“Streams” by Stephan Wittwer received a Honorary Mention in the Digital Musics & Sound Art category of the Prix Ars Electronica 2002.
Eleven- years after „World of Strings“, „Streams“ is the second solo record from Stephan Wittwer. If „World of Strings“ was a live recording, or, if you wish, naked guitar record, then „Streams“ presents itself as multi-layered, complex but thoroughly listenable textures.
