As the largest biennial gathering of university studios for electronic music, next_generation 8.0 offers young composers a platform to present their new compositional developments.
The eighth edition of the next_generation biennial festival took place at ZKM from Wednesday, June 5 to Sunday, June 9, 2019. Over five days, an exciting and dense program was offered on the latest positions of the themes »fixed media«, »spatial music« and »live electronics«.
2019, the festival focus was on »live coding«. Thus, next_generation 8.0 guarantees a representative overview of the current creative work of the next generation of composers in the context of technology and art.
