Munich radio-hacking orchestra (Mrhor)

Although the word 'orchestra' hints at something classical, the group does not offer anything like that. (sigh) In many ways it is an 'anti-orchestra'. Melody, rhythm, structure, harmony etc are thrown out the window in favor of collective anti-musical absurdity and corruption of creative expression by means of home-made/hacked electronic, food, humans, flora, fauna and noise itself as an instruments. But as to us, it seems pleasant, interesting and certainly very musical social act inspired by everything. MRHOR operates as a little local network of technocreative individuals. Initiated and loosly coordinated by Natalia Borissova. Inspired by Sarah Washington and Knut Aufermann.
