Centering on canaries as companions in both past and present, the exhibition reflects on care, empathy, and control within human–animal coexistence. Through video installation, a digital bird-song trainer, and artistic research bridging biology, anthropology, and cultural studies, the works invite us to reconsider how we listen, learn, and relate across species and systems — between the natural and the technological. Gast Curators @_ereinhardt @fangts_ Curatorial Assistant @care.0 Becoming Future is a curatorial platform dedicated to expanding how we imagine art and technology. Through exhibitions and workshops, it highlights voices often overlooked in the tech-art discourse — women and artists from diverse backgrounds who challenge dominant techno-futures. Each chapter explores new forms of coexistence between humans, nature, and intelligent machines — rethinking progress through care, collaboration, and imagination.

On August 20–21, our Design & Computation studio at TU Berlin hosted the workshop Elastic Electronic: soft sensors, led by Fang Tsai as part of the inkuele program. Across two days, students explored the world of e-textiles, working with conductive threads, yarns, and fabrics to create soft sensors. These sensors translate touch, pressure, and stretch into dynamic signals, allowing body movements and poses to be mapped to sound. Beginning with the basics of electricity and resistance, participants then sewed or knitted their own textile-based interfaces and connected them to a custom Max/MSP patch developed by Prof. Berit Greinke and Federico Visi within the Wearable Computing research program at UdK Berlin. The result was a hands-on encounter where fabric became responsive, movement gained sonic form, and gestures revealed new dimensions of interaction. The workshop was open to all students, regardless of prior technical knowledge, and created a space for experimentation, collaboration, and curiosity. A big thank you to everyone who joined and contributed to the energy in the studio. This event was made possible by Innovations for Artistic Teaching of Stiftung Innovation in der Hochschullehre and UdK Berlin.

Absolute Approximation - Exhibition part of 48hr Neukölln Festival @48stundennk thank you all for visiting, and especially thanks for all the artists who trust us with their art pieces. We are happy to share with you that we had a great and eventful exhibition weekend. Over the three days, we estimate around 400 visitors, including festival attendees, the community of the church and nearby residents. With such a diverse audience, we are glad to have found throughout positive resonance and a high length of stay even for such complex topics as the ones that “Absolute Approximation” touched on. Even the priests came to see the works and a baptism and confirmation took place on Sunday in the middle of the exhibition. The exhibition comes to an end now, but we are sure that it will lead us somewhere new in the future. - Artists Aaron Koblin @aaronkoblin Maria Mavropoulou @maria.mavropoulou Damjanski @d.a.m.j.a.n.s.k.i Sebastian Schmieg @sebastianschmieg Dawoon Park @d4w8n Curators Erik Anton Reinhardt @_ereinhardt Fang Tsai @fangts_ Tim Kunt @breeding.pool Photo credit @_ereinhardt

- Absolute Approximation, 48h Neukölln Exhibition, Magdalenenkirche Rixdorf Berlin - The prevailing understanding of truth today is nothing other than a derivative concept of correctness. We use the terms right and true, wrong and untrue almost synonymously. Truth appears as a falsifiable correspondence of a statement with factual reality. Yet, as it often seems to us, correct facts frequently appear to be mutually in- compatible. Truth is more than the totality of individual correct facts. It is emergent. Everything that is “unconcealed” is true; thus what is right is true, but not everything true is right. Truth is “unconcealment” (alētheia), i.e. the revealing or making visible of being. Art is a way of “unconcealment” in that it opens the view of being, allowing what was previously hidden to become visible: The artist disrupts habitual ways of seeing, creates new perspectives and connections, and thus enables us to experience reality in a way that goes beyond mere correctness. By stripping the familiar of its self-evidence, we can elicit the “unconcealment” of being and evoke that moment of truth in which something suddenly appears in its true essence. Date 27th June (Fri), 19:00 - 21:00 28th June (Sat), 12:00 - 18:00 29th June (Sun), 12:00 - 18:00 Location Magdalenenkirche - Ev.

