In From Image to Interaction, Arjen Mulder traces evolutionary lines in the fine art of the past five hundred years that have led directly to the interactive art of today. He investigates the origins of modern art from Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo to Kandinsky, Mondrian and Paul Klee, whom he regards not only as great artists but above all as great media theorists. Step by step, Mulder develops a surprising perspective on the genealogy of art from 1910 to 2010 and the role and value of visual culture and design in the present.

What if Kafka's Internet suddenly came true and text were suddenly undecipherable as too many algorithms cancel out each other’s choice of uncensored words and all online communication were limited to emoticons?
These are the ideas behind interACTicons, a project enacting and visualising our online habits through the collection and performance of JPEGs, GIFs and videos by Ursula Endlicher that comprises of an online archive, several hands-on workshops and a final participatory performance.

Fair Use looks at our accelerating culture through the electronic performance and remixing of cinema. The trio uses the picture and soundtrack of culturally significant movies, drastically compressed in time, as the sole materials for an improvised set which interrogates our cinematic memories through frenetic audiovisual processing and re-narration of the cinematic object. Fair Use will be performing a triple feature based on The Wizard of Oz, Snow White and Kubrick's 2001, investigating three aspects of establishment of the self in an unknown universe.

Nominated for the transmediale Award 2011, this interactive sound installation by Christopher Warnow and Daniel Franke is more than just an interpretation of a composition by Rutger Zuydervelt. An interface, which reacts to the audiences' body movements, this work immerses the viewer by superimposing digital and architectural spaces. For each one of us a different, individual and fluid visualisation appears onscreen. This event is one of three occasions when the artists will be present for a show and tell of the work.
