„Geschmack des Salzes, Geschmack des Meeres, ein leicht bitterer Geschmack von etwas Verlorenem, von Dingen, zurückgelassen in einer anderen Welt, anders als hier.“ – Gino Paoli
1963 schrieb Gino Paoli den Sommerhit „Sapore die sale“, in dem er einen typischen Tag am Strand besingt. Er beschrieb diesen als: „… die momentane Abwesenheit gefestigter Gepflogenheiten“. „Høliday“ geht von einem Archivbild des Meeres aus. Dieses wird mit dem Photo eines Smartphones kombiniert, abgebildet auf dessen Screen findet sich die vertraute Textur eines weltbekannten Unternehmens.

‘Pillow Talk – Technology for Awkward Questions’ are four devices to encourage conversations about Sex Education.
We are very bad at talking about sex, so bad that we rather google our most intimate private questions and concerns than talk to family and friends. Technology and sex are already incredibly connected. Sex education is important because it is fundamentally about how we treat each other in the most vulnerable situations. We are not done learning about sex when we reach adulthood.
The first device is symbolising consent: It is how everything starts. Every flirty ...

We visit the two Danube wetlands honey beekeepers Petra and Theresa Dirtl in the “Grüner Daumen” community garden in the Lobau, and afterwards take a stroll into the Donau-Auen National Park. Examining the beehive, we learn interesting and curious things about the bees. The hike is open ended – what will we encounter in the riparian forest?

We are CLAIMING SPACE, opening up, creating new space, giving and projecting space, observing space. The changes and events of the past few months have led to many questions about public, private, and university-held space: Are there places that are not geared towards consumption, functionality, transfer, etc.? Are there places only for “being”? Also: Is a university building a public space? We want a discourse with the public. To do so, we use the “new open space” in front of the old PSK building. A new space for the university, a “competence center for art and science” is being ...

Fostering Ecotones incorporates ecologic thinking in the process of design to investigate a holistic view on infrastructure systems, exploring how a relational model of infrastructural agency and ecological relationships could foster new spatial and social arrangements in the urban fabric. It illustrates how the design of a more permeable urban habitat could collaborate to a less segregated city that provides opportunities for healthier socio-ecological relationships.

The project proposes the integration of renewable energy production into cities with coal mining history in Europe, which is simultaneously providing spaces for communities. Due to Europe‘s agreement to be carbon free in 2050, cities of former coal mining will not only experience structural and infrastructural transition concerning their energy supply and labor landscape. Also, strong bonds of communities formed by the former coal industries will undergo a major shift.

Viel zu eng und unbequem ist es in diesem kleinen Raum, die vielen Körper fangen an zu schwitzen unter dem grellen Rampenlicht, das ausladende Objektiv einer der Kameras zoomt an eine Schweißperle heran, die langsam über eine Stirn in Richtung Nasenspitze rollt.

In Lawrence Webb’s book The Cinema of the Urban Crisis, architect Michael Sorkin cites the cadavre exquis, a collaborative drawing game invented by the Surrealists, as the perfect representation of urban space – “the city: our greatest, most out of control collective artefact”. To that effect, Aldo Rossi also points to the psychological experiences of a collective universe that constitute the basis of cities. Like cinema, perhaps, the city is seen as a formal expression of the relationship between individual and collective consciousness; both structure and ruin, the city is a manifestation of collective social production.

During the lockdown, students of the department of applied photography and time-based media developed a photographic alphabet. The limited working space was examined, deciphered, manipulated and translated into (photographic) letters and numbers.
The result is a common pictorial script that challenges the contemplation of the everyday but also refers to the individual situations in isolation.
The relationship between motif, text and semiotic, visual language and typeface are experimentally shifted by the actual use as a writing tool – TYPE A PHOTO EDITORIAL.

The installation based on Euripides Bakchen circles the relationship of a post-modern, eurocentric image of man as opposed to nature, which are made visible through the worldly ruler Pentheus and the god Dionysus in the piece. The installation connects a 2462 year old text to contemporary society.

Inspiriert von Donna Haraways Science-Fiction-Erzählung über das Chthuluzän. Haraway plädiert darin dafür, das Vergangene unnachgiebig zu befragen und das daraus erworbene Wissen für die Zukunft anzuwenden. In dieser Arbeit wird der Westernfilm befragt. Eine dieser starken Erzählungen aus der Vergangenheit, durch die historische Ereignisse verklärt wurden.

During the recent pandemic, many business premises had to be closed temporarily or entirely.

Porsch’s posters are characterised by their multilayered fusion of symbols, jokes, and codes. With the classic toolkit of copying, he develops a language of the digital. He condenses a traffic artery in the metropolis, with its logos from grocery stores and sports betting to gas stations and workshops, into a heterotopia of capitalised symbols.

