1. Core Sample

   Core Sample is a GPS-based interactive sound walk and corresponding sound sculpture that evokes
   the material and cultural histories contained in and suggested by the landscape of Spectacle Island.
   The piece engages the extended landscape of Boston Harbor as bound by the new Boston Institute of
   Contemporary Art building on the downtown waterfront, and Spectacle Island, a former dump and
   reclaimed landfill park visible just off the coast. The two sites function dialogically, questioning
   what is seen versus what is not seen, what is preserved and recorded versus what is suppressed and
   denied. (Source: Project website)

4. Folgen

   The project ‘Folgen’ looks at the publication of personal archives and the tension between the public and private experience. This is explored by the personal experience of what it is like to follow somebody, first by monitoring the videos people put online, then following this information to actual physical addresses within the city where these videos were produced. Staged as a performance and installation, Folgen draws on the existing narratives of amateur video makers found on YouTube to build a multi-layered media landscape of Berlin. A subjective approach combines fragments of images and sound from the videos with the artist’s own narration, using the traces video makers have left in the public sphere of the internet to follow people throughout the city. The videos are self-representative acts, performances and depictions of the everyday, which together form a relation with the city spaces where they transpire. The geographic locations encoded in the videos become waypoints for traversing an unofficial, unintentional map of Berlin.

5. SFZero

   SF0 is an alternate-reality game in which players are encouraged to complete surreal tasks from a variety of disciplines. Generally, these tasks are designed to in some way effect the real world. An example of a task: "Refuse to allow your celebrations and habits be bound by arbitrary turns of the celestial screw. Publicly do something out of season. Document the reactions of the timebound."

10. Radiant Copenhagen

    "Klokken fem samme morgen havde en organisation ved navn Radiant Copenhagen udsendt en pressemeddelelse, hvori de udgav sig for at være en nystartet underafdeling af selvsamme Wonderful Copenhagen og bekendtgjorde, at en replika i overstørrelse af den tidligst kendte udgave af arten homo sapiens, Jing Chang-kraniet fra Kina, skulle vikariere for havfruen, mens hun var nede hos kineserne. »En fantastisk idé, som måske kunne skabe lidt røre i andedammen,« som en talsmand fra Radiant Copenhagen formulerede det. Er det billedkunst? Litteratur? Performance? Det er gudskelov det hele på en gang og med garanti noget fjerde. At ville skelne er fuldstændig at overse hybridens potentiale. Men allerede som elektronisk kunst og litteratur repræsenterer det, takket være sit kæmpe omfang og sin gennemarbejdede form, et meget ambitiøst forsøg i dansk sammenhæng. " -Sitert fra Christian Yde Frostholms rapport on Radiant Copenhagen: http://cyf.dk/klumme/etvirkeligtparal.html Medvirkende: Maja Zander, Kaspar Bonnen, Stig W Jørgensen, Palle R.
