“Pfeiler” is an exhibition space in Brückenpassage/MQ. Quarter yearly, a work by a graduate of the Department Sculpture and Space / Hans Schabus is shown here. Christoph Giesch (*1991) graduated in the winter semester 2020/21, he lives and works in Zurich. Exhibition on view 29.6. to 20.9.2021
“Excavations” demonstrates Machine Learning moderated interactions between humans and living materials in an unorthodox laboratory setting. The first of three instalments of the FWF funded project Co-Corporeality juxtaposes animate and inanimate specimens, physical and virtual processes and living systems with coded algorithms. The laboratory becomes a responsive environment, hosting a new sensing interface, Machine Learning algorithms and selected bacteria and their performative behaviour. All of the virtual and physical specimens are essential in reconstructing technical structures, poetic methods and the construction of new forms of understanding between human ...
Smashed Japanese Imari, splinters of Chinese and European porcelain: The “Shard Room” at Loosdorf Castle, ruin of a private collection of East Asian and European porcelain, attests to the global networks of East Asian porcelain exports, destruction and iconoclasm. In order to trace the biographies of these objects, we have created, smashed and glued porcelain. The projects convey various approaches to the aesthetics and semantics of broken glass, and to reconstruction and restoration.
Smashed Japanese Imari, splinters of Chinese blue and white porcelain, shards from historical Meißen and Vienna factories: a room full of smashed porcelain, neatly arranged in piles. The “Shard Room” at Loosdorf Castle in Lower Austria, destroyed after World War II, invites you to reflect on fragility, destruction and reconstruction. The shards attest to the global networks of East Asian porcelain exports since the 17th century and the cultural appropriation and imitation of these luxury objects in Europe. In order to trace their fragmentary biographies, we have created porcelain objects, smashed them and glued them again, we have ...

The exhibition brings together various artistic positions on the theme of “opposition”. The reflection on the function of “opposition” in art, culture and society is made tangible through two contrasting presentation formats: on the one hand, the project [Opposition] takes place as a virtual Ringstraßen tour in the Artificial Museum (artificialmuseum.com), on the other hand, the associated reference objects can be viewed in the real space of the Angewandte.

PERSONAL CRAFT DEVELOPMENT 3rd year students. The projects were self-directed by the students – with the aim of refining their craft. FINAL COLLECTIONS 4th year students. The fashion department presents a new experience to permanently replace the show format. It is our intention to create a hybrid format, both physical and digital, that resonates locally as well as internationally. The experience will feature as part of the Angewandte festival and it will highlight the progressive vision of the course.

Beeple may not agree, but we think the material reality of a work of art is something wonderful. We want to be able to share with it a physical space, in which the scale is set by you. The past year has only reinforced this realization. We love making art, alone and together. Now we can present an exhibition again and want to celebrate the place of making. Here is where thoughts and imaginations become image. Welcome to our studio. THIS MUST BE THE PLACE.

As part of an educational institution, the collection and archive of the University of Applied Arts Vienna is embedded in a persistent process of change. According to the nature of the institutional gaze, it itself becomes the filter of a present and its constitution. We all leave traces that are filed or left behind. We want to examine them as voices, locate them and reflect upon a placeless space of their potential presence.

Leopold Kessler supported students of the TransArts department in developing independent work in public space during a workshop in the summer semester 2021. The workshop dealt with a range of possible interventions in public space and their particular requirements.
Abteilung bürokratischer Umsturz is a sound installation that takes its starting point in the description of the sounds of the study of the famously conscientious Italian civil servant Sordini in Kafka’s 1926 novel fragment The Castle. Staged as a fictional space and embedded in the corporate design of Angewandte, it questions the university as an educational and research institution as well as teaching and practising art against the backdrop of a concept that seeks to understand Kafka’s castle, characterised by bureaucracy and idiosyncratic discourses, as an ...

