/ unter Strom
Im Folgenden sehen Sie eine Auswahl von Arbeiten zum Thema Stromwahrnehmung. Prothesen als Sinneserweiterungen geben dem Menschen ein Bewusstsein für Energie.

tensed up
This project is about perceiving electricity. I built electronic devices and smart materials. I want to describe an analogy between our electric environment and our behaviour through a specific awareness.

Abstract
15.12.10

How do we react to electric current?
What forms of expression does electric current have?
Are they close to human beings?
How do materials of our inanimate environment react on electric current?
With which senses do we perceive electric current?
How does electric current influence our behaviour and physiological condition?
And what does that mean for our living- and action space?
What does electric current make of us?
How do we react to those things?

traditional lace-making without tension!

Going further to couple electricity and materials, I found a technique to build a new antenna. The new textile should be more an embodied part of the body, no longer a technical piece of material. For this textile jewellery, I got some help from Schneeberg - Erzgebirge, where lace making is an old profession. The ‘Plauener lace’ comes from there.

better expression ? !

About the relationship between electric charges and electrified behaviour:

Is there a chance to perceive electric current and fields around us? Yes, but why does our behaviour depend on this? Can we integrate these energies, to use it in a more awareable way? The project forms electricity in audio, and reactive visual patterns.

Its imaginable that there are more possibilities and warranty for those experiments, rely on a larger capacities of energy in aetherspace. Through charging textile structures I translated the invisible media to animate people more directly ‘unter Strom’.
