          MACHFELD (Michael 
          Mastrototaro & Sabine 
          Maier) was founded 1999 in Vienna. Based on the identically 
          named cyber-novel, 
          they developed an art-label with the focal points: web-art, short- and 
          experimental films, streaming-projects, interactive installations as 
          well as works for the public space.
          Projects, exhibitions and installations / screenings in Africa, Europe, Central-America, North-America
          and in the USA. Since 2004 MACHFELD runs an interdisciplinary Medialab 
          in Vienna.
