The permanent sound installation "Music for Elevators" was created in 2020 together with the Finnish artist Jimi Tenor. The concept behind the "Music for Elevators" project is to transform the ride on the Schlossberg lift in Graz into a sound journey with a specially interpreted version of lift music. Since 2020, Jimi Tenor, Dorian Concept and Caterina Barbieri have collaborated on the project.
Brian Eno is considered the founder of ambient music. The internationally renowned producer, visual artist, and activist gained international prominence in the early 1970s as a founding member of the British band Roxy Music. His visionary productions include albums with Talking Heads, Devo, U2, Laurie Anderson and Coldplay, while his long list of collaborations includes recordings with David Bowie, David Byrne, Grace Jones, Karl Hyde, James Blake and many others.
