2020 Marcus Schmickler "Could You Patent the Sun?"
With the sound production "Could You Patent the Sun?" on July 1, 2020, composer Marcus Schmickler has given a foretaste of what to expect on June 22, 2022 in Monheim am Rhein as opening of the first edition the Monheim Triennale: The evening-filling "draft of a Rhine landscape" with sounds from both sides of the river. The 20-minute work "Could You Patent the Sun?" was just a preview, which nevertheless provided an unforgettable adventure.
