Communication released in 2003, is the first solo album of Karl Bartos, featuring such songs as "I'm the Message", "The Camera" and "Life". Some editions of the CD comes in a special Burgopak [1] -case, which is unusual in that the CD tray and booklet both emerge sliding out from opposite sides of the case and must be opened together.
According to Karl Bartos, the album is a concept album about electronic media:
»Communication« is about the way images shape our view of the world and how electronic media is going to change the contents of our culture"
The album was re-released on March 25, 2016 on CD and Vinyl, including remastered tracks and the bonus song "Camera Obscura".
The limited edition was issued as CD Extra and contains the video clip for "I'm the Message" as well as a download link for two remixes of the song by Felix Da Housecat and Orbital.
All tracks written by Karl Bartos, except where noted.
