History of the TU Studio
The electronic studio of the Technical University of Berlin has existed since 1953. (…) The “artistic career” of the studio began in 1964 (…) In 1974 (…) Only Manfred Krause remained, supported by the new studio manager Folkmar Hein and by the research and teaching assistant Ingrid Bihler.  In 1979 (…) the Electronic Studio opened up to the international world, (…) through cooperation with the Berlin artist program of the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) since around 1979. The resulting The resulting activities and productions can be described as the actual breakthrough of the TU studio with far-reaching consequences: In 1982 the “Inventionen” festival was founded, bundled with a strongly expanding activity in the local and international public, (…) After several moves, this development led to a new studio building in the EN building in 1996, ideally suited for any type of room sound reinforcement, used for appropriately oriented teaching and research, for composition and sound reinforcement, meeting place for students, lecturers and guests. Folkmar Hein