„Kroax“ ist ein lautmalerischer Begriff aus dem luxemburgischen Sprachgebrauch und steht für den Ausruf der Krähe. In einem handgefertigten Notizbuch mit experimenteller Tagebuchführung verschmelzen auf verschiedensten Materialitäten symbolhafte Sprache und harsche Gestik miteinander. Das Gekrächze wird somit zum Gekrakel, dessen Inhalt sowohl Dokumentation als auch Anweisung zur Transkription der mediumabhängigen Inszenierungsform darstellt.

As the current situation demands that we isolate ourselves, stay at home and do not share public space, we create digital spaces via communication technologies to connect and communicate. In this context, virtual spaces are replacements of public spaces. They are intersections of our private surroundings, allowing the creation of alternative modes of gathering and possible forms of publicness within the privateness. Private Dots and Public Clouds reflects on these spatial constellations.

Is our brain an efficient computer or do the foundations of life and consciousness elude any algorithmic description? Enactivism is a new paradigm in the cognitive sciences that thinks cognition beyond the boundaries of an information processor. Neurobiologist Francisco Varela, psychologist Eleanor Rosch and philosopher Evan Thompson laid the foundation for this radical change of perspective in 1991, thereby changing the relationship between brain and consciousness. In my lecture, I give an introduction to the basics of enactivism and show ...

With the recent move towards online festivals and exhibitions, and to avoid exclusively transferring artistic statements to virtual spaces, we decided to select a physical space as a communicative interface for a collaborative art project titled 2 m(inutes) distance. A planned sequence of interventions, performances, and media presentations in the Altes Kino of the Sandleitenhof complex will result in a collective installation. The work is a plea for the preservation of artistic polyphony. In this sense, 2 m(inutes) distance is an experimental set-up to answer the question of how to deal with the restrictions imposed on us.

Thomas Glänzel’s Ghost Frames (2018) serves as a image template for the film coating on a display window of a Biedermeier house. The departure point for this photographic work is splicing tape fragments from an old 16 mm film. The tape chips, on which parts of the image information remained stuck in the glue, were placed on glass slides, sealed, and enlarged as negative prints. They exhibit grey shades, rips, and fraying. Figurative shapes only become perceptible when viewed from the distance.

The designating transmediality allows for artistic media to be read as a diverse, open and interwoven matter. This complex under- standing of media makes multiple options available for dealing with materiality. Furthermore we decline the rigorous differenti- ation between the visual art genres but encourage a transdisci- plinary approach and the exchange with science, technology and philosophy. Trying new ways to create work and learning through experimentation is an essential part of art-making as we see it.

The Alexandria Museum investigates how repatriated Egyptian items can be exhibited in their country of origin, as originals or as reproductions using 3D scanning technologies. The circulation and form of the museum respond directly to the artifacts by using scenographic principles of approaches, views and framing, movement and layering. In doing so, the presence of the original and replicated repatriated artifacts in Alexandria is amplified, the visitor is engaged in a physical and visual interaction with the exhibition pieces and the collection is opened up to the public eye.

The artistic concepts and their development are based on an iterative process, which aims to optimise the relationships of the nodes with the network and balance the flow of data. The works receive, transform, and convey data.

Eating is an everyday cultural act that follows sustainable values. Every change in eating behavior affects the ecosystem and socio-economic processes. Every bite is a political act. What we eat, when and why can trigger unworthy working conditions in Spain, soil erosion in Central Africa or burning Amazonian areas. The question of daily eating has nothing to do with diets or recipes but with CO2 emissions ...

Comments on a postdigital art education and their bodies
In the context of the philosophy of education, the idea that humans don’t just learn with their heads but also with their bodies is a longstanding deliberation, which has often been used as an argument in various historical situations. In an almost reflexive manner, it is set in opposition to learning with and in the digital realm – also and especially when it has to do with art and its mediation.
That the body plays a role in education can ...

Alien Life investigates novel approaches and practices that will lead to a new understanding of the relationships between people, machines, and living matter. All matter is part of the same world and forms an inseparable whole. Viewed from different perspectives, ideas about communication between people, their technologized environment, and living matter are discussed and linked to discourses about seemingly unrelated worlds.

As a result of the arrangements introduced to tackle Covid-19, some of us are experiencing social distancing, distance learning, separation and isolation in a number of environments, such as the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. At first glance, it might seem that one can talk about a “we”, “us”, even a collective experience, or go even further and think of a global collective. Drawing on my experience as a lecturer at the University of Applied Arts, however, I do not entirely agree with this viewpoint. At a time of drastic restrictions to individual freedom of movement in public ...

