THE WILD STATE: State of Intimacy
Fabrizio Lamoncha Martinez (ES)
Diese einzigartige Ausstellung spiegelt in vielerlei Hinsicht die Vielfalt der internationalen Studierendengruppe von Interface Cultures wider. Viele der Kunst- und Technologieprojekte der Studierenden scheinen uns zu ermutigen, über neue kollektive Werte nachzudenken.

THE WILD STATE: Sound Campus
Enrique Tomás (ES)
Sound Campus ist ein neues Programm, das speziell darauf ausgerichtet ist, den Stand der experimentellen Klangpraktiken an Universitäten und Forschungszentren zu untersuchen. Es eröffnet Studierenden und ForscherInnen die Möglichkeit, dem großen Publikum des Ars Electronica Festivals neue Formen des Verständnisses von Klangkunst vorzustellen. Das diesjährige Programm, das von Enrique Tomás kuratiert wird, präsentiert unbehagliche Klangperformances, die im Angesicht einer kritischen Gegenwart nachklingen. Aufdringliche Musik, die uns trotz der Abriegelung berührt.

The Internet Yami-Ichi
Sofia Braga (IT), IDPW (JP)
Shut down your computer and join the third edition of The Internet Yami-Ichi in Linz! The Internet Yami-Ichi derives from the Japanese for "Internet Black Market," but also for "sickness" and "addiction." It is a flea market where people consumed by the Internet can share and buy Internet-related things in real life.

Agora Digitalis
Agora Digitalis is the Interface Cultures’ meeting point during the 2020 Campus Exhibition. The general idea behind it is to create an informal setting where students, (future) makers and future students can meet and become acquainted with Interface Cultures. Agora Digitalis is a physical and virtual place where everyone should be able to share and express their ideas

Biocomputer Rhythms
Interdisciplinary Centre for Computer Music Research (ICCMR), University of Plymouth (UK), Eduardo Reck Miranda (BR/UK)
Biocomputer Rhythms is a piece for prepared piano and percussion. It is a musical duet between a pianist and an intelligent interactive biocomputer. The biocomputer listens to the piano and produces musical responses during the performance. The responses are played on percussion instruments and on the piano by the pianist. The piano is prepared with electromagnetic actuators positioned inside the instrument to vibrate its strings. Electromagnetic actuators are also used to vibrate percussion instruments.

CyberBallet
CyberRäuber (DE)
CyberBallet is a live performance in cyberspace: What does it mean to have a body, to move in space? Can AI truly grasp the basics of the human experience if it lacks a body?
