Cory Arcangel downloaded clips of cats ‘playing’ pianos on YouTube, and edited these clips using a code he wrote to recreate Arnold Schoenberg’s composition, widely considered the first ‘atonal’ work of music.

‘Verloren und gefunden’ (‘Lost and found’) at Kunstraum Benjamin Richard Leipzig.

The exhibition is described as ‘a fragmented diary through search-posters for lost cats, dogs and other loved ones’. The room was filled with these posters that Christian S. has collected for years and complemented with reports of the correspondance that S. had with the posters’ authors.
