Aquateque

Aquateque is a short film and multimedia installation exploring the river Ruhr through a variety of new media technologies.

The diverse ecosystem of the surrounding is captured through audio, visual and 3d modelling tools and transformed into a generative augmented space.
The project explores themes such as digital material ecology and neural networks as artistic tools to dream about alternative and fantastical worlds in which nature, machines and humans collide.
