data.tron
Ryoji Ikeda (JP)
How many points are there in a line? What is the number of numbers? How can we verify that the random is random? data.tron is part of the datamatics project, a series of experiments that explore such questions both physically and mathematically. Visitors will experience the vast universe of data in the infinite between 0 and 1. data.tron is an audiovisual installation in which each single pixel of visual image is strictly calculated by mathematical principle, composed of a combination of pure mathematics and the vast sea of data present in the world. These images are projected onto a large screen, heightening and intensifying the visitor’s perception and total immersion in the work.
Meandering River
onformative (DE), kling klang klong (DE)
Meandering River is an audiovisual art installation comprised of real-time visuals and music composed by an A.I. through machine learning. The piece reinterprets the shifting behavior of rivers in the landscape, regarded from a bird’s eye view. Minor changes of riverbeds are not visible for the bare eye, as they are gradually happening over time. Spanning over multiple screens Meandering River visualizes these altering landscapes and makes the changes visible. It leaves the observer with a unique perception of time.

Knotting the Memory // Encoding the Khipu_
Patricia Cadavid H. (CO)
This performance wants to pay homage to the Khipu, reusing it as an instrument for interaction and generation of experimental live sound and video. The artist will be a contemporary *khipukamayuq* (Khipu knotter) who seeks to encode the interrupted legacy of this ancestral practice through the knots. With each knot made, an audiovisual composition is constructed that yearns to vindicate the memory and indigenous resistance of the native peoples of the Andes. Triality is an unconventional exploration of VR technologies that challenges the limits of our perception.
Alive painting for Bruckner Orchestra
Akiko Nakayama (JP)
Alive painting is a live performance with a dynamic, changing picture. We can see the beauty of blending paints and feel the philosophical meanings of colors, shapes and movement. The entire body feels the joy and dynamics of music created by the Bruckner Orchestra, and the audio-visual element brings everyone together in wonder.
Beholder
United Visual Artists (UK)
Beholder continues UVA’s investigations into time perception and the relativity of our experiences. It centers around the wonder of everyday phenomena as seen through autistic perspectives, inviting us to re-evaluate our perception of beauty.

Jenna Sutela (FI)
The project uses an AI as a medium to channel messages from Bacillus subtilis nattō, an extremophilic, probiotic bacterium and a possible Martian.
Quantum Logos
Mark Chavez (US), Ina Conradi (SG), Tate Chavez (US), Bianka Hofmann (DE), Bob Kastner (AU)
In an immersive reactive audio-visual experience, Quantum Logos uses cultural archetypes to explore natural phenomena focusing on the basics of quantum theory. We attempt to utilize aspects of intuitive, assumptive cultural models to describe the nature of existence as confirmed through scientific observation. The media artists Mark Chavez and Ina Conradi, sci-art producer and developer Bianka Hofmann and science communicator Bob Kastner form the collective Quantum Travelers

A Real-Time Generative Installation Piano Performance
NOLANDX
Ulf Langheinrich (DE)
*NOLANDX* is an audiovisual composition. The aesthetic nucleus of the work are the image planes, algorithmically generated noise and lines as well as recordings of sea waves. This referential source material is transformed by slit-scan and other interventions on the time level. The result is a pulsating, stereoscopically black and white space: immersion in the interworld.
