Moritz Simon Geist (Techno-Roboter)

In the organizer's words:

In Moritz Simon Geist's techno robot performance, custom-built musical robots "TRIPODS ONE" create each sound live on stage, redefining the techno music experience.

Geist, a German musician and artist, uses these robotic instruments to produce unique, contemporary electronic music. Each machine, from the sound generator to the sound-producing sculpture, is designed to produce dynamic sounds that are in tune with modern electronic music structures.

The performance is both a musical and visual experience. Geist's robotic orchestra includes customized instruments such as a futuristic kalimba, a pneumatic hi-hat and a drone guitar that add a tactile and visual dimension to the music. This approach strengthens the audience's connection to the sounds they hear.

With a background in electrical engineering and a passion for hands-on sound creation, Geist's work is driven by a desire to physically interact with music. His robotic instruments are made using advanced technologies such as 3D printing, CNC milling and laser cutting. Known for videos that have been viewed millions of times, such as the Popcorn Jazz Robot or the giant drum robot MR-808 Tripods One, Geist brings machine music to dance floors.
