20//Twenty.
 A digital residency in the virtual Stadtbad (2023)


The residency and exhibition project “20//Twenty”, organized by Stadtbad Kunstforum Brandenburg, brought together artists and scientists to explore the virtual Stadtbad as a cultural laboratory. This international and transdisciplinary project aimed to question the impact of a virtual space on artistic creation, mediation and perception.

Greg Scheirlinckx and Anneleen Swillen were invited to participate in this digital residency. From June to December 2023, they had the pleasure to collaborate with lux&auma, an experimental dance collective consisting of Carla Petzolt and Miriam Taschler.

Starting from Artificial Intelligems' Ornamutations, Carla and Miriam developed a choreography. Their dance movements were tracked through machine vision technology, which then animated the Ornamutations, resulting in an experimental dialogue between dancers, imagery and AI.

The three videos originating from this collaboration were displayed in the virtual Stadtbad swimming pool during the residency, accessible publicly online.
