[Tekst dostępny tylko w języku angielskim] The VJ duo Luma.Launisch, alias Astrid Steiner and Florian Launisch, create their surreal worlds on screens in techno-clubs and classical concert halls. With their background in filmmaking the duo aims to tell stories. Their visual journeys can pilot you into a colourful balloon, letting you float over the boats of the Bosphorus only to land in New York’s Central Park.

With their background in filmmaking the duo aims to tell stories. Their visual journeys can pilot you into a colourful balloon, letting you float over the boats of the Bosphorus only to land in New York’s Central Park.
With their eccentric live shows they have accompanied musicians like Cluster, Jimmy Edgar, Akufen, Groove Armada, Juan Atkins, Peter Kruder, Richard Dorfmeister, Electric Indigo, Luciano, Josh Wink, Mocky, Extrawelt, Dj Mehdi and many more.
In the last years luma.launisch started to flirt intensively with Jazz and new classical music, leading to collaborations with artists such as the Zawinul Syndicate, Kristjan Järvi’s Absolute Ensemble, Gene Pritsker’s Sound Liberation, as well as with Harvey S, Dave Taylor and Adam Holzmann (musical director for Miles Davis).
Ilan Katin (Modul8.us, Mapping Festival Geneva) describes Luma.Launisch as “visualists with an eye for the power of the image. ... They were not only doing VJing but also working with Jazz groups and choruses. On top of that their images were curious constructs that were not completely literal but balanced in such a way that there was room for the viewer to connect the meaning in their own way.”
Luma.Launisch has gained the attention of the international art scene, including invitations to present video installations at the Benaki Museum Athens, the Photobiennale Thessaloniki, the exhibition Sound:Frame at Vienna’s Künstlerhaus, the Austrian Cultural Forum in New York & the CNN screen in Times Square.
