Konstantina Orlandatou studied composition, music theory, piano and accordion in the Conservatory of Athens (Greece) and multimedia composition (M.A.) at the University of Music and Drama in Hamburg. In 2014 she completed her doctoral dissertation with the title “Synaesthetic and intermodal audio-visual perception: an experimental research” in the University of Hamburg (Department of Systematic Musicology).
Since 2018 she leads the project “Moving Sound Pictures” at the University of Music and Drama in which she uses VR technologies as an interface for art mediation between music and visual arts. Through playful actions users can interact with paintings of well-known artists of the 20th century in a three dimensional space and generate music through this interaction. Her latest interactive VR installation “SEE, HEAR, PLAY KANDINSKY!” has been exhibited this year in the Hamburger Kunsthalle.
