Interactive Interfaces: Installations produced at the ZKM | IMA

This article discusses the installations that have been produced at the ZKM vertical bar Institute for Music and Acoustics since 1997. The first part of the article will present common characteristics of these installations. The primary quality the installations share is their orientation towards interactivity. Some installations additionally distinguish themselves through their relationship to (computer) games, for example, while others are characterised by their suitability for use as didactic tools. The second part of the article will describe the installations individually and highlight their unique features.
