Highlights von Ars Electronica Japan

Life Ink
2022

Life Ink captures the life data of human bodies and brains by using sensory wearables that measure brain waves and body signals to create a new form of “ink”. In this way, the human body becomes a tool and means of expression that reflects us on a conscious and subconscious level, revealing aspects of ourselves that in turn inspire our creativity.

Dataspace
Global impacts of the Russian war on Ukraine

Dataspace proposes a „newspaper of the future“: Here, the Ars Electronica Futurelab and financial newspaper Nikkei’s Innovation Lab demonstrate, how art and journalism can help to listen carefully to facts and think deeply rather than just consuming and reacting to news. The first project focuses on the profound impact Russia’s war on Ukraine has all around the world now and in the future – inviting visitors into a sort of Zen garden of data, using the unique infrastructure of Deep Space 8K.
