Austrian Science Fund
In 2015, Ciciliani has been granted a PEEK project by the Austrian Science Fund with the title "GAPPP – Gamified Audiovisual Performance and Performance Practice" (AR 364). It is a still ongoing artistic research project, which investigates elements from computer games in the context of audiovisual composition and performance for their aesthetic potential. With this project Ciciliani deepens his interest in either overtly referencing game culture or integrating competitive and/or interactive elements from computer games. This theme can be found in his work since "Homo Ludens", composed in 2013 for the Ensemble des XX. Jahrhunderts.
