Daniel Cherbuin
Was born in 1971 in Zofingen, Switzerland. He lives and works between Zürich, Switzerland, and Miami, USA. For umpteen years Daniel Cherbuin has been staging the intersection of alternative art spaces and underground parties with his video installations, that brought him to Art Galleries and Exhibitions. His oeuvres impress with highly innovative montages, idiosyncratic alliances of images, as well as an anarchic tenor: with irony, and pastiche Cherbuin is mocking the blasé in commerce and culture and smoothes the sublimes and ponderous of the art system away. Cherbuin has been converting music into clips and visuals in ingenious ways for numerous bands, namely Yello and Division Kent. Various collaborations with Thomas Haemmerli, for art and experimental films and even one cine-film. Originally Cherbuin learned audio-video electronics ab initio. At the beginnings of commercial television he was the creative force of Sputnik-TV, an innovative and experimental channel emerging from Zurich's underground techno scene.

Any advice for creative people who want to become a participants at Open Call First Date?
❕My advice is to look at the topic more broadly. The first date is not necessarily about two people who have agreed to meet and go to a restaurant or cinema. The heroes of your frame can be people for whom everything did not go as smoothly as they wanted. Or it could be a meeting of a person with the dream of his whole life. Or you can even abstract and make the center of the composition not people, but objects. Do not limit yourself in anything, write your own stories, without thinking about how the audience will understand them. By the way, viewers always interpret everything they see in their own way and not always the way the author intended.
