Expert Tour: Guided tour to and into the Bruckner Organ - intelligence in design and technology, aesthetics and play
Stiftsorganist und – Kantor MMag. Klaus Sonnleitner CanReg (AT)

In Posse
Charlotte Jarvis (UK)
In Posse is an attempt to make the world’s first “female” semen using the artist’s own stem cells and material donated by multiple women, trans and gender-non-binary people. *In Posse* seeks to use science and art to undermine traditional notions of patriarchal power and to examine the meaning of gender now and in the future.
Sas (Social Adaptation System)
Lorène Ceccon (FR)
Today, good mood is the sine qua non condition of the terrifying “soul of the company,” and inconsistency of mood is deemed unacceptable. Starting from the digital shift of the French Labor Agency, Sas is an extravagant AI which establishes an impossible dialogue with the spectator. It underlines the absurdity of automation and the normalization of our feelings, but also our confidence in a computer system that does not know what it is calculating.
Long Night Talks. For Robert Adrian
Roberto Paci Dalò (IT)
Long Night Talks. For Robert Adrian is an 8-channel sound work dedicated to Robert Adrian X (1935-2015), a pioneer in art and telecommunications. For more than two decades, Adrian and Paci Dalò shared a close friendship, punctuated by long night talks on everything. In this piece, Roberto Paci Dalò worked with Adrian's voice, using it as his installation’s main material.
Platforms of Differential Growth
Studio Architecture III (CZ)
Design based on the algorithmic evolution of geometries represents machine production without need for human intervention. Such systems are capable of self-reproduction and self-reparation. The exhibited concrete elements are cut-outs of an endless structure.
Ether
Alain Barthélémy (FR)
Ether is a video presenting a technical device producing the 27 bones of the right hand. This 3D animation, which resembles a didactic document, seems to be promoting an innovative technology. There is certainly a rapprochement here with vanity. However, if the classic subject of art history is intended to present the irony of human existence trapped in a putrescible body, the vanity here would be that of a cyborg, a being who seems to be able to escape the ravages of time.
Sounds of the Earth
Ladislav Sutnar Faculty of Design and Art, University of West Bohemia
Examination of two different media with two different approaches by two students of the Ladislav Sutnar Faculty of Design and Art. Experimental videos exploring the fascinating world of hidden sounds and hidden visual elements such as video compression. And a comics wall inspired by mythology juxtaposed with contemporary CGI technologies.