The Public Program “Are we there yet?” poses questions of equality in relations of inequality and investigates how a good life for all is possible. The focus is on the just distribution of spatial resources, the displacement of power relations in language, education and knowledge and an increased visibility of anti-racist and queer feminist positions. In addition to various actions in public space, artistic contributions and discursive processes are gathered at Angewandte in Flux 2.
The Public Program “Are we there yet?” poses questions of equality in relations of inequality and investigates how a good life for all is possible. But what does that actually mean?
Crises and related real urgencies form the background for intersectional cooperations that can imagine the world differently. In collaborative processes, artistic, activist and creative imaginations emerge that share resources, shift relations and move power.
We question current distributions of spatial resources on various levels. What laws, rules, norms and behaviours apply in spaces and how can these be made visible, reflected, decoded, prised open, ...

Using the architectural archetype of a column, new, digital, experimental design methods and concepts are explored. First, spatial structures were developed by means of the plug-in Karamba and divided into orthogonal voxels using the software Topos. Fologram was subsequently employed to adapt the geometry in a subarea and to analyse it statically and constructively. The optimised geometry was printed on a ceramic 3D printer and fired.

In this work, the shadow as an extension of ourselves stands for the dimension of our thoughts and perception. Is it possible to expand this, too, and immerse oneself in that of another person? To what extent will I ever be able to think differently and truly understand someone else? Whether this is possible, remains an open question.
The specially erected tent camp in the Social Design Studio provides space for the various projects. The topics dealt with trigger new (survival) strategies.

In the course of the pandemic, regulations and restrictions continue to shape our everyday life, and there is still no true feeling of safety. Not infrequently, we hear talk of a comeback or of the return to former familiarities and habits. As if the world had ever paused since the outbreak of the pandemic. As if the invoked certainties had ever existed. The fragility of living conditions, the inequality in pay and security, the injustices in health care, the restrictions in mobility and border crossing – this list could easily be continued – all of which has been exposed rather than ...

This collaboration in art and biology aims to make visible the sound communication between pollinating bats and some plants. Bats use ultrasound to see the world around them, which is an active kind of perception. This is especially difficult to understand from a human perspective since our senses are passive. We don’t have to do anything to see or hear. On the other hand, bats are in constant communication with their environment to perceive it. From this acoustic way of navigating, some plants developed different strategies to ...
Instead of hugging each other, our elbows touched. The participatory action “What does an elbow feel like?” explores the unusual touch of two elbows. Using clay and beeswax or rapeseed wax, a cultural development is documented in the form of sculpture. Is the elbow touch only a lame substitute for familiar ways of greeting or can it still become a valued touch without completely missing the perceptual dimension of feeling another body?
“The Decolonized Mars” is a photographic science-fiction story based on the ongoing debate about the term Anthropocene. I digitally visualize a version of one futures’ nature on Mars via photographed and AI generated images. In reference to herbaria I question the image and meaning of nature today. Terraformer and main character of my story is Erythro bacteria, which continuously transforms DNA and exists in perpetual exchange with its environment.
Students were asked to take an element of nature as the starting point of the collection; to create something that reflects sustainable values. “In our work we explore important nature related questions: What is the relationship between human, the human body and nature? How do we interact with nature? How does nature interact with us? Our relationship with nature in post-industrial times and in the digital era. Do we still think we are above nature? How do we as human beings fit in with nature, with this system ...

How can digital performances receive their own stage in analogue space? Team Vienna meets Team Hamburg anonymously online. Couples find each other without knowing. Hamburg sends thoughts to Vienna, Vienna sends thoughts to Hamburg. An open channel, pure telepathy, for half a year without knowing. The trains of thought intertwine and take on shape: Hamburg will send messages in bottles in the form of digital performances, Vienna has designed listening and viewing machines to capture them.
… with this prior knowledge in my head, I had a different idea of Frankenstein and was surprised after reading the book for the first time. The story left me with a sense of deep loneliness and stirred in me the suspicion of a silent voice hiding between the lines; an apparent surface covering a closer observation of reality.
Following the seminar and workshop “Collective (Self-)Care” by Berlin based artist Jeremy Wade, students create the space “Working Title“ in order to share and discuss with visitors (artistic) methods of collective care, rejuvenation and reflection and to imagine new inclusive work scenarios.
The boundaries are blurred and flexible, a randomness barely held together, a tool to make the tragic bearable, a way to worship the shown. Through time and action, experiences of inner and outer worlds are captured, invented, and presented: are we in the same place, the same space?

