Steffen Krebber (born 18 March 1976 in Stuttgart) is a German composer, sound artist, and researcher.
Biography
Stefen Krebber studied composition with Marco Stroppa, Rebecca Saunders and Caspar Johannes Walter.[1] His work encompasses computer-generated music, instrumental and electroacoustic compositions, as well as sound art and language-based installations.
Work
Krebber’s works have been performed at various events, including the Gaudeamus Muziekweek[2] and the Wittener Tage für neue Kammermusik. One of his language installations, Weissagungen, is part of the collection of the Kolumba art museum in Cologne.[3]
In his sound art, Krebber explores the spatial and physical presence of sound, creating installations that immerse listeners in complex auditory environments. His research takes an interdisciplinary approach, combining scientific and artistic methods to gain new insights into sound and music. Linguistic aspects play a role in his works, where he employs language both aesthetically and conceptually.
Epistemology is central to his practice, as he investigates the limits and possibilities of knowledge through sound and music. Sociological themes are also reflected in his projects, examining the social and cultural contexts of music and sound.
In his book sinusoidal run rhythm, Krebber introduces a new theory of rhythm that defines rhythm as a wave, expanding beyond traditional discrete temporal values to include microtemporal and dynamic weightings. The core of this theory is that any irreducible combination of integer-frequency cosine functions yields a unique microtemporal grid and thus a specific sense of “grooviness.” This theory can serve both as an interpretive model for beats and meters, and as a generative tool for computer music.[4]
Awards
Krebber has received numerous grants and awards, including from the Akademie Schloss Solitude,[5] the Künstlerhof Schreyahn,[6] and the Kunststiftung Baden-Württemberg.[7]
