| About the album |
|
The album TELEMATIC by Giorgi Koberidze (Tbilisi, Georgia) and Ursula Winterauer (Vienna, Austria), who performs under the moniker Gischt, documents a shared process of listening, researching and responding to specific urban environments. Sound becomes a medium of resonance – between people, places and possible futures.
Both composers sensitively capture the acoustic conditions of Innsbruck and Nantes through field recordings of sounds, noises, social interactions, and cultural connotations. These fragments are layered, arranged, and assembled in the studio to create new sonic architectures that reflect and transform the specific qualities of each location, like an acoustic terroir.
MurMur by Giorgi Koberidze transforms acoustic instrumental sounds through sampling and modulation to create a new composition in which organic and electronic elements merge.
When Dust Settles, composed by Ursula Winterauer, transforms construction site noises and voices into a reflection on impermanence and renewal.
Both pieces make the urban space tangible during its transition, revealing it to be a dynamic fabric of continuous change where atmospheres, movements, and intensities are constantly being reconfigured.
This album originated as an initiative by Openspace from Innsbruck and was shaped through artistic residencies, hosted by Openspace Innsbruck (AT) and Trempo, Nantes (FR) within the framework of the ongoing Creative Europe Project SLASH TRANSITION. |

Active in film and theatre, he composed the score for What Do We See When We Look at the Sky?, awarded by the International Cinephile Society and nominated for Best Music at the German Film Critics Awards. His research into blending electronic and classical timbres – central to his master’s thesis – continues in works such as Forests, Tales, Cities, Forests, recipient of the Tsinandali Award.

Ursula Winterauer, who performs under the moniker Gischt, is a composer, electronic music producer, and curator based in Vienna.
Her practice explores raw sonic structures shaped by digital processes, contrasted with analog warmth and the vulnerability of the human voice. This results in layered compositions that draw on industrial sound aesthetics, combining field recordings, bass guitar, synthesizers, and dense electronic textures into immersive environments. Often developed through close collaboration with musicians and performers, her works function as structural sound scores rather than fixed notation.
Winterauer develops pieces for ensembles, works as a sound designer and film composer, and creates compositions for contemporary dance. In addition, she is the bassist of the doom-metal band Eaeres and one half of the noise duo The Answer is No alongside Maja Osojnik. She is the co-founder and label head of Ventil Records.