The exhibition explores the relationships between living beings, organic and inorganic processes. The artistic positions investigate the interplay of animate environments, against the backdrop of a politically and economically interwoven world. They offer a reading of the concept of “third nature”, which encompasses everything that manages to live despite all kinds of contaminations and manipulations by our capitalist system and to generate new forms of synergies.
The Angewandte Performance Laboratory (APL) activates a new field of development within the University of Applied Arts with a focus on artistic research through performative practices. The APL does pioneering work as a transversely organised platform, researches performative methods and explores a coherent interconnection between research and teaching, knowledge transfer and interaction. For the festival, the newly adapted room of the APL will be accessible through a performative installation.
“3V – Virtual Venue Vienna” examines the performative possibilities, spatial-physical perceptions and artistic-communicative scopes of action of virtual space. The resulting expertise will open up new possibilities for dancers, architects and digital artists to occupy virtual space. The project was conceived during the period of quarantine, out of the need to overcome the unexpected breakdown of immediate social communication and to find a “different” way of communicating. The central object of research is the physical body in virtual space.
CLEANING SCRIPT is concerned with invisible work, invisible work processes and the institutional structures that produce them.

Twilight, in which things do not appear entirely clear, is the godfather of effects of vagueness or questionability in images. Images influence in a sublime way: they evoke moods, direct the gaze, introduce allusions and can set the unambiguous in twilight. The effect of these deliberate manoeuvres on its recipients feeds an empirical aesthetic study (Gernot Gerger).
On the way – through the city, through nature, the flat, your own head. Observing everything, holding on to it. What’s important sticks, gets caught, triggers thought processes, then the hand. The hand puts down on paper what has been seen / what has happened – memory is transferred to image, transferred to text or text to image or everything transfers something, somehow. What paths does our perception take, what transformations take place?

A festive table takes up the whole room. On the table is all that is needed for a Grande Fête. The space is dedicated to being together, to sharing, to touching and feeling diversity. It is dedicated to research, to the material we have collected. It is filled with our ideas, our desires, dreams, jokes. We remember our favourite poems and recite our favourite lyrics.

We have selected Du Contrat Social (On the Social Contract) as our annual theme for the academic year 2020/21. In this key work of the Enlightenment, published in 1762, Jean-Jacques Rousseau explained the development of modern democracy based on the argument that all power must aim for the common good and certainly not for God’s grace.

Mouldelling Design: Sensing and Sense-Making is a cross-disciplinary project investigating the interconnectedness of fungi through the production of mycelium. The intention is to develop a framework for human and non-human cooperation, and to challenge the dualistic separations of science by adopting a queer, feminist, indigenous perspective. A multi-media exhibition shows mycelium-based derivatives, including leather, bricks, and paints embedded in the context of the topics of discussion.
This is a research based exhibition project that aims to portray democracy outside its utopian frame. Given that democracy is the predominant political system among the world’s most powerful nations, it is often idealized as the ultimate role model of governance. This collaborative project by students of the Cross-Disciplinary Strategies department Belén, Laura, Safia and Sama, delves into topics of inequality, migration and propaganda within democratic states.
“Don’t scribble on books!” they say, but that’s exactly what we did together. Based on our thoughts and ideas about sustainability for the future, we wrote a little piece of history. When we talk about the future, it’s important to define when (and where) we apply that term. We collectively annotated and scribbled on two classic economics books.
From this formula, the American art historian Rosalind Krauss develops the famous diagramme for a “Sculpture in the Expanded Field”. Hans Schabus takes up the idea of the expanded field by colouring the surfaces of Oskar-Kokoschka-Platz—street, pavements, kerbs, green areas—with white paint. White, the basic colour of art, stands for the beginning, for the moment before the first stroke, as well as for the result, the moment of exhibition. Schabus formulates white as a question; a question about who we are and where we want to ...

