Paidia Laboratory: feedback
Experiments, since 2011
With Paidia Institute
Paidia Laboratory: feedback examines computer games as closed feedback systems, as servomechanisms or control chains that may or may not involve human elements. In an ongoing series of artistic experiments the feedback behaviour of games is studied and put in new contexts through modifications of hardware and software, creating an open structure of artifacts, schematics and patterns. The focus lies not on the usability of games, but rather on an archeology of interaction – determining the limits and boundaries of games in order to understand the media specific characteristics of computer games and the spaces they create.

Sonnenwindperiskop / Solar Wind Periscope
Installation, 2011
In cooperation with Jonas Hansen

The Solar Wind Periscope is an artistic instrument visualizing atmospheric conditions that depend on space weather. It uses a radio receiver to measure HF radio signal range and relies upon a global network of amateur HAM-radio stations known as WSPRnet. It was developed for The Weather Tunnel Project at Translife Triennial 2011 and is part of an ongoing inquiry into weather beyond earth.
