Billy Roisz

Billy Roisz (1967) is a representative of the first “digital generation” of Austrian avant-garde cinema, working since 1999 in the field of video, installations, and audio-visual live performances. In 2011 she was honoured with the top prize for innovative cinema at the annual Festival of Austrian Film, the Diagonale, and in May 2013 the Austrian Film Museum hosted a retrospective of her work. Her ability to translate experimental music into visual imagery is particularly noteworthy, revealing tactics borrowed from minimal and conceptual art. She specialises in feedback video and video/sound interaction by using monitors, cameras, video mixing desks, a self-built video-synth, computer, a bass guitar and sometimes turntables for video and sound generating.
