From 2016 to 2019, he was artistic director of the soloist ensemble Kaleidoskop in Berlin. In this role, he experimented with innovative performance forms of music from the 15th century onwards on historical, modern and electronic instruments.

Kanitz’s stage designs are ephemeral abstractions of light and sound, which he creates for theatres, museums, galleries and special architectural spaces, such as the Seoul National Theatre, the Albertinum Dresden and the KINDL Centre for Contemporary Art. Most recently, he staged his piece Eden II for an actor and electronic music in Berlin and Eden I for 3 dancers, organ pipers, drummers, cellists, lutenists and an actor on the Berlin motorway bridge of the ICC, a discarded public bus and in the Tegeler Fliess marshland. His latest work is for electronic music with texts by Georg Heym, it was created in collaboration with the director Sebastian Blasius and was shown at the Museum unter Tage in Bochum.
