Ulla Rauter works as a media artist and musician at the interface of sound art and visual art - her works include performative sculptures, musical performances and self-built instruments. Her sensor-based, electronic musical instruments are shown internationally in performances and exhibitions. Central themes in her artistic work are silence as a material and place of longing and the human voice as the source material for translation and transformation processes. Ulla Rauter is co-founder and organizer of the annual Klangmanifeste audio show. She has been teaching at the Department of Digital Art at the University of Applied Arts Vienna since 2013.
