Collective project

3’17” 

interactive audio visual installation, 2024

Providing a meta comentary on contemporary art-science collaboration and artistic research, in a critical take on the overuse of buzzwords like “transdisciplinary” in art. Nine researchers, nine video artists, and three sound artists collaborate blindly, creating hybrid works, aiming to answer one question: what does collaboration mean today, especially in the art-science societal dialogue? Through a mix of sound art, video art, and podcasting, 3’17” sets out to explore these questions, placing the contributors in a weird experiment where they collaborate without what the others are doing. The result is a collection of hybrid works that capture the beauty and chaos of crossing boundaries - without relying on overhyped jargon. Each video work, sound piece, and podcast session follows the strict time frame of 3 minutes and 17 seconds, a nod to the digital age’s bite-sized content (also the average length of a song on Spotify).
