This year, the Night of Science in Düsseldorf will already take place for the fourth time. After a successful participation in 2019, the Mirevi team will again present several of their current projects.
In collaboration with Kainkollektiv and Sputnik, we created a digital monastery, growing as a hybrid of online exhibition and archive about the history of Kassia and the feminist movement.
The AR App ‟Feen” (Fairies) was developed by the MIREVI team of the HSD in collaboration with the Ballett am Rhein. The project was part of a joint participation in the world’s first AR Biennial, hosted by the museum Kunstpalast/NRW Forum Düsseldorf.
The advancing technology allows new forms of contemporary art expressions which, however,
require a large set of skills to be developed and therefore involve a team with diverse
backgrounds. In this paper, we present implementation details and the artistic background of the
art piece is a rose that was developed and exhibited in 2019. Based on this example and our
previous experience of work on different art applications, we provide an insight into the
interdisciplinary work between artists and developers.
After 2 years of workshops, residencies, performances, exhibitions and talks, the EU project Moving Digits came to an end, leaving behind numerous valuable traces of interdisciplinary collaboration between dancers, choreographers, technicians and designers. The project aimed at their empowerment with further tools for expression, archival and analysis, and in terms of audience, at enhancing its understanding and engagement in contemporary dance performances and allowing to experience dance in an augmented way.
The work ‘is a rose’ was created by artist Charlotte Triebus in cooperation with the Mirevi Lab and is deals with the interspecies communication between a romantic surveillance state and the actor-network theory. It addresses topics such as agency of animate and inanimate objects and the possibly overcome dichotomy of nature and technology, thereby revealing an equality of agents in a performative framework. Can we concede that each of these agents is capable of a behavior coming close to action?
The project aims at developing a contemporary dance performance complemented with a digital layer that dialogues with the dancers.
In this field, everything revolves around conceptional work, project management and exhibition design. All projects aim at complementing existing exhibitions by means of the diverse and innovative possibilities offered by modern technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) or project mapping. For this purpose, digital installations that enhance the present experience are developed.
