JOB KARMA - set up in 1997, is an audiovisual project from Wroclaw that explores
the trans-ambient area of postindustrial aesthetics. The band was formed by
Maciek Frett and Aureliusz Pisarzewski. The visual side of the project is the
scope of Arek Baginski's contribution.
"In their suggestive live shows they combine
performance and video art showing the relations human - machines and machine
- sacrum. They picture the collapse of values at the cost of growing commercialization
of everyday individual and social existence. In the meticulously prepared musical
domain, Job Karma combines the analog and digital sound of electronic instruments
with looped movie sequences and a prepared trance rhythm."
Job Karma members are also responsible for holding and
organizing annual musical events and festivals in Wroclaw:
- WROCLAW INDUSTRIAL
FESTIVAL
- RITUAL - audiovisual event
- WROCLAW INDEPENDENT FESTIVAL
- ENERGY OF SOUND FESTIVAL
