Daniel Lercher is himself not only a composer, musician and sound artist, but also a visual artist. His works are characterised by subtle musicality right up to the extremes of sound. He was born in Judenburg in 1983, completed the course for computer music and electronic media at the Institute for Composition and Electroacoustics from 2004 to 2007 and has since worked in the fields of electroacoustic composition/improvisation, live electronics, phonography, multimedia installations, radio art, music for dance and film. His list of activities includes numerous concerts (at festivals such as ORF-Musikprotokoll, Wien Modern, BCSC (AUS), Signal&Noise (CAN), Insomnia (NOR), ICAS (DE), La Petit Mort (CZ) and many more) and publications, also as a solo artist, as well as installations and residencies on four continents. He frequently collaborates with artists from Germany and abroad from various artistic disciplines. Daniel Lercher has received commissions for compositions, was awarded the BKA start-up grant in 2009 and was part of the NASOM program of the BmeiA/MICA in 2014/15.
