, science and contemporary pop mythos and its rituals. Station Rose´s DIGITAL ARCHIVE plays a significant role. Here optical and acoustic samples collected during field research in Egypt, California, Japan, Europe, are first stored digitally, then looped, recombined, morphed etc., to be finally reincarnated in ->CD-ROMs , www pages, STR-live performances etc.

DIGITAL BOHEMIAN LIFESTYLE.
In 1994 we nearly spent 300 days in the studio, & we sure still do so now- morphing towards mind children. Our community IS the net more than Frankfurt.

The slogan still is "We shop therefore we still go out" (thanx to Barbara Kruger).

"Our engineers, programmers, scientists have given our species the technology to think and communicate in multi-media electronic forms. The next stages involve popularizing, personalizing, humanizing electronics. This will require the dedication of creative artists. To put it simply - the function of the human being in the Electronic future is to be a multi-media artist-creator."

Timothy Leary, PhD
