12:48 am
be with and i get the impression we do better at things we've never done before and where the end result is completely uncertain will it work if you see how well it worked the design the hype and plan special about sound is that we perceive a lot of it some consciously and of course that gives us a great opportunity that we can use sound to shake moods from it linking current. and how do sound shape our perception something florian can investigate in his studio the stuttgart musician and composer develops new sounds. all types of clients. ok go back to the beginning please because. in recent years he's concentrated on museums for the hashtag mine museum exhibition in stuttgart stuff gallery for example he worked with students from the music academy to produce a kind of audio guide for smartphones. it's users get both information and music.

12:51 am
really interested in saida so i think this image i think they should. florian kepler is interested in nearly everything along with his museum projects the music designer is developing sounds for electric cars and visa horrific is a slight on and he supplied investigations can be turned the other way and be of interest music years while he was economics merriment with these driving algorithms meant to meet. with mint once again what i really love is when you see how both areas relate to and don't exclude one another. is. florian traveled a long way before he finally brought art and commercial success together originally the sound inventor wants to be a rock star. for a time his band held the pictures was the opening act for blood and bob geldof but the big break never came in hindsight it may have been for the best florian kepler
