Painting. Holodeck for House Crickets. If they could choose, where would domesticated crickets choose to be?

Holodeck for House Crickets

Living outdoors in the midwest winters is not a a survivable option for Acheta domesticus (house crickets), but perhaps they still yearn for the pastoral grasslands and woodlands experienced by their wild relatives. Actual nature would be a bit harsh for these crickets, who are raised in climate-controlled tanks as food for reptiles, so I have constructed a safe bubble for them. This enclosure provides an artificial landscape and provides a simulation of motion through it.

Liquid Sculpture. Gamescape. Create a city while playing the game!

gamescape

Gamescape visualizes all playing movements as a 3D-sculpture and all movements of all players as an entire city. Gamescape is an extension to the retro-game «l1neum» by «la1n». It is visualizing all playing movements of a player as a 3D-sculpture. While as the movements of one player make up a sculpture, all sculptures of all played games of all players are collected on a server and form an entire city: A city consisting of structures which are created by all the gamers' movements. This visualization of structures shows an ever-expanding universe of movements – finished and unfinished – and serves as a starting ground for a new game. 1200 Years of Italian Sculpture.
