Identity and Self-Branding. Self-presentation for artists Workshop with Helge Hinteregger and Philip Röggla
Being an artist means not just selling the art but the artist behind it. Even avoiding the "show" can evoke images beyond the purely musical. Stereotypes can interfere with the arts message. However by challenging the audiences expectations in a musical and a social way the arts message can be brought to a new level. This is not only a challenging task for the professional musician but for the private person behind the artist as well.

Boon and Bane of Music Publishers Discussion with Sarah Laila Standke (Universal Edition) | Pierluigi Billone (Composer) | Margarethe Maierhofer-Lischka (Schallfeld Ensemble) Antje Müller moderation
In 1962 Ernst Krenek wrote in his article „Verlegen, verlegt verlogen“ (a play on words with „verlegen“ - to publish and „verlogen“ - lying) about „a composer's experiences with his publishers“. Krenek’s own experiences were numerous, and his oeuvre is still scattered around about 20 different publishers in different countries. What are the composers’ expectations? And what are the publishers’ obligations and possibilities? Does a composer actually need a publisher? Publishers, composers and presenters will discuss these questions, which seem to be more up-to-date than ever.

This symposium is the starting point of an extensive EU-project, which was initiated by impuls within the frame of the Ulysses-Network. The young, but already internationally succeeding composers Mirela Ivičević and Julien Malaussena (impuls), Javier Elipe Gimeno and Ariadna Alsina (IRCAM), Boris Bezemer and Mikołaj Laskowski (Gaudeamus) as well as Clara Iannotta and Simon Løffler (IMD) are commissioned by impuls and its partners to develop new compositions to the experimental films of the Austrian filmmaker Peter Tscherkassky – in specific for his internationally praised CinemaScope Trilogy, for which he also received multiple awards – within the next one to two years. impuls 2017 provides the starting point for the project, and interconnects the composers not only with the filmmaker, but also members of Ensemble Nikel as future interpreters as well as coaches such as Wolfgang Mitterer and Jorge Sánchez-Chiong to accompany the process of creation. And of course impuls is looking forward to the project's realization in Graz in 2019.
