The Dawn of Dimi

Erkki Kurenniemi is an internationally less-known pioneer of electronic art. He composed computer-based music and designed his own instruments as early as the 1960s. His career embraces music, film, computers and robotics with natural ease. Kurenniemi records his thoughts, everyday observations, images and objects constantly and obsessively. All this in an effort to combine man and machine – to reconstruct the soul of man. Pan Sonic does a live performance using Kurenniemi’s original, restored 1960s DIMI instruments.
