Moritz Simon Geist is a visual artist, researcher, and music producer whose work centers on the intersection of robotics, physical sound, and algorithmic agency. His practice explores the transition from functional mechanical instruments to autonomous entities, examining the materiality, psychological and aesthetic conditions of human-machine interaction.

With a research foundation in semiconductor physics and robotics, Geist deconstructs complex technical systems to investigate material fragility and algorithmic behavior. His artistic evolution has moved from performative kinetic installations towards large-scale autonomous sculptures that utilize artificial intelligence and computer vision to engage with their surroundings.

< About >

In the algo-kinetic techno performance Tripods One, Moritz Simon Geist explores the tension between human intent and the autonomy of digital agents. By integrating AI into the compositional music process and visual generation, the performance moves beyond automation to confront a more uncomfortable question: what happens when you lose artistic control?

This dialogue with algorithms transforms the machine from a tool into a collaborator — and with the physical presence of robotic sound generators, these abstract processes become grounded in mechanical reality. Who truly holds agency in an age of algorithmic co-creation?

< Key learnings >

  • How AI shifts from tool to creative collaborator in live performance

  • What "loss of control" feels like in practice — and why it matters

  • How physical, mechanical presence grounds abstract algorithmic processes

  • What artistic co-creation with AI reveals about agency in product work
