At first view you don’t feel like machines, buttons or knobs have a lot in common with imagination or fantasy. But out of a longtime wish, the MACHINA IMAGINIS art collective, consisting of the artist Jonathan Owadja, the sound designer Maria S. Honegger, and the technician Marcel Siegwart, designs colourful machines using analogue keys and switches that produce sounds and lights to create moods – in the room around as well as in the person that operates them. The imagination machine is at the same time piece of art and toy, it can be used for installations, as an instrument or for performances. Age doesn’t matter, it’s fun for everyone!
