MXZEHN VJ TEAM SELTSAM&STRAHLER&34 THE MXZEHN ORCHESTRA
     

Since 1997 Bahadir Hamdemir and Stefan Kraus performed – until 2002 as genericPreset - since 2004 as MXZEHN on events and festivals across Europe. Each set is different but characteristic.

The visuals are 100% live and there’s no other VJ team that performs so physical and artistic to turn simple video mixers to
exploding visual organs. No boring “button shifting”- 34 and OPTOYZ are PAL rock’s that roll.

This wonderful as simple as beautiful audiovisual live performance is a fresh fruit of the long term collaboration with electronic duo Seltsam& Strahler.

The visuals by 34 are created with nothing but a Panasonic WJ MX-10. Very slow and patient, abstract cascades of sound and image. Constructed and deconstructed in metamorphosis.

 The flagship of MXZEHN is The MXZEHN Orchestra.
Four VJs and 3 Musicians turn every stage in a flashing virtual space.
Drums, Bass, Guitar, Camera and 3 WJ MX-10.Dirty undergound jazz combines with the archaic screams of the MXZEHN visuals – an immersive experience. Four VJs with only their black mixers on steel recks. In the back of the stage three big screens as tryptichon.

The screens show the signals of the three VJs, that are connected with each other. The signal, created by the first in the row is going through all three mixers. First ones output is second ones input and so on.
Each mixer is being performed and connects with one of the screens.
This way the screens show – in chronolocial order – the way of the signal through the system, and that means through the hands of the artists
