Triaina: Model A
TOHOKUSHINSHA FILM CORPORATION x AnotherFarm (JP)
Triaina is an ongoing large-scale art project that utilizes design and technology to create sustainable ecosystems that integrate man-made forms with nature. A sculpture made from concrete and α-amino acids is placed on the seabed and acts as a cultural artifact as well as a home to marine life, promoting an ecosystem that is a symbiosis between man and nature.

The Form of Digital Nature
Yoichi Ochiai (JP)
In Digital Nature, our current norms of physical and recognition abilities are transcended. Extremely enhanced computation and resolution abilities become part of daily life. The humanity of the future may live in Digital Nature, where the very concepts of nature, artificial objects, gravity and time are overturned.

LightWing II
Uwe Rieger (DE/NZ), Yinan Liu (NZ), arc/sec Lab (NZ)
The interactive installation LightWing II creates a mysterious sensation of tactile data. It allows the visitor to navigate through holographic spaces and to explore responsive narratives.

Organic Primitive Bioplastics
Primitive Labs Biodesign (US)
Organic Primitive Bioplastics challenges endless data accumulation and memory by posing an ephemeral paradigm for interacting with objects, driven by organic intelligences. Using a library of biomaterials to give objects a “voice” to communicate, everyday things are transformed into ephemeral information displays that change color, odor, and form in response to fluids.

Anti Conductor
Ryo Kishi (JP)
Anti Conductor embraces the beauty of struggles. In our society, individuals tend to go with the flow of their environment. It’s human nature because it’s easier to survive. But it’s also monotonous and boring. If no one tries to go against the flow, nothing is going to change. The image of an individual struggling in the flow is full of power and energy, even if their efforts might not pay off.
