I am a Sensor

2013

Aus dem Äther in den Körper

Since the 90ies many devices and machines have found their place between the artist and its audience. Communication happens in an controlled, planned, downsized way – in short: posthuman. In doing so we accept that every interface deflect the attention from our senses in favour of technical devices and data.

An experiment shows what happens when the body is given back its place as the ultimate instance of evaluation and the natural senses of humans and other living beings are brought into the center of consideration.

The video has been produced for the annual meeting of the german association of media sciences, Leuphana University Lüneburg 2013
