A number of interventions/experiments/scenarios will be implemented.
They question the characteristics of (mixed media) interaction from various perspectives.
Each scenario will be appropriately documented (and published).
The Performance Platform inside the Digital Bauhaus Lab is a laboratory in which different forms of interaction can be tested.
Besides its technical benefit for artistic and scientific research it defines an isolated and unique environment of ubiquitous high-tech
technology in seemingly „empty space“.
This project explores the Performance Platform as a site of our „physical reality“ as well as its role of a contemporary laboratory.
Fields of interest:
Interaction
- what makes interaction happen?
- how can "equal" communication be accomplished?
- who/what is in control of whom/what?
Technology
- how can the virtual affect the physical?
-> humans as a medium for change though the virtual?
- can technology be something (else than a means to an end)?
Laboratory
- abstraction and limitation
- inside / outside, theory and practice
