Rolling Bridge
Le rolling bridge à la particularité de s’enrouler sur lui-même pour concilier à la fois la navigation fluviale du bassin Paddington et la sortie du magasin Marks & Spencer. L’objectif était de faire du mouvement, l’aspect extraordinaire du pont. Un pont roulant qui s’ouvre lentement et en douceur jusqu’à ce qu’il se transforme d’un pont droit classique, en une sculpture circulaire qui se trouve sur la rive du canal.

“It’s not a building, it’s not a sculpture, it’s not an artwork, and yet it has scale and relevance to all of those typologies… In a way, we’re thinking of this as a piece of furniture. Its ongoing use will evolve, quite naturally.”

This table is made from resin-infused paper, which is incredibly durable, highly sustainable and one of the few materials stable enough to achieve the level of precision required. At 1.8 metres when in its round form and 4 metres when extended to its longest ellipse, the Friction Table can seat groups of eight. more..
Beautiful Planet Earth
Vangelis, vlastním jménem Evangelos Odysseas Papathanassiou je proslulý řecký instrumentalista a hudební skladatel. Patří k průkopníkům elektronického popu, jeho tvorba ale zasahuje do více hudebních stylů.
COSMOS
Cosmos is a collection of Vangelis’ early-’70s space music. It is pure and graceful with no frills. Vangelis has an aggressive style on the synth, and these compositions are pure Berlin-school electronica, with cosmic and dynamic atmospheres. This will appeal to fans of Ron Boots, Klaus Schulze, Edgar Froese, and Ian Boddy.
Blade Runner
Vangelis’ soundtrack for Blade Runner remains one of the relatively few soundtracks to establish an enduring reputation as fine music in its own right. Vangelis, by mid-1981 when he was first invited to view a rough cut of footage from Blade Runner, was at the peak of his fame as a solo artist, following a half-decade long run of successful albums[…] Vangelis cleverly chose to adopt the film’s aesthetic as his own. The film wielded futuristic sci-fi to film noir detective drama and action, owing much to psychological thrillers or horror. The most obviously jarring example of how Vangelis simulated this approach was his commissioning of the ragtime jazz song ‘One More Kiss’, which he positioned at the very centre of his album of cutting edge electronica.
Horizon
Evangelos Odysseas Papathanassiou, más conocido como Vangelis (Volos, 29 de marzo de 1943), es un afamado teclista y compositor griego de música electrónica, orquestal, ambient, new age y rock progresivo.
Class room chair
Polyfunctionality and deconstruction of everyday objects, irony and humour as weapons and moments of profound insight: these are some of the ideas behind the works by the architect, designer, sculptor and film-maker, Stefan Wewerka (born in 1928, in Magdeburg).
In his works, Wewerka pushes against conventional concepts relating to art and aesthetics, rationalism and functionalism. As a result for instance, the Last Supper is turned into a weird affair, the kitchen space turned into a kitchen tree. Wewerka’s unmistakable trademark is the manipulation of chairs. Sawn, hacked and bent out of shape, these chairs subversively thwart previously unquestioned concepts relating to furniture. In stark contrast to this, however, are his sculptural furniture designs, adapted to suit the requirements of the human body and its habits.

The Parabola Chair
Kресло Parabola, спроектированное бюро Сarlo Aiello Design Studio, простое и сложное одновременно. В основе его дизайна лежит криволинейная поверхность, которая называется гиперболическим параболоидом. Однако конструкция модели несложная. Сиденья, подлокотники и спинка – это единая непрерывная структура из хромированной стали, а не части целого. Wирина кресла Parabola 71см, длина 97см, а высота 93 см. В 2013 году модель получила престижную награду International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) Studio Award.
Voxel Chair
Progettata da Manuel Jimenez Garcia e Gilles Retsin dello studio londinese di architettura madMdesign, VoxelChair V1.0 è una sedia/poltrona stampata in 3D che riprende le forme delle celebri sedie Phantom di Verner Panton. Nel video che pubblichiamo oggi è possibile osservare le fasi di produzione della VoxelChair, che, a differenza delle tradizionali sedute in materiali polimerici, non necessita di un costoso stampo, essendo stampata, linea per linea, da un braccio robotico. Per realizzare il prototipo della sedia è stato usato un software programmato ad hoc.

