The Search Trilogy (search Lutz!, 2006 – SearchSongs, 2008 – searchSonata 181, 2011) performes algorithmically generated texts. The consistency of this trilogy is the usage of words that are typed in real time into search engines like Google & Co. These search terms are processed by algorithm for further use. In the first piece of work, searchLutz (2006), the search terms are processed into texts, in the second piece, searchSongs (2008), into sounds and melody, and in the latest piece, searchSonata 181, into phonetics as an acoustic bridge between text and sound.
