Sebastian Meissner

For the opening of the 2010 New York edition of the Unsound Festival Meissner performed with Polish classical music ensemble Kwartludium at the David Rubenstein Atrium of the Lincoln Center.

[3] Under the name Solid State Transmitters they played selected compositions from the catalogue of SST Records – a music label formed in 1978 by Black Flag member Greg Ginn.

[4] An Artforum reviewer wrote about this concert the following: What Meissner and Kwartludium were about to attempt was nothing less than a new-music interpretation of some minor classics from the cult American hardcore and alternative-rock label.

Accompanying each piece with a slow-dissolving projection of some of the band's record-cover illustrations (Raymond Pettibon's designs for Black Flag being the most familiar to an art-world viewer), they gave each one a different, radical, and surprisingly effective spin.

The topics ranged from urban explorations in Detroit,[7][8] portraying native Hawaiian protesters at Mauna Kea in Hawaii[9] and capturing Voodoo rituals in New Orleans.
