Über Enkidu rankX

Franco-German media artist Enkidu rankX [ınˈkiːdu ræŋk eks] was born 1972 in Saarbrücken / Germany. After his studies in Belgium he settled down in Berlin in 1996 where he is working and living up to this day. His work is comprised of video-art, glitch-art, installations and interaction with dance and theatre. “My art deals with issues such as relational miscommunication, the effect of technology on the human condition and the loss of identity that comes with the advent of virtualization an simulation.”

Old stuff yet new

the scientists of pop
the scientists of pop

I finally had the spare time to cleanly upload the BERLIN.electronics series to Archive.org. Listening to the stuff right now, I have to admit that some of it is shamefully naive (and sound wise quite mushy). But some songs, I can still relate to them. So if you wanna dwell musically in that past decade of ours: enjoy…

This is the Link >>

And if you havn’t got enough with the music, here’s some to remember in pictures >>

new text stuff

text headerSorry this is only news for my German friends: I have added some text on this page. More will follow soon. The concept of „And what happens after…“ has an English translation though. More will follow soon…

Auf dieser Seite gibt es jetzt auch was zu lesen: Konzepte, Kommentare, Essays. Feedback ist ausdrücklich erwünscht 😉

PS.: There is more English stuff in there new; check it out…

That’s a reblog

but who gives a s…

Boston #03 (c) 2008 Enkidu rankX

This is one of a series of works I did but only published on Tumblr. These are about 120cm large and I will repost more of the in the days to come.

You’ll find more on the matter oh this page >>

This btw is Boston re-re-rendered and it is about 120cm large.  So it needs a huge frame 😉

RE.flexion in Potsdam, Gelsenkirchen and Ludwigshafen

Mio & Robozee @work

Mio & Robozee @work - RE.flexion

We have shown our piece „RE.flexion“ by ANIMATRONIK with Prince Mio, Robozee and myself @ the following places:

  • Reithalle A – Potsdam (link)
  • Consoltheater Gelsenkirchen (link)
  • Wilhelm-Hack-Museum Ludwigshafen (link) during the Long Nights of the Arts (Lange Nacht der Museen)

It was great fun 😉 We will also be performing „RE.flexion“ & „And what happens after…“ during the „Tanztage Dresden“ – dates will follow.

UPDATE: lucky for Julio, unlucky for us, he will not be able to go to Dresden. So only RE.flexion there, sorry.

But here are the dates:

20th and 21st of April @ 21:oo

CANCELLED!!! sorry…

El Caballero de la Triste Figura


Don Quijote from Enkidu rankX on Vimeo.

Don Quijote is a PureData [pd] experiment that deals with the quality of human computer interfacing. Though only reactive to movement, the persona of the computer is felt as a presence, mainly because of movements of the pupil and the algorithms for the movement of the eyes themselves. This installation is fully real-time interactive and works in normal light in any room or gallery but also in a darkened room with a flash light.
Don Quijote uses [pd], GEM, boids, computer vision and a webcam…
