LANGAGES MACHINES

Eröffnung: 15. Sept. 2017, 18.30 Uhr, Ausstellung bis: 22. Okt. 2017 Fondation Vasarely, Aix-en-Provence, France

Christa Sommerer und Laurent Mignonneau, Leitungsteam von Interface Cultures an der Kunstuniversität Linz, zeigen im Rahmend er Ausstellung ihre Arbeit "Life Writer".

Life Writer
consits of an old-style type writer that evokes the area of analogue text processing. In addition a normal piece of paper is used as projection screen and the position of the projection is always matched with the position of the type writer roll. When users type text into the keys of the type writer, the resulting letters appear as projected characters on the normal paper. When users then push the carriage return, the letters on screen transform into small black and white artificial life creatures that appear to float on the paper of the type writer itself. The creatures are based on genetic algorithms where text is used as the genetic code that determines the behaviour and movements of the creatures. The algorithms were developed for one of our previpus works called Life Spacies [2] and here the text functions as genetic code for the creation of artifical life creatures.
