eye-catching grayscale audiovisual art
dynamic distorted idm-beats
criss-crossing art and club worlds
immersive synaesthetic experience for ears and eyes
incite/ is the Hamburg-based audiovisual electronics duo of Kera Nagel (solo: axiomatic integration) and André Aspelmeier (solo: GradCom). Mixing eye-catching experimental audiovisual art with dynamic distorted IDM grooves, the duo criss-crosses art and club worlds, creating intense experiences for ears and eyes. Fragmented electric junk, fragile bursts of static noise and extra-charged sub-bass-kicks join abstract monochromatic imagery. incite/ play seriously weird glitch and quasi-danceable grooves in synced conjunction with intense grayscale visuals.
incite/ 's audiovisual creations center around the duo's everyday life. The distorted visuals are mostly unrecognizable, hiding the underlying stories – an exciting expedition for the audience.
