Under the name AckerEleven, events are held irregularly by the organisations based at the organisations there. For this Night of the Museums, the MIREVI team, LavaLabs and Robert “Opty” Roschwig organised a Phygital Art Lounge, combining and extending our Mixed Reality Art Lounge with analog street art curated by Turbo Urban.
Integrating into the exhibition seamlessly, MIREVI presented two interactive frames: Sylybo – Eine synästhetische Lyrikbox (Sylybo – a synaesthetic poetry box) fuses the visual style of popular artists such as Yayoi Kusama, Frida Kahlo or HR Giger with fotos taken using generative artificial intelligence. Similarly, our Van Gogh Mirror reflects the world as hypothetical paintings by dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh in real time using Stable Diffusion.
Finally, we present one of our highlights: Combining physical artwork by Georg H. Schmidt and Colour Stream, our interactive particle stream that mixes colours in real time. The piece represents the coming together of two worlds – physical and digital, art and technology.
