Office Live
Techart Group (TW)

The modern office as self-organizing and self-generating system is the core of this interactive installation that functions on the basis of a chain reaction. With it, the Techart Group calls into question the organization of the modern office and its working environment.
The installation’s protagonist is a fish in an aquarium. Through its movements, the fish sequentially activates various devices and thereby triggers a cyclical working process that culminates in the fish being fed. RFID, computer networks and sound frequency sensors are some of the technologies that make possible this tongue-in-cheek treatment of everyday life in the modern office.
