ECODERMIS
Alejandra Marinaro (AR)
Ecodermis is an artwork that alludes to the skin as an organ connecting the human being with his environment, as it reflects the life, memory and sensations of each individual. At the same time, the skin is also what gives man part of his identity as a species and therefore allows him to coexist and differentiate himself from others.
Sunny Side Up
AATB – Andrea Anner (CH), Thibault Brevet (FR)
Sunny Side Up, a robotic sun developed by studio AATB, proposes a contemporary take on the archaic typology of the sundial. From sunrise to high noon and sunset, Sunny Side Up brings the movement of this celestial body close to the viewer. In the Anthropocene age, Sunny Side Up raises questions about our current disconnect from the planet and circadian rhythms.
Earthlink
Saša Spačal (SI)
Earthlink performs a planetary biogeochemical feedback loop catalyzed by microbial metabolism. Through the intimate process of breathing, humans are bound to the planet, immersed in an intra-flux of exchanges and negotiating relationships. What happens when the connections become technologically mediated? How will we breathe? Who or what will dispense the dose? Who will survive? How will we grieve?
Trans*Plant: connecting with mycorrhiza intranet [edible version]
Q.R*3 – Quimera Rosa (ES/AR/FR) + Roger Rabbitch (ES) + Rebeca Paz (ES)
“2024. March 8. The annual resources of the Earth have been exhausted. The equivalent of 4 planets is needed to satisfy human consumption. From a VPN of a second Internet, a group of biohackers, Q.R*3, tries to connect with the mycorrhiza, a network composed of a symbiosis between roots and fungi through which the terrestrial plant world communicates. The first members of this group died immediately under the effect of an unknown molecule. Nothing is known about the rest of the group.”

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.
