Hanging Drawbot is a drawing robot that sketches lines self-sufficiently and algorithmically. The spectator can interact with the machine, affecting its movements. Ideally, a symbiosis of coincidence, machine and human being should create art through cooperation.

Google’s Tilt Brush puts an excellent virtual reality painting and modeling program into users’ hands. Teaming it up with the VR system HTC Vive lets you render and design in three-dimensional space.

Manipulating the controller in the form of a paintbrush proceeds intuitively and precisely, and brings forth impressive digital sculptures.

This digital activity project by Linz Art University’s Art Education program invites visitors to become interactive players of a popular game.

But here the drawing, explaining, pantomimic description and recognition proceed by means of tablets, monitors, headphones and a virtual assistant called Siri. As in a game of Chinese Whispers, the terms are passed along by word-of-mouth and, if all goes well, are understood literally. Get in the game!

In contrast to the rest of the u19 – CREATE YOUR WORLD festival, where lots of things can be tried out in open labs or learned in one-on-one conversations, there is stuff here that can be discovered only by careful examination and doesn’t come to light until you’re prepared to change your point of view.

You can consider it a sort of reward for sharpening your own senses. In this neighborhood of POSTCITY, festival visitors can come upon examples of anamorphosis, phenomena that become visible or legible only when one stands on a particular point and assumes a suitable perspective. Point of View addresses precisely these facts and circumstances, which can be understood just as well in a figurative sense. Interrelationships and meanings too can often be recognized only from a certain perspective.

Point of View is set up both on a large scale in the spacious halls of this former logistics facility as well as in tiny, inconspicuous corners everywhere. In the Point of View open lab, you can scrutinize this anamorphosis model and try it out yourself.
