Serendipity deals with the accident of finding something good or useful while not specifically searching for it. This project is about true coincidence. As opposed to Pseudo-Random Number Generators a Zener diode is used to create true random numbers. It is easy to use the diode noise as a source of true randomness and inexpensive to construct. The data collection is equally simple through a computer sound-card http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avalanche_diode. All output (texts, images, sounds) of this project is based on true random numbers. According to the random numbers, the sound, the colour of the sound and the volume of the sound are varied. Thus, an improvised piece of music is created. The sound installation refers to the concept of aleatory music, based on aspects of chance and improvisation, as used by John Cage, Pierre Boulez, and Iannis Xenakis.

Dingliebe (Love of Things) is about reflection, perception and the competition between two languages mediating complexity. One is science. The other one is the language of art which has to understand science but doesn‘t want to become it. The idea of what good science is or should be, the images of science and scientificity, are difficult to grasp but no less significant for it.
According to the materials used, the sound, the colour of the sound and the volume of the sound are varied. Thus, an improvised piece of music is created from the most simple parts. The sound installation refers to the concept of aleatory music, based on aspects of chance and improvisation, as used by John Cage, Pierre Boulez, and Iannis Xenakis.