HYBRID RITUALS With the performance "Hybrid Rituals", InKüLe is part of the event "An Experimental Ecology. Art practice in dialogue between disciplines at the UdK Berlin" in UNI.T (Theater of the UdK Berlin) as part of the 50th anniversary of the UdK Berlin. The performance invites the audience to experience the interplay of sound, light and movement, controlled by innovative technologies that react to proximity and touch. This creates a dynamic dialogue between physical and digital spaces, based on the artistic methodologies and interfaces developed by InKüLe. Through audiovisual interactions, projection mapping and motion tracking, the stage becomes a hybrid space in which materiality, images and sounds merge. The scenario between performance and installation offers an immersive experience that the audience can actively help shape. Hybrid Rituals Performance at the event "An Experimental Ecology. Art Practice in Dialogue between Disciplines at the UdK Berlin" February 8th at UNI.T - Theater of the UdK Berlin, Fasanenstr. 1 B, 10623 Berlin A production and Concept developed by InKüle (Innovationen für die künstlerische Lehre) Dance and Choreo by Javier Blanco photos: Universität der Künste Berlin, Foto: Nikolaus Brade

Street View exhibition Part of 48 hours Neukölln 2024, 6 artists showing their projects in the beautiful Kiezkapelle Neukölln, tomorrow the 30. June is the last day to visit! Opening time: 11-19:00 We look forward to seeing you there! Location: Kiezkapelle, Hermanstraße 102 (Google Map) Vernissage: Fri 28.6.2024, 6:00pm-9:00pm Opening Time: Sat & Sun 29-30.6.2024, 11:00am-7:00pm Artists: Anaïs Lian Nyffeler André Santos Martins Jens Tiemann Katharina Aae Manja Ebert Özcan Ertek Curators: Erik Anton Reinhardt Fang Tsai The exhibition “Street View“ shows the city in the sense of its ordinary. Events or objects that seem mundane and repetitive that they fade into the background of our consciousness as quiet. Like a queue, authorities on a work break, staircases that connect apartments, a pothole to a manhole. Nonetheless, it seems so much more than that: when does waiting in line worth it? Is there authority above authority? Is the stairwell private or public space? Are holes the fear of the unknown? These street views we captured are the routines, the self-repeating patterns of a mechanism under the greater harmony, a seemingly universalised law of nature in which everything was as it always has been and always will be. Yet, we forget that the same view can carry different meanings. Exhibition “Street View” engages people to look into the ordinary urban view with an exhibition structure built with temporary construction site material to immerse the questions we raised into a made-up construction site scene. @anaisnyffeler @andre_santosmartins @_ereinhardt @fangts_ @jenstiemann @katharina_aae @manjaebert @ozcanertek @groundless.group @48stundennk Poster series designed by Erik Anton Reinhardt

Freitag 28.06.24. 6pm -9pm Samstag & Sonntag 29.-30.06.24 11am - 7pm Die Ausstellung „Street View“ zeigt die Stadt im Sinne ihrer Alltäglichkeit. Ereignisse oder Objekte, die banal und repetitiv erscheinen, dass sie in den Hintergrund unseres Bewusstseins als ruhig verblassen. Wie eine Warteschlange, Behörden in einer Arbeitspause, Treppen, die Wohnungen miteinander verbinden, ein Schlagloch in einem Gully. Und doch scheint es so viel mehr zu sein: Wann lohnt es sich, in einer Schlange zu warten? Gibt es eine Behörde über der Behörde? Ist das Treppenhaus privater oder öffentlicher Raum? Sind Löcher die Angst vor dem Unbekannten? Diese Straßenansichten, die wir eingefangen haben, sind die Routinen, die sich selbst wiederholenden Muster eines Mechanismus unter der größeren Harmonie, einem scheinbar universalisierten Naturgesetz, in dem alles so war, wie es immer war und immer sein wird. Dabei vergessen wir, dass ein und dieselbe Ansicht eine andere Bedeutung haben kann. Die Ausstellung „Street View“ regt die Menschen dazu an, den gewöhnlichen Blick auf die Stadt mit einer Ausstellungsstruktur zu betrachten, die mit temporärem Baustellenmaterial gebaut wurde, um die von uns aufgeworfenen Fragen in eine erfundene Baustellenszene einzutauchen.
