Martin Breindl (b.1963 Vienna) studied at the University of Applied Arts, Vienna (Mag.art 2001) and at the University of Vienna. He works in the fields of media-performance, installation, net.art, radio art, sound art, video art and visual arts. Since 2001 he is one of the curators of FLUSS – society for the promotion of photo- and media art, based in Wolkersdorf, Austria
Martin is the founder of alien productions, together with Norbert Math (I), Andrea Sodomka (A) and August Black (USA), established in 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.
