Interception II as well as Interception, both are performances of pure “urban hacktivism”, held in Poland by Roch Forowicz, an artist from Warsaw focused predominantly on experimentations involving

Pufis represent microorganisms living in an open ecosystem, while the collection of objects functions as a sensitive sensory network. The visitor is subsumed into the artificially produced »biosphere« through active sensor-based interaction. Pufination is incomplete without interaction. There's no leading role; we're all just cohabiting.

Der Robomoji ist ein Mikroprozessor gesteuerter, cocktailmixender Roboter, der völlig automatisch den köstlichen Mojito-Cocktail mixen kann. Metall, Druckluft und Elektronik geben dem Roboter genug Kraft für einen langen, elektrifizierenden Cocktailabend.

Multichannel sound projection/installation of composition for 6 prerecorded Flutes (bass x2, C x2 and piccolo x2) + live electronics composed and notatated using FLOSS tools (pure-data, perl, lilypond) a copy of the music score (10m long A3 scroll) will also be projected as a scrolling png → video.

Questions on the FLOSS movement and its community.

In this workshop, participants will learn how to control and misuse photographic and astronomical equipment for purposes not intended by the manufacturer. We will turn cheap compact cameras into scriptable power horses using the Canon Hacker's Development Kit (CHDK). Remotely control cameras via USB and gphoto2. Take a look at Kite Aerial Photography with picavet mounts and see how to use astronomical equipment for panoramic photography.

The participants will build a MiMOSA from scratch. The MiMOSA will be built into a vehicle, offering mobility for urban media interventions on a low scale. An old computer will be put apart and/or enhanced with audio / video capture equipment in order to record, stream and broadcast visual and audible sources and traces, put together and collected in the streets of linz. Further the participants will be part of public interventions, that will be maybe even unmediated, direct and spontaneous.

Participants will learn how to mix and twist video and audio signal and feeding the result into standard tube - tv-sets. The result may be twisted image and strange sounds and noises, that go along together simultaneously and interfere one with the other. Further the participants will use their electric body resistance to influence frequencies and amplitude of audio and videosignals.

Make your own Sonic Device in 2 days. PCB Board, Components, predrilled Alu-Case and detailed Manual are delivered. Max. 5 Participants, with personal support of Sascha Neudeck (aka SubtleNoiseMaker), Final Live-Performance together.

During the break the Infoladen Treibsand will serve good food at fair prices.

An entertaining view on a totally crazy part of our society.

GOTO10 is a collective of international artists and programmers, dedicated to Free/Libre/Open Source Software (FLOSS) and digital arts. GOTO10 aims to support and grow digital art projects and tools for artistic creation, located on the blurry line between software programming and art.

70,200 samples in 33 seconds: nightmare for GERMAN RIAA. Art against copyright. If you want to register a song at GEMA (RIAA, ASCAP of Germany) you have to fill in a form for each sample you use, even the tiniest bit. On 12 Sept 08, German Avantgarde musician Johannes Kreidler registered – as a live performance event – a short musical work that contains 70,200 quotations with GEMA using 70,200 forms.
