There is one project that I was working on, but never found the time to tell you about: beyond vision. It is the largest project that I have done so far and it required so much time that I didn’t have any time left to write about it. 🙂 But in December it was finally […]

Zen Station is a game focused on relaxation. The player who is chilled the most wins. It is an installation on which two players can play a game. Goal of the game is to win by being as relaxed as possible. During the game, pulse and blood oxygen levels of the players are measured. The […]
Soon, I will have to write my master thesis. I’m still not absolutely sure if I should follow the chosen topic, so I’m posting the synopsis of my idea here to get some feedback. For example: Is the title too lurid? ^_^ Update: I chose to work on this topic, but I focused it on […]
Of the now from bednarz on Vimeo. The installation called Of the Now by Nick Bednarz gives wings to anyone who steps into the human outline in the center. If you move on, the wings disappear again. There isn’t much hi tech involved (apparently flash and a light barrier), but the idea is still enchanting. […]
Even interactive installations usually let their users stand around relatively motionless. I wonderful counter-example is Move, a kind of game which I saw at the Ars Electronica Festival 2007.

As soon as someone moves in front of the window, this visitor’s silhouette opens a view behind […]
An interactive installation by Daan Roosegaarde is called Dune 4.0. It consists of hundred of black fibers with LED-lighted tops, which react on the movements and sounds of passing visitors. It kinda reminds one of futuristic techno reed. 🙂 Daan Roosegaarde refers to his installation as an interactive landscape. I like this beautiful, slightly eerie […]
The Personal Orchestra is an installation which allows everyone to slip into the role of the conductor of the famous Vienna Philharmonic.
This installation by Pablo Valbuena is called Augmented Sculpture v1.0.

I have seen it in reality (at Ars Electronica 2007) and it was at least equally fascinating […]
Some time ago, I visited the Museu d´Art Contemporani de Barcelona (MACBA). Most exhibited artworks could only raise limited interest in me, but there was one exception: The music installation „Opera for a Small Room“ by Janett Cardiff and George Bures Miller. Unlinke our interactive music installation Dave, this installation is not interactive, but it […]
