Jorn Ebner
Illustrator, internet- and sound artist
Jorn Ebner studied English literature and visual arts before turning his attention to the internet as an artistic site. He is currently engaged in a long-term project focusing on recording urban sounds. Among other concerns, he is interested in the phenomenon of urban beekeepers and forms of bee communication. His aim is to develop a kind of artistic, sound-based, urban utopia in the form of an internet-based, sound-art project. During his stay at AIR in Krems, Jorn Ebner will design a short online sound work or sound study for Imago Dei, comprising three components: human voices, bee sounds, and urban and landscape sounds. The interdependency between man and honeybees calls into question the relationship between offering and sacrifice, man and nature.
