Zo[edit]

Since 2013 Fabrikant performs live together with Tarik Barri, from 2019 on as Zo. The duo use a self-developed system of pre-recorded AV loops, MIDI triggers and creative programming to create a virtual universe of sound and light in real time.[4] They perform at festivals in Europe like Sonár, TodaysArt[5] and tour through the US in 2022.
