NWM2013/SPRING BREAK presents Planetarium KRAUTROCK: a Multimedia Audio Visual Timeline. Artist Kevin Arrow and Musician Romulo Del Castillo present an audio and visual experience on Krautrock, an umbrella term for the rock and electronic experimental music that originated in Germany in the late 1960s. The term is a result of the English-speaking world’s reception of the music at the time and not a reference to any one particular scene, style, or movement, as many who came to be known as krautrock artists were not familiar with one another.

Largely divorced from the traditional blues and rock & roll influences of British and American rock music up to that time, the period contributed to the evolution of electronic dance and ambient music as well as the birth of post-punk, alternative rock and New Age music. Key artists associated with the tag include Can, Amon Düül II, Ash Ra Tempel, Faust, Popol Vuh, Cluster, Tangerine Dream, Klaus Schulze, Neu!, and Kraftwerk.

This presentation will be accompanied by the technical support of Mark Bennett, Robert Cruz, Dylan Römer and Barron Sherer.

Krautrock at the Planetarium is presented by Miami Art Museum and Miami Science Museum in collaboration with SPRING BREAK as part of MAM’s New Work Miami 2013 exhibition.
