The Welcome Habitat was still, its glass corridors and synthetic gardens bathed in the pale glow of artificial dawn. For years, it had promised safety—a refuge from the unraveling world outside. Its climate was always perfect, its pathways immaculate, its air recycled to feel crisp and pure. But now, the hum of the Visitors resonated through its hollow expanse, seeping into walls and minds alike.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thevisitors.jeron.org/the-time-fold">https://thevisitors.jeron.org</a>

Within this artistic enactment, the concept of 'worldmaking' serves as a guiding framework, fostering the creation of a plethora of imaginative scenarios that embrace a diversity of perspectives. Rooted in the ethos of embracing ambiguity, discomfort, and the spaces where knowledge remains elusive, the project challenges conventional notions.

A fish elevation technician is a member of an alien civilization who abducts fishes at night. S/He impregnates the fishes with advanced technology. When a fish is impregnated by an elevation technician after its abduction, the technician remains motionless, but begins to shiver as soon as a new fish appears.<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://thevisitors.jeron.org/a-elevation-technican">https://thevisitors.jeron.org/a-elevation-technican</a>

This piece imagines an underwater infrastructural ecology beyond the user-device binary of the early 21st century. Algae, humans, e-waste material, and surrounding species have evolved to learn a shared medium of communication. They mutually power, use, and embody the network-habitat. Information flows across an Indra’s net of neurotransmitter-like sites, a mechanism which depends on and gradually deepens the connectivity of all participating organisms.

Nothingness, they say, is their product. An intangible concept, a paradoxical notion, it is simultaneously the most elusive and sought-after commodity in the cosmos. In this age of boundless knowledge and limitless possibilities, it is the realm of Nothingness that intrigues and captivates the minds of the visitors.

Drawing from Berghain and traditional Greek folk elements, this object bridges past and present. It evokes the transformative era of Isherwood’s "Goodbye to Berlin," later adapted into “Cabaret,” celebrating Berlin’s enduring artistic energy. The title honors the Greek Gastarbeiter of the 1960s, whose journeys of hope and identity mirror those of today’s Greek immigrants in Berlin.

Welcome to cabaret, Gastarbeiter!

This object reimagines the myth of "The Rapture of Europe".Here, Europe is not seduced, raped, or raptured. Instead, she is portrayed as a powerful, independent woman on her own journey to freedom, escaping a hostile homeland. However, this raises the question: Is she truly independent, or just a "pick me" Girlboss? The term "Girlboss," once seen as empowering, has been, criticized for promoting a toxic, capitalistic culture. So, is the Girlboss girlbossing—or, in this case, is Europe europing?

Closed-Circuit Yiayia contrasts the tension between surveillance and solidarity. Underpaid Balkan workers in German digital sweatshops train algorithms that monitor us, while they themselves are closely watched. Meanwhile, the Greek Yiayia (grandma), often likened to a CCTV camera in memes, embodies a more communal gaze—perhaps not gossip, but a symbol of community and solidarity.

Támata are small golden plaques that are placed by people beside images of saints in Greek Orthodox churches. Táma (singular) / Támata (plural), translate to promise or promises, respectively. On Támata one can see engraved different body parts, such as legs or eyes. Thusly, the dedication of these objects to God or a certain saint, secures the divine intervention that will guide and protect the body part depicted on them.

Geo reportages about apes, their intelligence, vulnerability and ultimately hopeless situation in nature, form a popular subgenre on the subject of last resorts, jungles and conservation. At the same time, they are a popular genre in cinema history with dystopian traits and contribute to the humanization (appropriation) of animals in social media ("animal video"). In the exhibition, together with the visitors, they become exhausted living sculptures in space, seemingly observing each other.

Metaverse Petshop is an ironic and playable installation inspired by the relationship between information space and real space. There is a growing worldwide ban on the sale of caged pets in stores. Is it ethical to cage virtual creatures, which can be said to have originally been locked in a cage (called a monitor), for sale in stores? This work lets you purchase an ownership of a pet and release it from its cage using your smartphone.

It is a multi-part work: an AR, a video loop and a small series of fine art prints. The moving AR object depicts a standing metallic turquoise lion/ess moving and shaking its head, as if the figure wants to shake off the large metallic splinters that condense around its head.The work refers to the sleeping lion, a bronze sculpture by sculptor C. D. Rauch from 1828, which was placed on a grave monument by K.F. Schinkel for the Prussian General Scharnhorst at the Invalidenfriedhof in 1834.

In Search of Ideas (2021–2022) is a self-playing game exploring the Jonas Lund Token universe, following the 3D version of the artist walking around the virtual space looking for his animal friends. The path-finding AI that controls how the artist moves has been programmed to search for animals. The weather and time of day are synchronized with its current location. The animals are representatives and symbols of the JLT universe. Here we show the Penguin.

The Vulture Mothers is an augmented reality animated sculpture which is part of a larger multi-media project combining scientific and sociological research with animated symbols drawn from pre-Christian European mythology depicting animals as magical beings who both heal and harm their human neighbors. The Vulture Mothers project presents the species as primary actors of decay but also of re-birth and renewal.

Pandora’s Snatch is meant to be opened by the Prometheus statue in Rockefeller center, NYC. The project reframes the myth linking the two: When Prometheus gave fire to men on earth, Zeus was angry. In vengeance, Zeus created the first woman, and sent her with a jar full of trouble. But Pandora brought the cycles of life and death and the promise of a beginning wherever there is an end. Pandora is all-gifted, the first woman of earth and water, she-who-sends-up-gifts-and-vengeance.

The image of the Farmall tractor is iconic of American farming before the advent of Big Agriculture. This digital 3D model used in several Revolutions Generator WebAR apps was produced from a hand-held scan of the actual tractor that serviced the Brito Family Farm in Presidio, Texas. The tractor helped harvest crops along the U.S./Mexico border, and was used for other farm-related purposes, such as ferrying water tanks and inebriated community members.

"Optimist" is a commentary on&nbsp;attitudes towards environmental issues. Using mostly found materials, the delicate assemblage activates a digital portal to reveal an embodiment of the author's uneasiness with pollution conditions of major cities worldwide. The digital geometric figure deforms and nervously reacts to air quality data retrieved in real-time, an augmented layer to the calmness and child-like quality of its physical artwork counterpart, itself a by-product of wasted resources.&nbsp;

A3911.17 is one of a series of 3d scans by Dirk Paesmans processed over a 3 year span. The scans are of people in museums and galleries looking at art. In this scan, updated for Augmented Reality, a TV on the museum wall becomes a window into the world in which it is placed, creating a delightfully complex interplay between layers of mediation.

Augmented Archeology is the study of human history post current era through the excavation of pixelated reality augmentations and the analysis of GLB artefacts. Uncovered 21 PCE, the Tempelhofer Cybernetic Meadow is the primary site for Augmented Archeology Research and GLB Preservation. It has, since the discovery of the first OBJ Carving, unveiled artefacts and idols that tell a story of soon-to-be ancient digital culture that centers around shared memetic recognition and dankness.&nbsp;
