OPEN SOURCE SATELLITE

After three years of research and one year of experience as a satellite engineer, Hojun Song has found that it is possible to launch and operate a personal satellite.
VIDEO DRESSES

The Video dresses are created by 15000 LEDs. One dress displays hazy silhouettes of sharks in the sea whilst the other shows a time-lapse sequence of a rose blooming
MY SECRET HEART

My Secret Heart is a new commission by Streetwise Opera of an installation written by electronic composer Mira Calix, video artists Flat-e and sound designer Dave Sheppard



A PARALLEL IMAGE

A Parallel Image is an electronic camera obscura, an installation by Gebhard Sengmüller, in collaboration with Franz Büchinger, supported by Fels-Multiprint. This media-archaeological, interactive sculpture is based on the fictive assumption that the currently still valid principle of electronically transmitting moving images, namely by breaking them down into single images and image lines, was never discovered. Gebhard Sengmüller is an artist working in the field of media technology. Since 1992, he has been developing projects and installations focussing on the history of electronic media


BLINKS & BUTTONS

Between Blinks & Buttons is a twofold thesis project about the camera as a networked object. Through making their photos public on the Internet, individuals create traces of themselves.In addition to their value as a memory, each image contains a multitude of information about the context of its creation.



SENSITIVE TO PLEASURE

Sensitive to Pleasure is a work by Sonia Cillari at the end of an art-residency at Nimk about conflict, an intimate piece in which the artist emphasizes her controversial relationship with her own work in front of the public. Cillari stands outside the door of a dark Ambisonic cube, where she grants entry to only one visitor at a time.




THE ATTENBOROUGH DESIGN GROUP

The Attenborough Design Group investigates the use of animal behaviours to defend emerging technologies. These products include the Gesundheit Radio, which sneezes periodically to expel potentially damaging dust, Floppy Legs, a portable floppy disk drive which stands up if it detects liquid nearby, and the AntiTouch Lamp, which sways away from you if get too close to its bulb.


PLAYAROUND WORKSHOP

Playaround workshop DIWO culture (09-13 August): each module is a smaller circle of the bigger circle of workshop, each has it unique culture, specific motifs and potential of reconnecting to other circle. From Do-It-Yourself to Do-It-With-Others; digital culture & art offer potentials to connect shared interests.

FINE COLLECTION OF CURIOUS SOUND OBJECTS

The arrangement of this fine collection of curious sound objects, includes six exceptional exhibits from the world of sounds and acoustics. At first sight looking trivial, each object incorporates a very unique ability. §A project by Georg Reil and Kathy Scheuring, developed at University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt.


DIGITAL CREATURES

Digital Creatures is a dispersed net-artwork/digital poem built from 40 sections, each an interactive, multimedia artwork. What makes this project unique and exciting is that each interlinked section is hosted on a different website, with the theme / look / aesthetic / poetics of that section.




MYLICON/EN: SOLD DOWN THE RIVER

We would like to talk about social issue, we would like to say something about negative externalities, about Moral hazard, social costs and about market failure.
But there are no words left, all has gone, we have been sold down the river. In few years, driving suv and drinking cola, smiling to the world corporations and conomists have sold down the river landscape and people, the whole planet. You see who's in charge in many democratic nations? Do you have words to explain to yourself what is modern democracy? The new stunning Audiovisual Art work, and future live cinema set by Italian experimental duo Mylicon/en.

2010 01SJ BIENNIAL
SAN JOSE': 16 - 19 SEPTEMBER 2010

The 2010 01SJ Biennial is predicated on the notion that as artists, designers, engineers, architects, marketers, corporations and citizens we have the tools to (re)build the world, conceptually and actually, virtually and physically, poorly and better, aesthetically and pragmatically, in both large and small ways. 01SJ is about how powerful ideas and innovative individuals from around the world can make a difference and come together to build a unique and distributed city-wide platform for creative solutions and public engagement. Under the theme “Build Your Own World,” ZER01, in collaboration with dozens of partners, will present over the course of 4 days, from September 16-19, hundreds of artworks, performances, events, and artist talks, which not only imagine the future of the world) but begin to build it.
