==[[Andreas Beyer]]: The Radiostar==

Since more than 100 years humankind uses technology for broardcasting content and for some physics reasons nearly 80% of that signals are just "lost" in space. That means the nearby outer space ( 100 ly orbit) is in a way a kind of radioarchive or a cultural documentation of hunmankinds ability to send signals with several technologies. I'm focused on the frequency band of ultra short wave radio signals. To explain this cosmic-international radioarchive, I want to create a navigationplan to "travel" through that archive. the installation will be a (selfmade) telescopebody (no tech inside) that can be moved in different directions to zoom into a model of that "radiohalo". The room, where the telescope will be placed, is prepaired with some small radiotransmitters (selfmade) to symbolize where some particularly broadcasts are “waving” in outer space. Inside that telescopebody will be some, i think maybe three, radioreceivers to get in contact with the transmitters and by moving that telescopebody the recipient can adjust the programm that sounds in the body of the telescope (sorry for my bad english).

==[[Jamie Ferguson]]: [[/Vanessa_Cardui in Space/]]==

This project began by following the 'Butterflies In Space' project sponsored by the National Space Biomedical Research Institute; Vanessa Cardui larvae that hatched six days earlier flew aboard Space Shuttle Atlantis to the International Space Station. Children from American elementary schools were encouraged to take part by creating their own butterfly habitats in the class room, to watch the butterflies live and grow and die over the course of 25 days; the greatest variable being gravity. The second was possibly the 'payload', the artificial habitat taken aboard to house the larvae. The difference is not so much in its content but with the container itself. A 'flight certified scientific insert' was developed at BioServe Space Technologies at the University of Colorado. "Our…competency is enabling the conduct of space life sciences research in a highly regulated environment in such a way as to make the complicated process completely transparent to the investigator." This appeared a very different object from the terrariums and disposable plastic food containers the school children were promoted to use, but their aims were comparable.

VOYAGEO consists of projections of satellite pictures onto the human body. These pictures are not about act photography, but about the recognition of earth and the human body. Mankind has a high selfconfidence about itself and its reign on earth but still is not really selfaware. We are trying to produce thus selfconsciousness by showing not the beauty showed in today's media. We want to have a look on the everyday reality of body and earth.

Infinity is the topic of art works and theoretical essays. During the Romantic Caspar David Friedrich tried to visualize the feeling of infinity in his drawings. Superiority.

In my work I am focusing on the current problem of disposal sites in Germany and its use. Focusing on the topic 'Space is the place', I endeavor significant towards the Erfurt-Schwerborn disposal site which has witnessed radical changes over the past 5 years.

==[[Martin Ketelhut]], [[Sylvia Rohr]]: [[/Alieno|Alieno - Artificial space pictures made by pure photography and montage]]==

The plan was to produce artificial space pictures that are made by pure photography and montage. Different materials, objects, gases and liquid mixtures - directly shot or shot through a microscope with short and long exposure time - built the basis and got later arranged to those space pics.

When the child is interacting with the object playing a part in the story it‘s more easy for them to get a connection between the actual sense of making up something in addition to the creative process. they can use the „aliens“ they build before to make up further stories and play them within their family. In the end their will be a book which provides a inter-social way of reading, listening, building and a wide range of playing effects on little children as much as on adults. It is „talking“ to different senses and invites everybody to join who loves to see the world and especially the space more open minded and in a creatively way of thinking about “out there”.

==[[Stefan Bernhardt]], [[Christoph Schreiber]]: [[/Captain Rock'it and the Sound of Stars/]]==

Imagine the universe's infinite emptiness, a place where absolute silence rules. We want to fill this space symbolical and to give the innumerably stars a special sound.

In interaction between the user with the stars and the stars among themselves, there will be different sounds create. They will picture a musically portrait of the universe.

The moon has come into focus again in the great Space race.  It has been forty years since Neil Armstrong landed on the moon, now after the recent discovery of water on the moon a new interest has been sparked about finally heading back.  In this new moon race has new contenders, the US and Russia are no longer in the lead.  By 2015 it might be a Chinese man to be the next to step foot on the moon.