Muti Randolph lives in Rio de Janeiro and studied Visual Communications and Industrial Design at the Pontificia Universisade Católica do Rio de Janeiro. One of the pioneers in computer art, animation and 3d illustration in Brazil, he has been shifting from virtual 3d to real 3d spaces creating visual identities, graphics, illustrations, sets, and interior architecture projects for clients mainly in the entertainment, fashion and technology areas.
Designed to interact with the environment in which they are situated, Nathaniel Rackowe’s large scale architectural structures are built using light, kinetic elements and common industrial materials. Drawing on Minimalism’s attention to the relationship between viewer, object, and space, and fusing the structural codes and material outcomes of Modernism, Nathaniel’s works transports the viewer from passive observer to participant, exposing the otherwise unseen dimensions of visual and temporal spaces.
Orbit
Orbit is a kinetic light installation designed for a former railway tunnel. A series of rotors of increasing diameter and speed are positioned along the 80m space, projecting laser beams into the void. Their orbiting constellation targets towards a circular plane at the end of the tunnel.
Light in Water Installation
‘Light in Water’ is a site-specific installation intended to provide an immersive and emotional experience. It was previously presented at Milan Design Week 2011. The installation took advantage of the uniaue status of the venue – one of the oldest concrete domes in Paris. The installation was thus adapted to the circular form of the space, defining the inner sanctuary as a ‘place to be’ and an outer area as a space for a bystander. There are sixteen rings of slotted tubes on the ceiling. From each hole, 60 drops of water fall every minute; in total 3 tons of water circulate in the space. The LED lights vibrate between on and off, with frequencies ranging from the shortest interval possible, at 7μs, allowing the viewer to materialise a point of light in water, up to 6000μs, where light becomes the line of water.

El artista húngaro David Szauder, conocido como Pixel Noizz, indaga los rincones de la memoria donde las ideas y los recuerdos se fragmentan, y traduce estas composiciones en fotografías “dañadas”. La serie de Szauder, que lleva por nombre Failed Memories, explora la “naturaleza imperfecta de la memoria”, la que coarta la imagen clara de los pensamientos que generamos. Cuando por alguna causa física o emocional se pierden trozos de alguno, estas lagunas inundan la imagen y la vuelven borrosa.

The visual aspect of the piece is reduced to the loudspeakers, which are placed in the rooms and echo absorbing curtains that are installed alongside the walls. By walking through the different galleries of the Kunsthalle, the visitors to the exhibition are meant to compose their own soundtrack.
Roberto Pugliese Roberto Pugliese is an artist of Neapolitan origin whose work arises from contamination of the music with the visual art. The rejection of a single vision led him to develop his own individual poetics in which the sound, the undisputed protagonist, creates a world of visual environments.
The Sun never sets
His work is defined in sculptures, installations, drawings and music, but most of the time it‘s a symbiosis of these elements. His artistic practice is based on the creation of compositions with a specific acoustic and physical interaction, where form and sound coexist. The playful, unpredictable aspects of this interaction has his main interest. The specific qualities of music like tone, dynamics, rhythm, timbre and its swiftly immateriality create the poetic counterpart of the physical and visual.

Il fotografo francese Charles Pétillon ha creato una serie dal titolo Invasion, un progetto che ricorda in parte l’idea di The RedBall Project dell’artista Kurt Perschke o le Balloon Sculptures di Hans Hemmert. Centinai di palloncini bianchi straripano da spazi architettonici, quartieri e paesaggi naturali. Ogni foto diventa una metafora, una sensazione, o un’evoluzione dell’universo urbano. Gli scatti mirano a cambiare la nostra percezione del paesaggio che incontriamo tutti i giorni, trasformano un luogo comune in uno spazio inconsueto e straniante che ci spinge a osservare il quotidiano con occhi diversi.

Living pod
file festival
Light, shape variations and mimicry meet in Living Pod. In front of the false twin pieces, the user can slowly set garment A in motion using a light source. Garment B then imitates piece A in an exaggerated and unbalanced fashion, changing structure through miniature electric motors activated by light sensors that are sown through the garment. Using flat-pattern cutting techniques, Ying Gao was able to give the process fluidity and flexibility. In addition to the mechanical movements of the garments, Living Pods underlines two fundamental aspects of today’s fashion system: confrontation and imitation. The garment plays a mediating role between man and his environment. By using light, Living Pod is similar to project Walking City, which uses air to make the pieces look like they are breathing.

Fashion designer Ying Gao has fabricated a pair of dresses that writhe around and light up when someone stares at them.”We use an eye-tracking system so the dresses move when a spectator is staring,” Ying Gao told Dezeen. “[The system] can also turn off the lights, then the dresses illuminate.” The gaze-activated dresses are embedded with eye-tracking technology that responds to an observer’s gaze by activating tiny motors to move parts of the dresses in mesmerising patterns.
1774
In the year 1774 Louis XV died, marking the sunset of one of history’s most lavish monarchies. In the same year a young Swede named Johann Gahn, working in the deepest and wettest levels of a mine, discovered the metal Manganese. At a molecular level, when combined with oxides, manganese displays a striking “super-crystal” modularity. In this solid aluminum chair, two historic events—the super-excess of Louis XV and the super-crystal of Manganese—are fused into a single moment of design

