according to Arikan: When a digital camera is placed close to a computer screen we can discover a new disharmony. The intersection of the limits of the devices - the camera’s zoom and the screen’s resolution - creates blurry images. Having world flags on the screen to which the camera moves too close reminds the problem of having physically distinct but politically blurry borders between nations.

Johanna Billing



MAGICAL WORLD documents a group of children from Zagreb, Croatia performing this pop masterpiece, originally written for the Chicago vocal group "The Rotary Connection" in the summer of love. This very mixed vocal pop ensemble with the outstanding voice of Minnie Ripperton in lead is in Billings version replaced by a group of suburban kids, singing: "Why do you wake me up / From such a beautiful dream / Can't you see that I am sleeping / So why / don't you leave me alone /... / I live in a magical world."

YesYesNo were asked to turn the Auckland Ferry Building into an interactive playground for the viewers. There were 3 different types of interaction – body interaction on the two stages, hand interaction above a light table, and phone interaction with the tracking of waving phones. That input was then used to manipulate 6 different scenes.

Pakayla Biehn



Pakayla Biehn’s most recent body of work concerns her congenital vision disability, called Strabismus. Her eyesight consists of mutually exclusive images trying, unsuccessfully, to bond into a cohesive impression. She uses her own embodied identity as a starting point for her paintings and installations. Her goal is to find a visual language to negotiate the intersection of imagery and create a similar perspective to give the viewer an understanding of her own optical condition.-Gallery Six in San Francisco
