On this occasion, the experts interviewed are Erkki Huhtamo, Andreas Broeckmann (artistic director of Transmediale), Alex Galloway, Jonah Brucker-Cohen, David Rokeby, and Marc Downie.

These experts discuss issues such as the effects of software on our daily lives, the development of media archaeology, surveillance technology in artistic projects, physical toy interfaces linked to surveillance software, connected virtual reality communities and the creation of sound by virtual reality creatures.

The interviews and videos, made by Pau Alsina, Alba Colombo and Pau Waelder, will remain on Artnodes permanently. Artnodes usually publishes documents to inspire theoretical reflection on or historical study of this field of interdisciplinary creativity.
