"The Sound of Europe" (avi, 63MB)
For its contribution to “The Sound of Europe,” Ars Electronica Futurelab staffers
have deployed a custom-made interactive media display (nine screens with
a total projection surface of about 160 m²), which will provide images
of both the complexity of the topics and debates as well as the multifarious
viewpoints of the participants.
The media installations and infrastructure react to the conference proceedings
but do not intervene in or comment upon the discussions; rather, these
features support the discussions by providing recapitulations and analytical
visualizations.
Several media art interventions provide a fascinating contrast to the panel discussions and complement the discourse in an inspiring way. The entire conference is thus endowed with a visual as well as a musical identity that is derived directly from the topics and content under discussion rather than merely providing a decorative embellishment of them.
