More #data, less weight: dataSTICKIES – sticky notes instead of USB drives

11. Dezember 2013 von schall & rauch

USB drives are soooooo yesterday. If you want to be up to date you better get some dataSTICKIES and get going! Stack and peel them, carry them around, stick, work and save, put them in your pocket, in your calendar, write on them, stare in amazement. No more slots, no more caps, no more turning the screen to plug the drive in. Just stick and play! You and I probably have something in common right now: a huge blinking question […]

Physics, #art and history: the Well-Tempered #Hygrometer – an #installation by Anna Kubelik

5. November 2013 von schall & rauch

Art exists within its own right. Art is not about function. Or is it? Anna Kubelik, a Berlin-based performative object and space artist seems intent on proving that it is or at least can be. Meet the Well-Tempered Hygrometer. This is not just any modern hygrometer with a digital display telling you about the relative humidity of air, so you know how to style your hair or if you should take an umbrella along, just in case. This amazing piece […]

Noch einmal Kind sein und hier spielen: kreative Spielplatzgestaltung meets the Tinman

11. Dezember 2012 von schall & rauch

Public Art, die Spaß macht – auf dem Silver Towers Playground in New York. Die Ähnlichkeit zu dem Tinman aus The Wizard of Oz ist unverkennbar, oder? Dieser Spielplatz kommt auf jeden Fall auf meine New York Sightseeing Liste. Ein gelungenes Projekt, das Nachahmer sucht! Vielleicht ja in Hamburg?!?
