It is exhibited in the British Museum titled as “The Museum’s Payment Watch”. link

THE ARTIST
The art of Lucas Scheybal was influenced by his stays in Paris and New York. His grandmother gave him a piano tuning key with which he tuned his first piano to play. This event set a cornerstone in his musical development. Video composing and real time performing complement the art unfolding in the chosen emotional worlds.
Each of the compositions were and are recorded and digitalised in hotels and studios between business meetings.
Here are some excerpts of his musical work: LAKS.com/video
