The interactive artworks under the title Cooperative Aesthetics were created at the Art University of Linz by students of Timebased and Interactive Media Arts and Interface Culture under the supervision of Univ.-Prof. Gerhard Funk and Sen.Artist Holunder Heiß. Using the lasertracking system of the Ars Electronica Deep Space they enable visitors to have a collective, audiovisual, aesthetic experience.
