Based on the concept of Cooperative Aesthetics, developed by Univ.-Prof. Dr. Gerhard Funk, students of Time-based and Interactive Media Art at the University of Arts and Design Linz and Prof. Funk have created 30 artworks for the Deep Space of the Ars Electronica Center since 2015. These projects will now be presented weekly until July 2021 in the course of an Ars Electronica Home Delivery series. Using the lasertracking system of the Deep Space the artworks enable visitors to have a collective, audiovisual, aesthetic experience.
Ball Bounce by Gerhard Funk is a tricky multiuser game in which participants must cooperate to get one or more balls into the goal. Together they must shape the line on which the ball moves physically correctly and follows gravity. There are eight modes with increasing difficulty like moving goals or obstacles.
