“ Interventions in public architecture.
Private property. No parking signs. Walk. Don't walk. Shopping carts. COULD YOU TELL ME ONE THING TO REMEMBER. Trees. Ambulance. Dog shit. Sightseenig. A dead pigeon. Songs on cassette mixtapes. Perspectives. Representing avenues. Blocks. WE ARE OPEN. WE ARE CLOSED. Cars in a line. Redirections. Real estate. CONTROL SIGNS. Sales. Manifestos. NUMB BEATS FROM A CAR HI-FI. Approximating and moving away. DEAD BODIES. Move along there's nothing to see here. ”
 
BIOGRAPHY
Alexander Egger is a graphic designer, illustrator, concept developer, artist, writer, publisher of zines and musician. He is currently living and working in Vienna and sometimes elsewhere. Originating from an Italian border area he is always interested in limits, boundaries, open systems, cultural diversities and social interactions, conflicts, points of contact and friction. Likes to play guitar on a 15V amplifier in his living room watching at the same time TV without sound. Has plenty of useless knowledge about a lot of things nobody is interested in. Loves the phase between sleep and alertness when thougts and images come to one's mind from nowhere in a half aware accidental order compounding to strange combinations. Reads mostly 4-5 books at the same time and in a fast rotation. He is working in different media on a range of cultural and commercial projects for either very small and very big clients. He recently edited and published the zines series: Everybody get out of the pool. Now he is working among other things on a sound project experimenting with guitar cable manipulations and on a book about systematic perception of banal everyday reality and its communicative potential. His work has been published in international magazines and books and he had his work exposed in every continent except Antarctica in the last year.
A monograph with the title: Satellites Mistaken for Stars will be available at Rupa Publishing soon.
