Courier Jobs in Berlin

Studio Apelbaum (and Analogdream e.V.) based in Berlin Mitte, led by Jonathan Apelbaum, explores gender, sexuality, and intimacy through oil paintings that merge traditional art forms with interactive technologies. Based in Berlin, the studio's approach intertwines oil paintings, interactive installations, performances, sound, and design. Their 'cognitive' paintings, developed over six years, dynamically respond to the environment using programmable LED panels, integrating thousands of addressable RGB warm white LEDs. Collaborating with performers and dancers, they infuse A.I. and machine learning for movement tracking and sound recognition, creating a multi-sensory dimension.

Studio Apelbaum's vision transcends analog-digital and traditional-new divides, celebrating collaboration among engineers, painters, coders, and performers. Functioning as a creative home, the studio fosters discussions, exhibitions, and performances. Collaborations with diverse cultural spaces and events, including Lunchbox Candy, IKSK, Anomalie Art Club, ARTCO, Samuelis Baumgarte Galerie, and Aeden club in Berlin, underscore their commitment to inclusivity and engaging a broader spectrum of society.

AnalogDream is a queer artist studio that emerged nearly two decades into the 21st century out of the increasingly technological and less and less fixed, binary world that we as a society are constantly creating for ourselves. We work at the intersection of contemporary art, performing art, music and rave, focusing our diverse skills and knowledge on exploring how each can amplify the capabilities of the other. AnalogDream brings together painters, programmers, dancers, engineers, audio artists and filmmakers to ask a myriad of urgent questions : how do we connect with each other and break gender and social boders, how do we create safe and intimate space for queer and non queer people form old and young - both through the artworks we produce and the means by which we produce them.
