1.Am Kotti:

Am Kotti is a five minute film that shows a 3d model of the Kottbus- ser Tor square in Kreuzberg, Berlin. The model is build up using a collection of pictures taken on the square. The photographers are unknown in this model but all of the pictures are found on 4 dif- ferent kind of online image galleries. These galleries are Flickr, Picasa, Panoramio and Wikimedia and are labeled on the images by their logo’s.

While the movie plays the camera rotates around the model and by doing so pictures appear and disappear because of the direction and angle they are facing. Clusters of images can be found on se- veral spots and also elevation is visible. A simplified map of the square including it’s buildings and streets is the lowest layer on which the images are placed on. The film loops.


2.Toolkit for a Contemporary Protest:

The Toolkit for a Contemporary Protest is an interactive webpage with a collection of quotes and symbols used in counter cultures of the past and of the present. All the quotations are categorized and reveal the person who it is linked to. These quotes are cut up in pieces and each one resembles an A4 sheet. The different quotes each have their own appearance by using different fonts and sym- bols. These digital A4 sheets can be moved freely and reorganized and can be placed on a blank canvas.

There is an option to download all the individual sheets and print them, to recreate the digital composition in real life.
