Sabine Schäfer

Sabine Schäfer (*1957) is a media artist and composer. She develops multimedia, computer-controlled space-sound art and interactive prints with audio QR codes as well as works with augmented reality. The micro- and macrocosm of nature is the focus of her artistic work. With the method of EndoMikroSonoScopy, she creates audio compositions that make the sound microcosm of animal voices aesthetically tangible. She often collaborates with scientists and scientific institutions, which leads to interdisciplinary artistic works. Her works are part of the collection of the ZKM and the City of Wolfsburg. She lives and works in Karlsruhe.
