Huge data sculptures on houses in public places, walk-through projections and archives – when it comes to uniting light, data and architecture, Refik Anadol is quickly talked about. From Blade Runner to Artificial Intelligence, from remembering to learning to dreaming, the Istanbul Turkey-born media artist talks in his keynote about people, films and thoughts that have particularly influenced him in his professional career and presents some of his projects.
The keynote was part of the Expanded Animation Symposium 2021 (“Tectonic Shift”) organized by the Hagenberg Campus of the Upper Austria University of Applied Sciences and Ars Electronica and held as part of the Ars Electronica Festival 2021.
