Music Informatics students went on an excursion to Geneva to visit the European Organisation for Nuclear Research CERN. Prof. Markus Klute (KIT) and Michael Hoch (CERN) had invited the students, accompanied by Michele Samarotto (IMWI/University of Music), together with students from the Karlsruhe Academy of Arts, to take part in an exchange as part of Michael Hoch's ‘art@CMS’ programme at CERN. They were able to take part in the ‘SciArt Dialogue Week’ for a week, listen to lectures by world-famous physicists, admire the various experiments at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider), the largest particle accelerator in the world, up close and personal, and enter into dialogue with our colleagues from the Art Academy and scientists on site.
In a radio report by Susanna Niedermayr about the visit, you can listen to excerpts from the interviews with the students as well as sound impressions of the first work sketches that were created in the aftermath of the excursion.
