When Machines Become Music: Loopin’ Lab at Pasinger Fabrik
On Friday, November 6, 2026, Loopin’ Lab in Gallery 1 of Pasinger Fabrik combines a guided tour of the exhibition Fake Noise – True Image with an extraordinary concert performance. Between sound art, installation, and experimental music, an artistic experience emerges that transforms industrial materials into vibrant sound bodies.
An Aesthetic Experience between Machine and Human
Loopin’ Lab consists of Munich musicians and tinkerers Michael Cramer and Saschmo Bibergeil. At the center of their performance is the self-built machinery Ghost, a musical robot that imparts a distinct spirit from the machine to the pieces. Guitars meet drill machines, pumps, saws, and laboratory flasks – an unusual instrumentation with precise mechanics, surprising sound colors, and a good dose of humor.
Exhibition Tour and Concert as a Total Experience
The event takes place as part of the exhibition Fake Noise – True Image – Synergies in Art. The showcase brings together sound machines, parts of stage designs, photographs, prints, and cardboard comics. This opens up an art-historically appealing dialogue between visual art, theatrical aesthetics, object art, and experimental music.
The exhibition tour starts at 7:30 PM and introduces the material, spatial, and acoustic contexts of the exhibition. Starting at 8 PM, the concert translates the exploration of the works into sound. The focus is on a performance in which technical everyday objects leave their original functions and gain new cultural significance as instruments.
Industrial Romanticism with Danceable Energy
Stylistically, Loopin’ Lab moves between Steampunk, Arcane, and Art Nouveau. The music has the character of industrial romanticism while remaining experimental, immediate, and danceable. Mechanical movements, metallic resonances, and the contrast between human play and automated processes shape the exhibition atmosphere.
The exhibition itself also connects to the location: The Pasinger Fabrik was once the headquarters of Ritterwerke, where household appliances were produced from 1912 to 1982. A sound machine specifically developed for the location from hand-cranked meat slicers refers to this industrial past and makes history accessible as a hearable, physical experience.
Cultural Education through Sound, Material, and Movement
The event imparts cultural education not through distance but through the immediate involvement of the senses. Visitors experience how material, mechanics, spatial effects, and rhythm merge into an installation. The exploration of the works expands into an aesthetic experience: Seeing, hearing, and reflecting intertwine.
Conclusion: An Evening for Curious Ears
Loopin’ Lab promises an evening where exhibition and concert do not stand separately side by side but act as a cohesive total artwork. Those who want to experience sound art, unusual instruments, machine aesthetics, and performative installations directly will find an independent and inspiring art experience at Pasinger Fabrik. The connection of the tour and concert invites participants to discover the exhibition live and perceive art with all their senses.
