Gerhard Eckel uses sound for a discovery and study of ways of world-making. The aim of his research is the articulation of aesthetic and epistemic aspects of sound art. In this context, artistic experience is understood as an amalgam of action, perception and reflection. His works are results of research processes that make use of the practice of composition, choreography and installation art and interaction design and instrument making. Gerhard Eckel is a professor of computer music and multimedia at the Art University of Graz.
