Life

Andreas Rodler studied composition, music theory and electroacoustics at the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna and the Center Pompidou in Paris from 1990 . From 1995 to 1996 a study visit to the sound laboratory IRCAM - Center Pompidou Paris followed. His AlphaSphere was one of the Austrian participations in the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF 2008) in New York.

Since the mid-1990s, his artistic work has been primarily concerned with the perception of people, starting with the medium of sound . In his works he uses symphony orchestras , experimental music theater , sound installations and self-made sound objects. He developed video works, interactive exhibitions, and telematically networked media projects (cooperation with ORF , WDR , BR , ARTE , Radio France , EBU ).

Today he works under the artist name “sha.” On projects and wellness devices that are supposed to open up new, synaesthetic fields of perception by connecting the senses ( multisensory ) . Starting from the medium of sound, connections to other sensory qualities should be established. Color, light, shape, haptics , warmth, scent should be combined through sound in an overall experience of immersive art .

At the Institute for Perception Research GmbH in Vienna, he develops projects together with various interdisciplinary teams of experts. This development work is funded by the AWS Impulsprogramm (Austria Wirtschaftsservice), the WWFF (Wiener Wirtschaftsförderungsfonds), Departure (Creative Industries Vienna) and the Austrian Chamber of Commerce .

Rodler also appears internationally as a lecturer and creative consultant. His topics relate to creativity, perception, the relationship between art, science and business and self-discovery. In 2005, the sha. Holding GmbH founded in Vienna.
