Space Operations
Are you ready for clandestine space operations? Disguised as raccoons in astronaut suits, our agents have ventured far beyond the limits of the imaginable. The blueprints they brought back from the other side have been catapulted directly and unquestioningly into our festival reality using an oversized 3D printer!
Anachromorph
What happens when a microscope crashes into a telescope? They kaleidoscope. This 2.5-meter-long, immersive, and interactive kaleidoscope offers a fractal LED light show and the illusion of gigantic spheres. The visual patterns inside the mirrored chamber are in constant flux. In front of the kaleidoscope, a microscope invites festival visitors to experiment. The image from the microscope is projected into the kaleidoscope, creating a dynamic, interactive, and fractal visual experience.

Der KraWal
Thoughtfully, KraWal bobbed through the wet blue. Wal had to do something, something involving nonviolent resistance or something like that. No big uprisings or actions, he was already so big himself that it would only scare people. Instead, shake them up a little! Encourage them to play more! Take away their fear of the unknown! So it came to pass that KraWal built a device that was designed to do just that...
And lo and behold, THE AUTOMATIC MACHINE works and people are getting involved in its game. Full of joy, they are now completing the tasks that our fluffy friend has in store for them. And their actions are making waves...