Jesus, Aliens! I think is a film project by Sophie Bösker and Lorenz Zenleser. It is telling Sophie’s own, personal story that she experienced during the last three months. It is the story of a daughter coming home to her parents’ house during the unsettling times of the “corona-crisis” and how she tries to realize a science-fiction-movie within their home. It is about the process and the struggles that come with an unexpected change of concept. But over all, it is about familiy, about relationships and the roles each familiy member is playing.

Das autofreie Wien im Jahr 2120. China, eine 95-jährige zugezogene Wienerin, die das Aussterben des Autos in den grünen 20er Jahren nur aus fragmentierten Erzählungen ihrer Eltern miterlebte, erzählt in Zeit zu gehen von ihren persönlichen Erinnerungen. Ihre verstorbene Frau, Reni, um einiges älter, war als energische Journalistin und Klima-Aktivistin maßgeblich am Aussterben der Spezies Auto beteiligt. Auch mithilfe des Wissens, das sie durch ihre Frau erlangt hat und der nebulösen Machenschaften ihrer Eltern, wagt China ihren ersten eigenen Rekonstruktionsversuch der ausgestorbenen Spezies.

In Petronell-Carnuntum, Niederösterreich, wurde 1957 eine fragmentarisch erhaltene römische, gerippte Silberschale als Teil eines Silbergeschirrensemble entdeckt. Von diesem Ensemble getrennt, gelangte die gerippte Schale zunächst in Privatbesitz, bis sie 1984 das Kunsthistorische Museum Wien erwarb. Die drei größten Fragmente, welche die Form der Schale wiedergeben, waren zum Zeitpunkt des Ankaufs bereits auf einer Stützkonstruktion aus Eisen montiert. Im Fokus der Konservierung und Restaurierung steht das Objekt vor weiterem Substanzverlust zu bewahren, sowie das ästhetische Erscheinungsbild und die Lesbarkeit der Schale wiederherzustellen. Durch eine umfassende Literaturrecherche und anhand von Vergleichsbeispielen werden Datierung und Funktion geklärt und ...

The path from unconscious to consciousness
Live Running Practice, 17. 06. 2020, 10:00 – 11:30
Hernals. Himmelmutterweg. Grünbeckweg. 1170. Vienna, Austria
When the decision is taken by a person, it is the conscious action, which brings new possibilities to shift from unconscious thoughts and fears to the progressive process. The action of ‘Running’ is not only the movement from place A to place B rather it also involves dynamic mental changes through the thinking process.
This thesis directs the viewer’s attention to the duality and also the relative relationship between two actions, ‘Running’ and ‘Sitting’.

Temporary Territories is a set of architectural interventions plugging into precarious built fabrics to investigate the role of architecture in infrastructure making.
It focuses on providing low tech strategies to the marginalised populations living on sites of exclusion and neglect. Stepping away from the assumption that low tech and vernacular share the same technologies and aesthetics, but aiming at developing a set of context-based tools.
As such the project questions the elegant solutions privileged in infrastructure making, and engages with the aesthetics of infrastructural prosthetics and messy solutions to artificially make damaged environments liveable and ...

The thesis explores the manifold, elusive definitions of “the curatorial,” as well as the opportunities curatorial research holds within the realm of questioning historical narratives and challenging public conceptions through concepts withdrawing from certainty, methods of broad-based participation, as well as long-term research projects.
From the vantage point of the exhibition as a site for carrying out research, the thesis reflects on the curatorial as a space beyond the tension between theory and practice, and emphasises additional juxtapositions at play: i.a. the tension between theory and intuition, “astra and monstra,” “the inexhaustible and unfathomable.” My findings ...

The website wywnh.stream shows three simultaneous video streams of a transparent, cylindrical water container in which a jellyfish lives. Whoever visits this website causes an electronic valve at the bottom of the water tank to briefly open. The more viewers who watch the jellyfish, and the longer they do it, the more water is drained away. As such, these gawkers inevitably contribute to the animal’s death.

Reproductive labour is understood as the total of unrecognized and often uncompensated work in a capitalist system that, on a daily basis, cares for and maintains others. Reproductive labour or „care work“ is associated with the upbringing of children, the care for elders, for people who are not able to work, self-care, healthcare, housework and sex work. The division between productive and „unproductive work“ goes back to the economist Adam Smith and was criticized by the international feminist movement „Wages for Housework“ in the Seventies that demanded payment for the unwaged domestic work mostly performed by women in the ...

In our eyes, the current global challenges in connection with the pandemic call for a paradigm change – now more than ever, in the architectural practice and in architectural thinking. In light of the structural deficits in urban areas, migration fluxes, technological shifts, precarious living situations, and spatial exclusion, a redefinition of the present-day demands seems inevitable. Our discipline needs to once again be embedded in the life worlds of the people in order to better approximate social problems and realities.