The project began as an open process with the collection of ideas, reactions and desires from all university members. Over three semesters, a collective design was developed. The partly undetermined function of the structure offers multi-layered possibilities of use and activity that are discovered and invented over and over. The project is realised by participants of the course Studio Wood from various departments of the Angewandte.
The characteristic feature of raku firing is that works are heated in a kiln to approx. 1000°C in a short time and then taken out of the kiln with tongs. The enormous thermal shock causes cracks in the glaze typical of the raku technique. Gerald Pfaffl and the team of the ceramics studio demonstrate the raku firing technique in the university courtyard at Oskar-Kokoschka-Platz.

Conservation science and restoration always begin with the object itself. Individual questions must be answered methodically, theoretically and practically. In the exhibition tactile traces of these research questions and thought processes are documented on vertical “work tables”. Tools, test pieces, test series, documentation drawings, right up to cannulas and spatulas are laid out on the tables.
Photos of objects before and after restoration are striking and also popular motifs in the media – the process that lies in between and encompasses numerous working and decision-making processes often remains invisible. Conservation and restoration operates at the interface of various disciplines: art, humanities, natural sciences, conservation sciences. It begins with the object and is characterised by careful consideration, a search for suitable methods and materials, a complex synopsis of numerous factors. The prerequisite is to familiarise oneself with the object, its materiality, structure, production, art historical and cultural historical significance. Often new tools and methods have to be ...

As a term project, students conceived various communication strategies and ideas that stimulate the discourse on conspiracy theories and counteract division in society. The aim is to impartially and respectfully bring people with different opinions together and to confront differences in a constructive way, to improve social cohesion, and to put what unites above what divides.
There are many conspiracy theories and their circulation via online media is becoming faster by the minute. Opposites and aggression often intensify. How can we handle this trend?
As a term project, students used various communication strategies and ideas to explore the possibilities of stimulating a respectful discourse on conspiracy theories and counteracting division in society. The starting point was extensive research into conspiracy theories today and in the past, into psychological and sociological backgrounds and into how the media and society deal with this topic. From there, the students developed campaigns to impartially, respectfully and positively ...

In this exhibition Design Investigations show how the changes in our society are manifested in the work of artists and designers, while we also undertake an experiment in the “opposite direction”. We design alternative realities, worlds and stories to explore the possibilities of our society.
If the global pandemic has taught us anything, it is that everything – from microscopic bodies to planetary systems, is interconnected and in continual transformation. And behind every transformation lies the hidden story of how such shifts came into being; visible in their anthropological, material, cultural and technological qualities. Of how they were conceived, distributed, used and even disposed of. This is as true for our fragile ecosystems, as it is for our deliberate, human interventions. In this year’s Design Investigations show, we unearth, explore, imagine and craft such stories and share them with you. From meditative simulations that ...

Our Department Industrial Design 1 has picked up on innovative initiatives and we show projects from the subject areas “Gather” (sharing/together), “To Go” (waste avoidance) and “Phase 3” (production methods/circular economy), that the students have been working on in the past three semesters.
The climate crisis is a major challenge of our generation. Our lifestyle, consumption, food and production play a significant role and without fundamental changes, limiting global warming is hardly achievable anymore. Designers can contribute to achieving the climate target by taking these factors into consideration at an early design stage.

The exhibition “Metaphorically Together” by the Transmedia Arts department for the Angewandte Festival shows works by students that are oriented towards the programmatics of manifestoes. Thereby, thematic and formal references to historical manifestoes arise, as well as questions about the extent to which this kind of artistic expression can still be useful today. The works shown are to be seen in the tension between translation and direct proclamation of one’s own artistic position.

