Lukas Taido

Intro： Lukas Taido is an internationally working media-artist based in Berlin, Germany. Originating from audio-arts (audio-installations, music, sound-design, soundscapes etc) he began to increasingly work using immersive 3D-audio systems since 2014 and swing more in direction of the video- and media-arts realm during the following years. While creating soundtracks for a large number of audio/video-installations, projection mappings and large-scale artworks in public spaces all over the world (China, Hungary, Italy, Brasil, France and more) he additionally began to develop concepts for his own audio/video-installations. For these he would chose the visual artists to cooperate with, to individually best fit the artistic and technical needs of each single project. He is known in China for being one three composers so far honored to create music for the opening of the top floor of the Shanghai Tower ("Summit 632") using the installed, worldwide unique, 260-channel Iosono 3D-audio system. Nowadays he is specialized on developing artistic, mainly site-specific concepts and audiovisual content (TV-Tower in Dortmund, Munich Airport, Castle of Weimar & many more), still creates soundtracks for public performances and videomappings like the 100 year anniversary of the famous Bauhaus in Dessau, City of BadHomburg's celebration of 250 yrs Hölderlin or sometimes for the industry (German car manufacturer Opel in Rüsselsheim, Continental in Hannover, hotelchain Dormero), as well as for the world of festivals (Genius Loci, Nights of the Lights, Tech Open Air, Most Wanted:Music, Transmediale...). Apart from that his audiovisual works can be seen in galleries, theaters, art collections Quote: "The probably most amazing, inspiring and uplifting experience of my whole career was the Shanghai Tower project in China. What an amazing venue, what an amazing city and all these great, friendly and highly professional people there to work together with to make our visions come to life."
