Sound Tossing is an alternative type of street art that uses sound as a medium of creative expression in a public space. As the streets belong to the people, the intention is to appeal to anyone who wants to shape their acoustic space. While street art has a rich history in terms of the formation of the urban landscape, mainly through the appropriation of wall space, Sound Tossing offers a way to play with urban aesthetics through filling space with unique acoustic input. It provides new ways of adding meaning to public spaces.

Sat/24/09 - Focus Day 1020
In large parts of the 2nd Viennese district, Offspaces, artist studios, project/event spaces and galleries will present themselves in a focus-day, p.e. THIS.PLAY, Glockengasse No9, LABfactory, MAGAZIN and the LUST gallery will exhibit in different ways on the topic “City as Interface”.
Radio Convoy is an acoustic experiment, initiated by Johannes Kubin and Marianne Lang.
A pirate radio station will transmit artistic audio recordings of ten to twenty artists (most of them from fine arts) via radio. The whole setting is mobile, which means not only the pirate station will travel through Vienna but moreover the whole audience will try to track the station, in order not to lose the signal.

The “protected” and well-known exhibition spaces are abandoned and the city as a whole is understood as a playing field - a place for projects, artistic interventions and urban new media arts. Discoursive city walks with experts in science, arts and everyday life” explores the venues and locations of the festival, as well as its surroundings with “walking as a method”.

Over two days we’ll walk through complete examples introducing the OpenFrameworks system. Together we’ll build a simple drawing application, do image processing, learn how to network an installation using OSC, and program interactivity using real time face detection. The second day will be an open coding jam where participants will be free to begin pursuing bigger projects. We’ll be there to debug and give guidance on tackling your ideas.
Art, music and aggression can be the same thing. After many generations of youth who were obsessed with music, the boundaries between art and music are dissolved. Many artists create works that transform their ultra ego into a rock star. However, the artists can also be a music addict by exploring their own fetish for Vinyl records and other collectables. The essence of the encore is ones need for more.

Underground City 21 Vienna (2009 – 2011) was developed to record snapshots, utopias and potentials in real and imaginary urban networks and to manifest their structures of communication and activities in installative and performative sculptures. The idea of public space, in all its sociocultural and political dimensions, as well as the imaginative borderlines between upper and under ground was discussed as part of a process of discourse within the fields of art.