RGB, analogue pixels, tattoo ink beneath the skin. How is the photographic image constructed?

RGB, analogue pixels, tattoo ink beneath the skin. How is the photographic image constructed? Different approaches to image truths and collectively developing the exhibition are in focus. Students respond to each other in their creative work process as they draw mutual inspiration from visual or content-related aspects. Intuitively the students thus relate to the playful method of Cadavre Exquis, which was developed in surrealism to detach control from reason. A hundred years ago this collective collage was used: sheets of paper were folded and passed on and a picture was drawn piece by piece. The exhibition results from a ...

What happens when a map lacks any indication of scale? What instincts do we follow then?
When forming breeding corridors, bark beetles follow natural principles as well as intuitive impulses. Each beetle draws its own lines, which resemble sculptural webs and aerial views of cities. In the installation, these serve as a map that allows people to follow their natural need for orientation.

Notations on ping-pong writing from the course „Sprachraum und künstlerische Praxis“ ( Language Space and Artistic Practice) of the TransArts department: accompanied by theory, this seminar was about perception and transformation in the description of an artistic work. Each participant provided a piece of work, about which others wrote as precisely as possible and as unambiguously as necessary.

After more than a year of the pandemic, public space is once again, in equal measures, a projection surface, place of longing and control space for the students of the University of Applied Arts. Vulnerability, fragility and the need for protection of the body are negotiated just as much as the political dimension of the public sphere.

According to Marcel Duchamp “inframince” refers to phenomena of the razor-thin, ultra-fine and undecidable in-between – such as the warmth that remains on a chair when a person stands up. In the exhibition at Heiligenkreuzerhof, “inframince” becomes a figure of thought for those moments in which the claim to transdisciplinarity in contemporary art seems to potentially materialize. On display are works by guests, graduates and students of TransArts.
Departing from the idea of reciprocal spatial and temporal pervasion, “inframince infra-mince infra mince“ explores what could distinguish transdisciplinary art today. The subjunctive is used here intentionally. Because this exhibition and publication project does not focus on terminological definitions and categorial boundaries, rather it is oriented upon a notion of artistic research, upon phenomena, practices, and procedures that enable us to traverse the multifaceted field of contemporary artistic production. The exhibition “inframince infra-mince infra mince“ traces the fleeting moments when different elements of artistic, theoretical, scientific, or everyday culture collide. Moments in which art, theory, science, and the everyday ...

The term facies comes from geology and describes all the characteristics of a rock that stem from its geological history. These inherent recordings of itself, inscribed in the material, are the focus of my investigation. The clays that are self-excavated and the rocks collected from different places become cooperation partners in the artistic process.
Working with the things that no one else can use: The exhibition “Andere brauchen Ihren Sitzplatz vielleicht notwendiger” (others may need your seat more) presents chairs that students of Industrial Design 1 have made from broken pieces of furniture and discarded objects. What would otherwise have ended up in the garbage has been revived, reinterpreted, recombined and has thus become part of an everyday object again. The proceeds from the auction will be donated to the “Flüchtlingsprojekt Ute Bock”.
Reimagining Heritage Craft – Students are inspired to develop an awareness of heritage craft and tradition unique to Vienna.

The first-year students of Art & Science present works stemming from a year-long encounter with MedAustron, a centre for ion therapy in Lower Austria. Driven by notions of traces and invisible forces, the exhibition distinguishes each individual’s grappling with the encounter. Inspired by visits to the particle accelerator and ongoing conversations with its team, a collaborative spirit is also apparent as the students looked to one another for support and growth throughout the experience.
The exhibition brings together various artistic positions on the theme of “opposition”. The reflection on the function of “opposition” in art, culture and society is made tangible through two contrasting presentation formats: on the one hand, the project [Opposition] takes place as a virtual Ringstraßen tour in the Artificial Museum (artificialmuseum.com), on the other hand, the associated reference objects can be viewed in the real space of the Angewandte.

