ABC-Coding (Activity Based Coding)
Students of the “Grune Familie” (Green family) elementary school class, Europaschule Linz
The children of Europaschule Linz begin working with various robots in lessons and gaining first insights into coding as early as preschool. Through this, they expand their knowledge base and learn about how these devices are operated.
In Reactio Veritas
Felix Strobl, Barbara Gregori, Claudio Reiter (AT)
In Reactio Veritas is set to challenge the concept of confrontation by generating algorithmic works of art through electro-encephalography, which does not merely analyze the dispute, but should inspire us to see the beauty and communality behind the conflict.
OpenDrone
Thomas Brych, Michael Franz Hitzker, Tim-Matthias Klecka, Markus Kurzmann (AT)
OpenDrone is an open source drone, meaning that anyone can download the 3D printing data and software for free from GitHub and then assemble the device.
BE WIRED
Judith Auer, Claudia Cruceru, Raphaela Danner, Maria-Anna Eckerstorfer, Gerda Martinez Lopez, Adina Socoliuc (AT)
Students of drawing at Art University Linz will collaborate with visitors to the Festival to make an interactive wire sculpture.
Rake - minimize your information
Tessa Aichelburg, Luis Hofmeister, Lukas Kaufmann, Paul Schreiber (AT)
In this project, every piece of information is analyzed by an algorithm and sorted according to its relevance for the average reader. The most superfluous messages are weeded out, printed out, and then shredded.
Trans*Plant: May the Chlorophyll be with/in you
Quimera Rosa (ES/AR/FR)
March 2016: Start of Trans*Plant project, which engages in human>plant hybridizations. December 2017: First chlorophyll IV injection @ Kapelica Gallery. March 2036: The annual Earth resources are exhausted > global Internet final shutdown. December 2037: A bio-hacker community connects a VPN to Mycorrhiza network. This mixed-media installation aims to present the work behind Trans*Plant, as well as produce a speculative fiction. A piece where leftovers from the past and the future get entangled.
Polytronics
Hannes Möseneder (AT), Agnes Hofstätter (AT), Steffanie Painsith (AT), María José Molina (CO)
The global plastics manufacturer Greiner showcases 5 future mockups, which in combination with printed electronics, have the potential to sense and act according to inputs gathered from our daily-life environments.
Heavy Requiem – Buddhist Chant: Shomyo + Electronics
Keiichiro Shibuya (JP), Eizen Fujiwara (JP), Justine Emard (FR)
This will be a unique collaborative performance of integrated electronic and traditional Buddhist music.
Interactions II
Martina Claussen (DE)
Voice and sound recordings, together with sound objects, weave a “sound carpet” which provides the basis for an electroacoustic journey. These textures act as a sort of humus for voices, from which they repeatedly emerge in fragmented form. Associations of the most diverse kinds and unexpected connections are evoked.
GRAND JEU 2
Wolfgang Mitterer (AT)
Electronics are operated live and represent a second organ with multiple possibilities when coupled with a keyboard and controllers. This results in a massive expansion of sound in every direction, from Baroque to Bruckner, and beyond.
