Institut fuer Feinmotorik (IFF) is an artists' group working in different formats and media, although the main activity is acoustic-art/music. IFF is located in Bad Sackingen, Berlin, Cologne, and Karlsruhe, Germany. The group was founded in 1997 for a club event in Basel, Switzerland at Brisant kiosk/club. IFF produces different outputs (photography, video, music, drawing, computer-programming, printed matters etc.), organizes artistic/cultural events, does lectures and workshops and publishes artistic goods such as music records, books etc. IFF got some reputation for their acoustic work with a reductionist set-up called octogrammoticum: 8 turntables, 4 DJ mixers + end-mixer, which is served by the group members. Anything (except records) which somehow fits between turntables and pick-up cartridges (household-rubber bands, paper-stickers, rubber gums, handicraft-tools + various tinker-trivias) may be played.
