Who was Ludwig Hirschfeld Mack?
Ludwig Hirschfeld Mack was a German/Australian artist.
His formative education was 1912-1914 at Debschitz art school in Munich, and 1922 at the Bauhaus-University Weimar where following Kurt Schwerdtfeger he further developed "Farblichtmusiken", a light and colour modulator which provided a visual translation of music; in fact an early form of multimedia. Hirschfeld Mack was joint participant, with the former Bauhaus master Gertrud Grunow, in the Second Congress of color-sound research in 1930 in Hamburg. Music and colour theory remained lifelong interests, informing his art production in a number of media, and it was the inspiration for his well-respected and influential teaching.
