Art & Science
The basis of the „European Digital Art and Science Network“ is a big manifold network consisting of scientific mentoring institutions (ESA, CERN, ESO and Fraunhofer MEVIS), the Ars Electronica Futurelab and seven European cultural partners (Center for the promotion of science, RS – DIG Gallery, SK – Zaragoza City of Knowledge Foundation, ES – Kapelica Gallery / Kersnikova, SI – GV Art, UK – Laboral, ES – Science Gallery, IE. The EU funded project lasted from 2014 to 2017. The Online Archive of Ars Electronica provides an overview of the individual activities of the network and also delivers information about the network itself, the residency artists and the involved project partners and the jury.

AGRIEBORZ / Nick Ervinck (BE)
For AGRIEBORZ, Nick Ervinck used imagery of human organs that he found in medical manuals as construction materials to create an organic form, a larynx (or voice box) “gone wild.” Though imaginary, AGRIEBORZ seems to retain some familiarity due to its visual connection to human organs, muscles, nerves, etc.

VIUNAP / Nick Ervinck (BE)
The EGATONK project was developed for the exhibition Horizon 8300 in Knokke, promoting new architecture for this Belgian seaside town.Nick Ervinck was invited to contribute an artwork to the exhibition. As a starting point Nick Ervinck uses traditional cottages, which he turns into absurd buildings. The cottages become figures with connotations to crabs and other sea animals that walk along the beach, resembling the impossible structures in the engravings of the mathematician Escher (1898-1972).

Seed Bed. 3D printed ceramics / Jonathan Keep (ZA)
The Seed Bed relates to the fundamental concept of evolutionary morphologies but also creative growth. Generated in computer code the working method lends itself to altering the code to make related and evolving shapes. Being able to 3D print these unique and individual forms directly from the computer in clay represents the strength of this technology and fulfills the artist`s desire to explore the possibilities of ceramic form.

Minibuilders / IAAC - Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (ES)
The construction industry is wasteful and inefficient, slow to adopt technologies that are already well established in other fields, such as robotics. Robotics and additive manufacturing offer great potential for innovation within the construction industry. However, in their current form, these systems all share a specific limitation. The objects they produce are linked to and constrained proportionally to the size of the machine. This methodology for production and construction is not scalable. Minibuilders is scalable, it supplants one large robot for a number of smaller agile robots, that work together effectively towards a single outcome.

Presence / Universal Everything (UK)
Presence turns the screen into a stage, the body into an abstracted sculpture. Experimenting with various materials and forms, the life-sized moving sculptures cycle through a randomised collection of “costumes” that range from colorful light trails to crystalline formations, with only the movement revealing the human presence within.

Voxel Posse / Universal Everything (UK)
Utilizing the powers of 3D printing and anthropomorphism, Universal Everything creates a fleet of miniature vector robots. Looking like crystalline rocks that sprouted legs, these creatures are yet another exploration into harnessing the most basic elements of the human form to infuse inanimate objects with the essence of life.

Queer City / Cenk Güzelis (TR)
Vienna 3000 was a 3rd year architectural design studio run by Hannes Mayer and Daniela Herold at the Institute of Art and Architecture, Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Dissatisfied with the reality of architecture as well as urban planning, the studio was driven by the ambition to explore the radical uncertainty of the far future. A vertical movement is introduced to the idea of space and city, placing emphasis on the space inbetween, the space where people meet and interact. Dynamics of a future urban reality between order and disorder. Frozen for display.

Time capsule / Helvijs Savickis (LV)
In the year 3000 the safe storage of nuclear waste will remain a challenge. To highlight the danger a nuclear waste information center is built in Vienna—seat of the IAEA, International Atomic Energy Agency. An impressive underground space functions as a time capsule whilst also open to the public—safeguarding the continuity of knowledge about a major threat to humanity.

