ligeti zentrum

Located in the Hamburg district Harburg, the ligeti center is an
interdisciplinary translation center that bridges the arts, science,
technology, and health. Named after composer György Ligeti, who
had already envisioned a computer music lab in Hamburg in the
1970s, the name “ligeti” also serves as an acronym for
“Laboratories for Innovation and General-audience Edification
through the Translation of Ideas.”
Expanding Ligeti’s original vision, the ligeti center was established
in 2023 as a joint project of the Hamburg University of Music and
Drama, the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences, the Hamburg
University of Technology, and the University Medical Center
Hamburg-Eppendorf. It is funded through the federal and state
initiative “Innovative Hochschule.”
