Elastic Metric System
To facilitate the sociocultural transformation towards a culture with an enhanced sensorium, I implemented the New Elastic Metric System on an arbitrary basis as an intervention in public spaces such as cultural institutions and border areas.
Exhibition at Articulate Space, Sydney, Dec 2019 and Jan 2020. My comment on the current situation with the burning fires, water pipes that are blocked and deadlocked channels of thinking and communication – not only in Australia but also in the rest of this world. However, there are not enough plungers. People interacted with the plungers and moved them around in the gallery. Images by Ella Dreyfuss and Sue Callanan.
Crossing the borders of the three nations Finland, Norway and Sweden.
Yesterday my wonderful friend Andräa Schmidti Zeidler died after 3 years of fighting. So she also crossed a border.
Missing her badly, but happy as I believe she is nearby with me here.
In memory of the disordered zero point of Clandulla State Forest gallery

Happy to exhibit my work at Articulate’s progressive Ferret show (13.02.-26.02.2018) in Sydney: Ferret Out Loopholes – stay offline for the day without TV, email or social media. Unfollow and unfriend. Declutter dependencies. Shift priorities. Downsize consumption. Reconsider commitments. Learn new skills. Stop buying. Turn off all notifications. Focus on real life by keeping whole days unplanned.

Elastic Standard Metre
Unmeasuring the original metric system from 1795 located in Paris with the Elastic Standard Metre on a daily basis for one month. The measuring results varied each day. Video documentation, 2.30 min on Vimeo: Elastic Standard Metre
Organic Equilibrium
Transformed spirit levels with the vial embedded in organic materials to determine potential solutions outside of the binary paradigm (even / uneven) of conventional scientific rationality.
Viscous Timespacematter
Bergson’s concept of duration as an immeasurable flow and intuitive sense of time in contrast to mechanized clock-time was the basis of several experiments about time. Revamped time keepers literally softened the rigidity of ordered time. Video documentation, 2.40 min on Vimeo:
