The TesserAkt library is a collection of MaxForLive devices designed for real-time midi manipulation. These devices were developed in the context of the Fraktale Lab, within the artistic research project Atlas of Smooth Spaces (FWF 640) at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna.
Dieses Werk wurde mit freundlicher Unterstützung des österreichischen Bundesministeriums für Kunst, Kultur, öffentlicher Dienst und Sport realisiert.
This environement is developed and mantained by Adrian Artacho. The online repository can be found here:

In the article “Six memos for a pianist and a self-playing piano” we share sketches of our research process investigating spatial qualities with the the self-playing piano system CEUS by Bösendorfer which were conducted by pianist and eurhythmician Hanne Pilgrim, composer Adrián Artacho, complexity scientist Leonhard Horstmeyer and music theater director and video artist Markus Kupferblum.

The composition “Six memos for a pianist and a self-playing piano” emerged from a peer-to-peer interaction between Adrián Artacho and Hanne Pilgrim with the self-playing piano “CEUS” by Bösendorfer as case study on the null space of Eurhythmics. Markus Kupferblum developed a cinematic concept for the six co-created compositions by Adrián Artacho and Hanne Pilgrim.
