Mediencampus der Hochschule Darmstadt
School of Art & Design am Cork Institute of Technology
2. 9. – 7. 9.

In conjunction with the Expanded Interfaces project, undergraduates in the Media Department at the Media Campus of the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences (h_da) in Germany and the School of Art & Design at the Cork Institute of Technology (CIT) in Ireland developed user interfaces for new media products that boldly go beyond conventional ones available now. The assignment was to reconceptualize and reinvent human-machine communication and the individual elements of interaction it entails in a large-scale scenario analogous to expanded cinema. In going about this, the innovative aspect of media environments and interfaces was made the most important design criterion. For the students, ethical, societal and social welfare issues were just as relevant as technical feasibility or imparting a sensorial-playful character to the experience.
