Constellations of the Earth
Hiroshi Suzuki (JP), Masato Ohki (JP)
Constellations of the Earth is a project that draws a new “constellation” on the ground using a satellite and a handmade radio wave reflector. The earth observation satellite Daichi 2 transmits radio waves and observes the ground’s surface by registering the reflected radio waves. By arranging a radio wave reflector on the ground, we efficiently reflect the radio wave of Daichi 2 on the ground and draw a “constellation” there.

Bill (BiCheng) Zhou (CN)
This artwork investigates the interactivity between living organisms and electronic sound / vision systems in the form of a social drama between three ant colonies. How could some simple units work together to show the complexity of ant behavior? How could electronic systems be integrated into living ant colonies? How could humans sense this complexity?

Portraits
Nobuyuki Osaki (JP)
Meditating about myself and others. About memory and perception. About the reality of all of us, living in the information society. And also meditating about politics, society and unpredictable disasters, about our future. The more I think about it, the more “this world” is flooded with vagueness and uncertainties.

Clams
Marco Barotti (DE/IT)
Clams is a kinetic sound installation that interacts with water quality. Real-time data is streamed by a sensor to shape audio frequencies into a live evolving soundscape which initiates the opening and closing movements of the sculptures. The Clams are made from recycled plastic and intended to raise awareness about water and plastic pollution.

Aerial-Biped
Azumi Maekawa (JP), Shunji Yamanaka (JP)
Aerial-Biped is a prototype for exploring a new experience with a physical biped robot. In this work using a quadrotor, we aim to separate the body shape and motion design.

Holy Hydra
Raumteiler Linz Kulturverein – Amanda Augustin (AT), Lorena Höllrigl (AT)
With contemporary dance performances, electronic music, interactive light installations and room-filling projections, the Urfahr parish church will be enchanted for two days and appear in a completely different light. The interplay of theory and practice will redefine sacred space and put it on an equal footing with urban space with a symposium of a special kind.
