KORRELATION
KORRELATION
Interactive Media Installation on hybrid ecosystems
Premiered in September 2020
Commissioned by ZKM | Center for Arts and Media Karlsruhe
Produced for “Seasons of Media Arts” Festival
KORRELATION transforms a street in the center of Karlsruhe into an hybrid landscape that changes under the feet of passers-by and visualizes the traces they leave behind.
The installation is divided into two phases: One focuses on the sensual perception, the other one on a scientific, data-based observation of our environment. Using projection, sound and sensor technology, the work thematizes water as one of our planet’s most precious resources and draws attention to the close relationship between man, nature and technology. How do we fathom the interdependence of all human and non-human actors with whom we share and shape our habitat?

Under the topic “Cyper Structures: Material Realites – Digial Experiences” the work reveals the Alzette river that flows beneath street level, making visible the river that gives its name to the city of Esch-sur-Alzette. The Alzette springs near Thil in France, crosses through Esch largely underground, before reaching Luxembourg City, Mersch, and Ettelbruck, where it flows into the Sûre, a tributary of the Moselle, which in turn feeds the Rhine, one of Europe’s backbone axis. The Alzette connects the city and Luxembourg to the vast political, social and cultural network of Europe. KORRELATION gives this connection a tangible, playful and interactive form.
