KIDS

Michael Frei (CH), Mario von Rickenbach (CH) / Playables

Where does the individual end and the group begin? Who is steering the crowd? What if it is heading in the wrong direction? In the interactive installation KIDS the visitors can control the behavior of the masses. The characters in a crowd behave much like matter: They attract and repel, lead and follow, grow and shrink, align and separate. They are purely defined by how they relate to one other – without giving them distinguishable features.

Undershoot, sensitive data: Cristiano

Cindy Coutant (FR)

In Undershoot, sensitive data: Cristiano, soccer star Cristian Ronaldo is the center of attention. Using text commands, Cindy Coutant interacts with a virtual Ronaldo. She remotely feeds the character (input), who then acts and transforms the submitted text (output). With this supposedly interactive project, the artist addresses the deeply human need to feel connected to someone with all our senses – be it real or just virtual.
