Other Matter 5.0

Does architecture always need to be physical? What ways of spatial expression, notation, extension and new awareness can be achieved and designed through media? And what role could AR play in (re)programming and extending existing spaces, in exhibition design, performance spaces or within the confinements of our own habitat? In the course that resulted in the exhibition “Other Matter 5.0,” we investigated possibilities of virtual and augmented space population through playful use of digital technologies. We looked at different approaches of immaterial architecture in order to develop ephemeral, audio-visual objects, structures or installations which stand in dialogue and emulate new experiences in relation to an existing architectural context and artistic practice.
