Message in the Sky is an online crowd-sourced public participatory project that pools together the hopes and dreams of our time. The goal of the project is to map the landscape of collective human aspiration from people in different geographic locations living with different circumstances. The scale and time span of the project significantly expands research in emerging fields of design that integrates big data to engage social change. In the presence of increasing global challenges in conflict resolution, this project represents a forward-thinking engine that generates a time capsule of the evolution of aspirations globally.- Date

jdyoung@ucdavis.edu, http://jiayiyoung.net/
This project, with its multiple phases, transforms the 2016 United States Presidential Election Twitter data into a large-scale installation to probe the question of how social media assumes form and transforms the shaping of the future of a nation. The installation recounts Twitter hashtag activity on the topic from February 2016 through the election date of November 8, 2016. By identifying major Twitter influencers in this election period, uncovering the propagation patterns within the data, and differentiating human tweets from AI tweets, the installation exposes the inner mechanisms of a world where true human tweets and tweets generated by Twitter Bots mutually influence each other and propagate inseparably as a combined voice.- Date

Interactive Installation “Better Hands”
Wallace Lages, Pablo Gobira, Francisco Marinho / Brazil
“Better Hands” is an interactive installation that explores the limits and the role of tools in the creative process. It questions the authority by bringing the interface closer to the body, while giving to it its own agency. This work invites us to reflect on the effect of modern technology on the basic act of creation and whether we control or are defined by it.

The artist talk, Translational Spaces, by Santiago Tavera presents his latest creative-research on the construction of interactive and immersive digital architectural environments. The use of digital media presents the potential to simulate a state of disembodiment (elasticity, alteration, translation) for viewers and participants. Tavera investigates the potential of digital technologies to create virtual environments that alter our thresholds of perception.- Date

Instable Landscapes: Visual Autobiographies in real-time performances
Georgina Montoya Vargas / Colombia
University of Quindío - Technological University of Pereira
gmontoya@uniquindio.edu.co, www.georginamontoya.net
Research synthesizes the explorations and processes developed from the research—artistic creation and its link with design through a common theme: the phenomenon of audio-visual creation in real time and its connection with the body. This theme will be approached through visual autobiographies and the intimacy with objects as carriers of memories, sensations, and atmospheres that not only constitute or form part of an epoch, but also configure individual forms of inhabiting the world.- Date
