Tower of Winds
During the day the perforated metal panels that cover the Tower of Winds reflect the city image and make the design appear humble and simple. But during the night, it gets lit up in an ever-changing combination of light intensity and colors. Using computer software, the lighting follows the wind speed and noise levels changing the Tower’s appearance accordingly. The Tower of Winds features more than 1300 light bulbs and 42 flood lights and neon rings (on each floor). The small lights change their colors according to the wind’s noise level and the rings change their intensity according to its speed.
Basically, the Tower of the Winds by Toyo Ito is a wind indicator in a constant relationship with the city and the natural environment, a junction between the two. It is placed at the train station area, welcoming the passengers arriving in Yokohama and its functional role is accommodating another natural element. Surprisingly the Tower of Winds houses the water tanks for the air-conditioning system of the underground mall below. The Tower is not a new construction, but a re-designing of an old concrete tower that already existed there since the ‘60s.

Le Paradoxe de Xerox
La mode interrogative à l’ère des devoirs super intelligents. Le « paradoxe de Xerox » est l’effet inverse de la technologie. Craignant un avenir sans papier, une enquête de Xerox Parc a conduit, entre autres, à l’IUG (Graphical User Interface) qui, à son tour, a entraîné une augmentation substantielle de la production de matériel imprimé.

Garden of Emoji Delights
FILE SAO PAULO 2015 

The Garden of Earthly Delights Triptych is one of the most famous works by the Dutch painter Hyeronimus Bosch. It dates back to the end of the fifteenth century and is kept in the Prado Museum in Madrid. The Triptych of the Garden of Emoji Delights is the version created by the contemporary artist Carla Gannis, in which space is invaded by small icons that today – thanks to the WhatsApp effect – are becoming an increasingly significant component of our language. It is not the first time that artists have played with emojis, perhaps inserting them in the real world or using them as neo-hieroglyphic fragments for cinematic riddles.

Liz Deschenes

Galeria 7
Desde o início da década de 1990, Liz Deschenes produziu um corpo singular de trabalho que avançou o potencial material e o escopo crítico da fotografia. Fazendo uso dos aspectos mais elementares do meio, ela recentemente trabalhou sem uma câmera para produzir fotogramas espelhados que refletem nossos movimentos no tempo e no espaço. Sua nova instalação investiga histórias díspares de produção, abstração e exibição de imagens, ao mesmo tempo que responde aos recursos exclusivos do site.

Irina Nakhova

Ирина Нахова
Pilot’s head
L’exposition russe présente une œuvre ambitieuse, intitulée «Le pavillon vert», à travers laquelle Irina Nakhova (née en 1955) interagit avec l’architecture du pavillon, conçu en 1913 par Aleksey Shchusev, également auteur du mausolée de Lénine à Moscou. à partir des «installations totales» d’Ilya Kabakov, et en poussant plus loin le concept exprimé dans ses propres installations «Rooms» des années 1980, Nakhova a mis en place cinq espaces, où une interaction complexe entre l’art, l’architecture et la perception du spectateur se développe de manière surprenante , exploitant ainsi le concept original de Shchusev, qui n’a pas conçu le pavillon comme un simple conteneur, mais comme un soutien actif à la créativité des artistes.

Rotary Tumble
FILE FESTIVAL

“Rotary Tumble” ist ein Experiment zur Projektionsabbildung auf ein sich bewegendes materielles Objekt. Wir beginnen mit einer frei drehenden Scheibe, die der Betrachter von Hand berühren und drehen kann. Mit einem optischen Drehgeber erkennt das System die genaue Geschwindigkeit, Richtung und Position der sich drehenden Scheibe in Echtzeit. Diese Rückkopplungsdaten werden verwendet, um eine physikalische Simulation von taumelnden Formen anzutreiben, die dann auf die sich drehende Scheibe selbst projiziert wird.

Consciência crescente
“Usando um vestido de coquetel, montei uma grande estrutura cinética feita de vigas de madeira e escadas na frente do público. Em seguida, caminhei e me equilibrei na estrutura de seis metros de largura, a 2,5 metros do chão. “Consciência crescente” aborda minhas preocupações contínuas sobre a fisicalidade da experiência, habitando o corpo, a propriocepção como o possível sentido mais forte do eu, como a consciência espacial se correlaciona com a consciência geral e a autoconsciência, como a fisicalidade aumenta a criatividade, encontrando o equilíbrio entre a gravidade e a ausência de fundamento, um conceito de felicidade como a expressão mais plena do potencial cognitivo particular de alguém, ultrapassando limites e a atual política irreverente de responsabilidade.” Eve Bailey

SPIRALALALA
The audience has been invited to experiment with various spatialised sound effects applied to their vocalisations that were synchronised with the movement of the balls falling along 35m long track. The interaction starts with insertion of the ball into the microphone. Then recording starts and after the recorded sound stops the ball is released to slide down along the track.

Water and Bonsai

In his continued forays into experimental botany that blur the lines between art and science, artist Makoto Azuma (previously) has reimagined the bonsai tree, one of the oldest Japanese artforms. This latest work titled Water and Bonsai, began with a dead branch from a juniper tree which was carefully attached to java moss meant to simulate the form of leaves. The entire piece was then submerged into a modified hydroponic environment similar to some of his earlier aquatic plantscapes replete with LEDs, a filtration system, and C02 emissions that encourage photosynthesis.
