Deep Space LIVE: The gut-brain axis – how the gut feels and thinks.
THU 15.4.2021 / 6:00 p.m.
With a total surface area of 300-400 m², the gut is not only by far the largest human organ, it also boasts a whopping 100 million neurons. It is becoming increasingly clear that the intestine is an organ that functions independently and communicates actively with the brain via bacteria, protozoa, hormones, neurons and messenger substances. Thursday, April 15, at Deep Space LIVE, neuroscientist Dr. Manuela Macedonia provides insight into the gut-brain connection and tells us that it is not only responsible for our sense of hunger, but also controls our mood and way of thinking.
Cooperative Aesthetics: Bar Trace / Gerhard Funk (AT)
SAT 17.04.2021 / 3:30 p.m.
Students of Time-Based and Interactive Media Art at the University of Art and Design Linz made use of the infrastructure of Deep Space 8K with its 16 by 9 meter wall and floor projections and laser tracking and developed various projects that they now present to the viewers of Ars Electronica Home Delivery under the motto Cooperative Aesthetics. When two participants in Gerhard Funk’s “Bar Trace” get close to each other, a color bar is drawn between them inside a circle. If the two move through the space together, three-dimensional traces are created.
