Markus Kison (de) - "Roermond-Ecke-Schönhauser"Webcams record inconceivable amounts of images and data. Markus Kison found four webcams in Denmark, Amsterdam, Berlin and Roermond and uses them for his 3D-installation. Through a special mirror construction the images are projected onto architectural models. The virtual existence of distant places becomes almost real - close enough to touch.

Agnes Meyer-Brandis (de) - "Eisberg-Sonde / SGM-Iceberg-Probe"Agnes Meyer-Brandis has made a surprising discovery: there are subterranian icebergs underneath Germany's Ice-Scating Halls! The artist explores this geological surprise with her SGM-Iceberg-Probe and a mobile drill hole. The probe simulates a dive into 120 meter's depth displaying, on an external monitor, a mixture of images from real antarctic holes and virtual ones generated in real time.

Yuko Mohri, Soichiro Mihara (jp) - "Vexations - Composition in Progress"Erik Satie's piece "Vexations" is said to be the longest composition, and the origin of minimal music. Yuko Mohri and Soichiro Mihara use Satie's piece to create a room installation as a sound medium. Together with the first "Vexations"-theme, every sound made in the room is also recorded, transformed into data, and played back as piano notes. In the course of the duration of the exhibition, Satie's theme is transformed into a totally new, ever-evolving piece of music.

Andres Ramirez Gaviria (co/at) - "-./"Ramirez' six minute video uses Morse Code to visualize and sonify a section of the index from the book “Point and Line to Plane”, written by Wassily Kandinsky in 1926. The project interpolates abstract aesthetic elements (e.g. line, plane, form) with the informational space constructed in the Morse Code translation. For Ramirez Gaviria, this is a way to invert the commonly known method of narration in audio-visual media.

Ubermorgen.com feat. Alessandro Ludovico vs. Paolo Cirio (at/it) -"GWEI - Google will eat itself" Ubermorgen declared war on Google: They generate money by serving Google text advertisements on their websites, technically deconstructing the new global advertisement mechanism by rendering it into a surreal click-based economic model. In order to take over and gain control of Google in due time, Ubermorgen use Google's pay checks to buy the company's shares, whose value currently sums up to more than all Swiss Banks together...
