DONAUKLANG
Created for Ars Electronica '89, Linz, Austria. Not realised at that time due to the political situation in Europe.
The graphic score of DONAUKLANG was secretly brought to Linz from the Hotel Carlton in Bratislava thanks to a brave taxi driver. Unfortunately, the shipment was delayed and the score arrived in Linz after the deadline.
