forest II - cellular automatonKonzept, Installation: Chris Ziegler Sound: Alexandre Decoupigny Ein digitaler Organismus, ein ?cellular automaton? lebt in ?forest II?. Er ?lebt? in Lebenszyklen, die von der Anwesenheit der Besucher beeinflu?t werden. Er atmet, macht Ger?usche, bewegt sich durch einen k?nstlichen Wald von Lichtobjekten und setzt Spuren von Licht. Pulsierendes Licht zeigt die Lebensaktivit?t des Organismus. Das klangliche Hauptmotiv der Installation ?forest II ? cellular automaton? ist der Atem. W?lder sind die Lungen des ?kologischen Systems Erde. Pulsierende, rhythmisch-kontemplative Atemger?usche simulieren dem Besucher ein lebendiges, organisches Wesen, das als digitaler Ur-oganismus in der Installation lebt. Diesem Hauptmotiv entspringen Klang-Organismen, deren akustische Gestalt der abstrahierten Klanglandschaft eines Waldes entspringt: Knacken und Knarzen, Rauschen und Surren, Klopfen und Krachen, Kreischen und ?chzen. Gemeinsam mit den leuchtenden Impulsen der Lichtinstallation materialisieren sich Kl?nge zu nahezu greifbaren, dennoch fl?chtigen Gestalten, die mit dem Besucher kommunizieren. www.kunstfest-weimar.de www.gloweindhoven.nl |

dis.placeinteractive installation plasma screen / video camera presented at "realtime and presence" workshop Hellerau, Dresden 7/02 and cynet-art festival 02realtime, Dresden 11/02 / EMAF 2003 (Euopean Media Art Festival) Osnabrück, Lichtrouten Lädenscheid 2003, Städtische Kunsthalle Mannheim, Lange Nacht der Museen 2004 In a closed-circuit setting, the beholder can see his or her mirror image - displaced. Some parts of the image are reproduced in real-time, others are delayed: a spatial finger whisks through the image after a fifteen-second delay. The beholder performs a Pas de deux with the imprint of past evennts. A plasma screen and a video camera are connected to a hidden PC. The video signal, before passed on to the screen, is dragged through the computer, which integrates a second video current of about fifteen seconds. Two image streams are generated: one that shows the video image in real-time and through which the observer can see him- or herself just like in a mirror. Another stream is split into light/dark data, causing a spatial deformation of the video image. This second "trace" is only reintegrated into the real-time image after the delay. Tis isolation of chronological events enables the viewer to enter a visual dialog with him- or herself and others. Of course, this playing with layers can also be turned around. Thus, temporal and spatial layers shift reciprocally. The beholder's presence appears to be relative in the peicture puzzle of real-time and delay. |

kyogen2000 DVD-ROM + DVD-series: Introduction in Kyogen (No) theater, produced at ZKM | Karlsruhe by TMC (Tokyo Media Connection) Tokyo and WASEDA University, Tokyo Silver Award I.D. magazine 2001 by Jenn Shreve: "On a darkened stage, a 600-year-old form of traditional Japanese theater is being performed. Kyogen, as it's called, uses highly stylized acting techniques to paint a portrait of the human experience. Predetermined gestures indicate such emotions as fear, surprise, anger and grief. But in the virtual auditorium of That's Kyogen-a DVD-ROM that will be used to teach the ancient method in schools-audience members do much more than simply watch. Jurors lauded this aesthetically pleasing, educational project for its distillation of an ancient art form into easily understandable categories: scripts, acting methods and movement, characters. Clear, concise navigation gives each user total control over what information is presented and when, while the interface helpfully provides cross-references and suggests intuitive conceptual relationships. For example, when a user is watching a video presentation of a play, thumbnail-sized images of the characters appear on the side of the screen. These can be clicked on to reveal deeper layers of information about each character without interrupting the action on stage. This project artfully explores the nonlinear potential of disc media, offering tutorials in both Japanese and English, and allows users to customize such options as subtitles. Video demos accompanied by the digital equivalent of a stage bill make for deeper communication of the philosophies and disciplines inherent in Kyogen." |

66movingimagesinteractive road movie 2 channel video, interactive control via movable monitor application software: Christian Ziegler, Torsten Ziegler linear navigator: Jeffrew Shaw In 66movingimages Ziegler has installed his journey as an interactive road movie on Route 66. Thanks to the linear navigator, the road from Chicago to Los Angeles becomes the over-arching spatial interface. The motorized screen, mounted on an 12-meter long rack, can be controlled by the viewer. When the monitor is in motion or stopped, what you see are spatial and temporal images from a filmic map. When moving, the film reproduces the spatial image metamorphoses on channel 1. When it is static, you see the scenic/documentary takes from Channel 2. The viewer navigates right through to the single-image level of the film. Here, "moving images" are images which the viewer moves. |