SOLAR BELL
Inspired by Alexander Graham Bell’s lesser-known experiments with flight behavior of tetrahedrons, Berlin-based artist Tomas Saraceno developed Solar Bell – a lightweight, wind- and solar-powered, sculpture that plays with the concept of flying buildings. The artwork was designed and built to accompany the Maasvlakte 2 expansion of the port of Rotterdam on reclaimed land and poses an interesting question: what if a building was so light it could be lifted into the air by wind?
האופנאית הנודעת קו קו שאנל אמרה פעם, שההבדל בין אופנה לארכיטקטורה, הוא בפרופורציות.
Tara Keens-Douglas סיימה עתה את לימודי הארכיטקטורה באוניברסיטה של אונטריו קנדה ובעבודת הגמר שלה Ecstatic Spaces, היא חוקרת את הקשר בין תלבושות הקרנבל בארץ מולדתה טרינידד, לארכיטקטורה אישית. באמצעות מבני לבוש מנייר לבן העוטים נשים, היא ממחישה כי התלבושות הגרוטסקיות של הקרנבל יוצרות הגזמה וסובלימציה, הן מהוות כלי תקשורת בין הגוף לחלל, הן דרך לביטוי עצמי, הן רוויות הומור, לועגות לרצינות של העולם הפוליטי שמנהל את חיינו והן חוצות מעמדות. התלבושת היא אם כך הארכיטקטורה של הגוף, מעצימה את הגוף ונותנת לו פרופורציות שאין לו ועושה לו אידיאליזציה. התלבושות גם מעניקות זהות לקהילה, ומאפשרות לנו לצאת מתוך גופנו ולהתחבר למשהו רחב יותר, לאקסטזה של הפסטיבל שמסביב.
The Contemporary Art Center in Córdoba is not a centralized building: the center moves from one space to another, it is everywhere. It is configured as a sequence of precincts linked to a public space, onto which all the different functions of the building flow. Conceived as a place for interaction, it is a common space in which one can express and exchange ideas, see an installation, access exhibitions, visit the cafeteria, spend time in the media library, wait for a performance to begin in the black box, or maybe simply look out onto the Guadalquivir River. The materials help to achieve the art factory character pervading the entire project. In the interior, bare walls, slabs of concrete, and continuous paved flooring establish a spatial structure susceptible to being transformed individually through different interventions. A network of electric, digital, audiovisual, and lighting infrastructures ease access to sockets and connections throughout the building. On the exterior, the building asserts its presence by means of a single material: prefabricated concrete fiberglass panels, or GRC.

6&7
Tao Ye rejects any attempts to harness his work to narrative, which is why he numbers his choreographies rather than naming them. Numbers 6 and 7 were choreographed one after the other, but are presented here as a single work. 6 takes us into a dark world: six black-clad dancers emerge out of a foggy landscape resembling smog-choked Beijing. They start moving with one ‘voice’, treading the ground firmly and dancing—chiefly with the upper part of their bodies—a ritualistic dance which stretches the human body to the very limits of its flexibility. An equally minimalist soundtrack and the exceptional lighting design of Sweden’s Ellen Ruge, a close collaborator of Mats Ek, who has done a lot of high-profile work here in Greece, complete the raw materials of this performance-experience.
Since its founding in 2008, TAO Dance Theater has taken China‟s dance world by storm. The company has performed in every modern dance festival throughout the country and has collaborated with leading Chinese artists across genres including theatre, experimental music, film, visual arts and installation. TAO has been featured in performances as well as choreography and teaching residencies in festivals worldwide, including Europalia (BE), Culturescapes (CH), M.A.D.E. Festival (SE), Singapore Arts Festival, and the American Dance Festival (US).
6&8
In 6, his six dancers move in dynamic and hypnotising unison, in a shifting landscape of light created by Swedish lighting designer Ellen Ruge. His latest work 7 continues Tao Ye’s fascination with pattern, precision and ritual, and is distinguished by a sound track of acoustic effects generated by the seven dancers’ own bodies. Both 6 & 7 will be accompanied by specially commissioned music from Chinese indie folk composer Xiao He.
4&5
Tao Ye likes to designate his dances by number rather than name. After 4 comes 5, his latest to appear in the US: the 27-year-old choreographer behind Beijing’s six-member Tao Dance Theater is just getting started. And yet he is already a worldwide festival favourite and distinctive to boot, in spite of – or perhaps because of – his deliberately limited means. From 2012, 4 restricted itself to four dancers moving in unison and in a tight cohort within the square of the stage. The dancers’ faces were blacked out, their gaze down, their spines never succumbing to the easy beauty of uprightness, and their voluminous costumes, full of folds and creases, were identical.

Nascono cosi’ opere delicatamente strutturate che comunicano allo stesso tempo frammentazione e concentrazione focalizzata.
