A.k.a. Granufunk

Jacob Korn is an artist in residence at the Trans-Media-Lab (TMA) in Dresden-Hellerau, Germany, working on the connection of interactive participation offers in the context of electronic dance music. The search for an ideal format of a virtual environment, which extends the classic dialogue between musician and audience at parties to a third dimension, is the key element in his approach to an audio-visual concert. The movements on the dance-floor are recorded with the aid of a motion-sensing-system into the live-set. They are then embedded into the presentation of electronic dance music by means of attractive visual objects - almost in the form of a dialogue. The music has a deeply technoid, melodious house-sound. Jacob Korn has already worked as remixer for Clueso (FOUR music) and has produced records for various international labels, icluding Running Back, Klakson and AstroLab.