Starting from a joint engagement with the term archive, students of Language Arts at the University of Applied Arts Vienna have developed audio walks: at the heart of these projects lies the universal question about stories that curate history and about the violence with which they are enforced – and the question what could “writing despite everything”, a writing that enters back rooms and the backs of pictures and that reshuffles the cards, look like?

In Emilia Galotti, one scene does not exist: the meeting of Prince and Emilia in the church. Why is the man so crazy about the young woman? Why is she at the mercy of his urges? In 18 scenes the elaboration of the encounter missing in the original tries to build a bridge between Lessing’s thoughts on bourgeois duties and the madness of the present. Emmy’s self-expressions regarding her state of mind still appear as a whispered voice in the choir.
Remote technologies seem to shape people’s spatial behaviour more than architectural elements themselves. Our urban tissue has become a metaverse, driven by chronic hyper-efficiency, simultaneity and equanimity. If we understand such practices as a direct reaction to the increasing lack of playfulness in virtual spaces, we need to ask: how can we pursue unpredictability and indeterminacy into the digital realm?
Picture this: holes in the archive, gaps in the room. Absence becomes an urban image (we fall into it) of an ephemeral phenomenon (yes?), a web that spins the body (again and again) and penetrates (oh), sometimes spits it out, making it an archive of what is absent itself.

The launch of our first printed edition during the festival allows us to showcase projects and encourage discussion not only to bridge the three studios and strengthen interaction, but also to share the institute’s efforts with the whole Angewandte.
The open window of the new “Klasse für Alle“ is an opportunity for conversations: Who is everyone? Do I want to be a part of it? How can we make kin in inventive ways to be present together? How can we communicate across class, age, cultural and ideological boundaries? What can be initiated by art? How can the university open up? How do we want to learn? Those interested in the department have the opportunity to talk to students and staff of the Angewandte about the emerging ...

Have you ever gotten lost or become disoriented? For people with dementia, going for a walk can easily pose a big challenge. During a themed tour, with input from the book “Arts and Dementia” we want to explore the topic and thereby build empathy. The destination invites us to an exciting guided tour at the Museum of Art History, which introduces us to the museum’s pioneering programs for people living with dementia.

HOPE ON HOPE OFF
On three days of the Angewandte Festival, a Viennese hop-on hop-off bus will be traveling stage for artistic contributions. The city, which, on the sightseeing bus, becomes the surface of a narrative of “VIENNA”, will be provided with new contexts by “HOPE ON HOPE OFF”. In juxtaposition of the steady acceleration of the bus with the passing city, concerts, readings, and performances, the reunion of art and audience will be celebrated and the hop-on hop-off bus will test its limits as a narrative apparatus.

Liebesgeschwurbel
Participatory Pref-romance (Tryout)
The grey area between those who demonstrate against Corona measures and you: a clear dissociation, but is it always this clear where it runs? We paint your grey area pink, although in this case love is not blind, but makes you see more clearly – since dating allows you to sound out impossible similarities. You will come closer to the protest march than might be comfortable for you – not physically though, but critically. And who knows: maybe romantically.

Head for the mind’s merry-go-round. Drugged-up air traffic controllers point us towards a runway.
The present’s fairground rides hurl us over the abyss. Are we stuck yet? “The experience of the abyss becomes the experience of an elementary disorientation and freedom,” Marcus Steinweg proclaims. “It is the experience of ontological incommensurability, which denounces the incommensurability of everything the subject holds as commensurable—all its certainties, values, evidence, and consistencies.” Will dizziness break apart the inescapable meaning of language? Can the philosophical thinking of unbalance find an equilibrium in language? And further, when we all speak ...