Enlightened being / Michael Glechner (AT)

Dissatisfied with the reality of architecture as well as urban planning, the studio was driven by the ambition to explore the radical uncertainty of the far future. Due to evolution human beings have developed abilities to handle energy more directly. They can survive on absorbing energy that light and atmospheric vibrations emit. The properties of the city have changed accordingly. Light has become the major driver of a constantly changing urban planning process.

Movements / Marlene Lübke-Ahrens (AT)
In the far future any need for action has disappeared. Movement is pure leisure. Without the need for transportation infrastructure, the planning of the city is driven by notions of pleasure and experience. The bicycle has a renaissance as the ideal object for a pleasure ride and to retain the wellbeing of an otherwise passive society.

The Outline of Paradise by Ursula Damm (DE)
What would our cities look like if advertising messages were the techno esthetic of conventional advertising? The Outline of Paradise explores the promises and capabilities of technoscience and develops videos and installations out of these narratives. It sets the technology towards a natural, sensual esthetic, which would be natural and sustainable.

Architectural SonarWorks by Cédric Brandilly (FR)
The aim of Architectural SonarWorks is to create a musical / audio language based upon cartographic statements and architectural characteristics which belong to a definite space. It also consists in imagining architecture as a partition. Each architectural element, each building has characteristics that can be turned into sounds. The determination of a musical language from a linear—from point A to point B—is made possible. For this project the artist does not capture urban sounds to broadcast them at a later date, but instead writes real musical scores using map data.

Silk Leaf / Julian Melchiorri (GB/IT)
In a period where global carbon emission and urbanization are growing exponentially, the need for creating sustainable solutions for the indoor and outdoor urban environment arise. Melchiorri’s interest in natural phenomena and the recent scientific discoveries in biology and materials science enables him to explore the potential for creating photosynthetic materials aiming to bring the efficiency of nature into the man-made environment. Inspired by natural mechanisms and physical phenomena, Julian Melchiorri conducted laboratory experiments in order to explore the potential for making materials that photosynthesize, and their possible applications. Silk Leaf is the first result of this research.

Traces by Dana Zelig (IL)
Traces explores the concept of programming everyday materials, a form of “physical programming” where objects are “made to act” on some form following specific instructions. To explore this idea, Dana Zelig developed 12 processed-folding objects series, designed with the Processing programming language and various physical techniques.

BORTOBY by Nick Ervinck (BE)
BORTOBY is clearly animal-like, but is impossible to define well. One can see a lion-like body, crab-like legs and devils, but also a transformer robot or a monstrous creature.

Portrait on the Fly (2016) by Christa Sommerer (AT) and Laurent Mignonneau (FR/AT)
Portrait on the Fly consists of a series of interactive portraits and plotter drawings, inspired by Guiseppe Arcimboldo’s fantastic composite heads from the mid-15th century. For the series Portrait on the Fly Sommerer and Mignonneau modeled virtual insects that can align themselves so as to compose human portraits in real time.

Body Paint by exonemo (JP)
This work uses body painting to examine our physical definitions, our physicality, in a world of networked information devices. Each work in this portrait series features a person, nude, shaved, and painted entirely in a single shade of color, displayed on an LCD that has been entirely painted in the same color except for the human subject on the screen. The boundaries between background and foreground are erased—a human body and an electronic display body are both covered in the same color paint—and the works evoke the themes of ambiguity and confusion, and whether the individual depicted is a human being or a picture of a human being.

Welfare State 3000 by Matea Ban (HR)
Welfare State 3000 displays a social housing unit for hybrids between animals and humans. It is built at a time when men and animals are all the same and DNA engineering has sufficient power to modify the human genome. People acquire major animal attributes like flying or a much-prolonged life span and require appropriate accommodation. Five cross-species live in a hybrid habitat, the so-called “unity of architecture and landscape.” Hybrids between ladybirds, elephants, anacondas, crocodiles, seagulls, and humans reside in this housing estate.
