This is a study of landscape, but also a re-imagined mapping, told from the point of view of a non-local, with all the political difficulties that concept brings to light. Inspired by the topographical nature of Australia, it plays with moving frame-by-frame animation and bright colours drawn from topographical data, and experiments with how this might be represented in a 3D holographic environment. As part of the exhibition, a research book of approx 200 pages was also put together, allowing visitors to delve into the scientific research behind these artworks.Ĭartology Apology is a fantasy cartography-in-motion where old and new technologies combine.

In each case, extensive scientific research and predictive modelling by others was used, from which a series of animations were created that told the stories, and potential futures, of each of these creatures. With some minor emphasis also placed on creatures whose senses and perceptions are altered by climate change due to habitat destruction in particular – the turtle and magnetoreception, the frog and auditory perception, the fish and olfactory senses. Focusing on examples where habitat destruction was not the major factor, but rising temperatures themselves were the key factor, the creatures chosen were the bat and echolocation, the horse and proprioception, the lizard and chemoreception, and the woodlouse and hygroreception. This exhibition was the culmination of her research into how certain animals are having their sensory systems morphed by climate change. Under-Mine was a solo exhibition by EphemerLab artist Alinta Krauth, of five new digital video works and one new interactive work using a custom-built control system that premiered at Art Laboratory Berlin between February 25th and late April, 2017, in conjunction with CTM Festival and Transmediale Festival Vorspiel. A hidden speaker sets off sounds each time the work is interacted with by the audience. As it is a working train bridge, trains often passed overhead, at which point a separate train animation would run in time with the overhead train, meant to look like an xray of what was happening above. The audience can control a steam train that drives through the tracks, as well as setting off separate animations. The work was interactive in a number of ways.
A wandering forest of bioluminescence grew up over these tracks, and each time a train came through, they would be blown away, only to regrow with time.
The work revolves around the central theme of the train tracks, from which an ‘xray view’ of the tracks above was made. This festival sat in conjunction with the World Science Festival. If the forest wanders is an interactive projection mapping of the underside of a train bridge, that uses hand-drawn imagery of bioluminescent sea creatures and fungi, for Brisbane City Council’s Friday Night Laneways Organic Data festival.
