Mindflow was exposed within the framework of BSE (I am a member of the club called bayrisch salzburger elektronikkreis) at the exhibition “young culuture Salzburg”.
The interactive installation visualized circulation of the spoken word and the permanent flow of these impressions. Everything seems to be save, shielded and protected. Thoughts make their way and leave their tracks. There seems to be a major fight between communicationoverflow and communicationneed.


The flow of thinking. The circulation of things people are saying ore just thinking. Some information gets lost, some of it gets past on and the rest is probably slightly changed. And still - it seems to come back all the time. These thoughts fight their way from one to another and so on. Protected from the outside.

By sending a text message people could add their own thoughts to the world, which then where integrated in the system. Each text had its own moving parameters in the world and could of course get selected to get read. All these sended text messages in once where building the data visualization.
An other mode allowed the user to manipulate the position of the virtual camera.



The project was realized fully in vvvv.