During our tour, we consciously perceive the path and our surroundings to evoke memories and associations, recorded via audio. Mdw students will create their own compositions from the audios. The City Walk is part of the artistic research project DEMEDARTS Dementia.Empathy.Education.Arts and is funded by PEEK, a programme of the FWF (Fund for the Promotion of Scientific Research) for the development and accessibility of the arts: A-609 PEEK.
The pandemic has reshaped our understanding of closeness and touch; this performance explores the boundaries of intimacy and distance. Questions arise from the divide of these seemingly opposed concepts. How far can we go to feel touched? How close are we allowed to be touched? “Carrying touch“ employs ritualistic performative approaches in order to interact with and map the intertwining nature of human narratives.

After 3 years of intense master study, one’s life as an architect begins to take hold and come into focus. Recent graduates from Studio Hani_Rashid will present some of their key works, ideas, and provocations post Angewandte. The focus of these short presentations will be on the unique trajectories each has taken on. Notions of new forms of practice, formulating a theory, intellectual probing, and a quest for deeper realms of research and understanding will be discussed with Hani Rashid.

How can we pursue incalculability and undeterminacy in virtual space? During the symposium more than 20 international participants negotiate their positions on creativity and learning in virtual (urban) space. To return these ideas to public space, Fluc will be the venue for the 15-minute contributions on 30 June and 1 July. The silent projections temporarily interweave virtual and urban space and invite us to think about the future of public space in virtual reality.
Remote technologies seem to shape people’s spatial behaviour more than architectural elements themselves. Our urban tissue has become a metaverse, driven by chronic hyper-efficiency, simultaneity and equanimity. If we understand such practices as a direct reaction to the increasing lack of playfulness in virtual spaces, we need to ask: how can we pursue unpredictability and indeterminacy into the digital realm?

Sharing of reflective things resonante
Wanderlust is to be outside and to encounter! Go for a walk, reflect with each other and exchange ideas on how research happens, develops and is constantly changing. Start at one of the two locations of Zentrum Fokus Forschung at VZA7 or at Rustenschacherallee 2-4 in Prater. On the route between, documented processes of the respective projects are hidden behind QR codes, refering to the manifestations at the two locations.
The participating visitors will have the chance to meet our teaching team during the guided virtual tour at studio díazmoreno garcíagrinda and learn about the architectural design projects that we have been working on at the studio so far. The exhibition will be showing examples of students’ work and the team will be answering questions related to the teaching methods and, last not least, the design agenda of the studio.

In a performative set of cards, we orient ourselves to a reinterpretation of dérive and detournement as a mind game. AI ethics, generative text and performance are grotesquely coupled with an interpassive mind-reading device. We invite you to surrender: to the staged generation of artistic research texts, to the oracle of neuro-interfaces, and to somatic experience. We play sensory expansion and introspection in the mists of time…
“Data Loam: Sometimes Hard, Usually Soft (the future of knowledge systems)” focuses on the materiality of information, questioning common models of knowledge, some of which are still rooted in Cold War logic. Instead of further dividing knowledge into silos, “Data Loam” welcomes the exponential growth of information and sees it as an opportunity. Emphasising arts-led research alongside curiosity and the logics of the senses, it sets in motion inclusive, dynamic knowledge systems of the future.

FRAKTUR
Cracking, breaking, crumbling until it dissolves into dust. Inhale for a long time, exhale hastily. Stroking the toad’s back until the echo of the croak fades. It buzzes in the distance and sluggishly, briskly it drifts there, without goal but nevertheless with end in sight. One step after the other. Even if these steps are not always regular. Until the synthetic gives up, the electrifying glow grows cold and one has finally arrived.

The contents of the city walk are accessible both in public space and online.
Who owns the Donaukanal? How can it be used? And what does it hold in store? In a participatory situation by the artist Anna Paul, we come into contact with a place and its users. Its decoding and appropriation becomes a collective experience: fresh fish included.
The curators give a guided tour of the exhibition at the Angewandte Innovation Lab of VIENNA BIENNALE for Change 2021. A total of seven artistic positions will be on display, predominantly from the perspective of the Global South, dedicated to the interconnections between living beings, organic and inorganic processes, as well as their economic, temporal and spatial conditions and potentials.
