InsideOut vol. II : Double up
InsideOut vol. II had its double up at two separate exhibitions at the art and technology project house Platform4.
In the end of August it was participating in the Platform4 In a Box exhibitions (see article) and then it was also displayed at the Platform4 Award Exhibition (read more) during the last weekend of October. Both events were a nice experience and the fact that people today are not that afraid of getting involved, letting a work invade and that most of the visitors are willing to participate in a work, which even demands direct contact with one’s skin, is simply just satisfaction. The general positive feedback is the top of the cherry pie.

One other detail about exhibiting at the Platform4 Awards is that the real-time biofeedback piece won the Jury’s Prize.

I am very very incredibly thankful for a lot of people here. I appreciate this prize a lot – it warms all of my heart that people out there are showing this kind of interest in and respect for this work. And special thanks to Christian Skjødt who helped me my process and made my imaginary sounds a true reality.
And gratulations to the People’s Choice work, Wolfram by Tossestreger.

the sweet and the sour go together… as after a happy smiling night i found my equipment messed up and a computer stolen the day after. so no display on the second day of the exhibition – the work is actually stolen as it was awarded (only other versions backed up). everybody can get an idea about how depressing that is. as i am quite sure that those dirty bustards stealing the computer have not even a tiny idea about how important stuff there is lying around on that machine….
