Title Excerpt Metadata Color
Prometheus Bound – In the pursuit of perpetual energy
Prometheus Bound probes the gap between clean energy myths and the messy reality of algae cultivation, while also questioning the ethics of biocontrol and the labor of harvesting electricity from living species.
Are You a Software Update?
Are You a Software Update? brings together seven authors to examine the intensifying form of totalitarianism grounded in the quiet background logic of contemporary technology. 
Trail Sync – Decentralized alpine data sharing for hikers
Trail Sync is a participatory system for alpine routes, rooted in the mountain values of collective responsibility and solidarity, that reinforces existing signage infrastructure without increasing technological dependency.
Off Grid Assemblies – DIY kit for off-grid electricity
This project aims to create a low-cost DIY kit for off-grid electricity in collaboration with the local community, empowering them to construct and maintain the turbines independently for supplemental electricity generation.

  • To Heat a Candle with the Warmth of You – Material realities of (AI) computation
    To Heat a Candle with the Warmth of You explores the energy consumption of AI through the medium of heat. The self-referencing system is prompted and the resulting heat from the computation slowly melts and erodes the candle in the physical world.
    Electrostatic Pollen – Solar-powered genomic beacon
    Electrostatic Pollen is an artificial plant, a system, that converts energy from the sun into the proliferation of genes. It is a surrogate host for the genetic material of the common peach tree and it continuously broadcasts the complete genomic ...
    Pump and Surf – Exchanging physical energy for digital information
    Created by Aurélien Pellegrini at ECAL , 'Pump and Surf' encourages internet users to find out how much energy is spent when they are surfing the internet. The user is asked to make a physical effort equal to the energy required to convey the data...
    HARVEST – Mining cryptocurrency with wind to fund climate research
    Created by Julian Oliver and commissioned by the Konstmuseet i Skövde, HARVEST is a work of critical engineering and computational climate art. It uses wind-energy to mine cryptocurrency, the earnings of which are used as a source of funding for c...
    EM Table – Exploring possible new interactions
    Created by Florian Dussopt, EM table is an experimental object that is able to produce a localised electromagnetic field when switched on.

    Electrostatic Pollen – Solar-powered genomic beacon
    Electrostatic Pollen is an artificial plant, a system, that converts energy from the sun into the proliferation of genes. It is a surrogate host for the genetic material of the common peach tree and it continuously broadcasts the complete genomic sequence, indefinitely, as long as the electronics remain intact.
