Estranged Body and Alternate Interfaces―Kinga Araya and Stelarc
Knowledge of the body as the reversible surface of social life and self-identity is the shared concern that brings the works of Kinga Araya and Stelarc into dialogue. In both cases the artist ardently pursues this knowledge through the use of prosthetic devices that create awkward new shapes and complex new sets of gestures.

F2F: New Media Art from Finland―Heidi Tikka, Teijo Pellinen, Laura Beloff + Maex Decker, Kristian Simolin, Hanna Haaslahti, Tuomo Tammenpää, Juha Huuskonen and Marita Liulia
Curated by Marko Tandefelt in collaboration with Bryn Jayes
As the datasphere becomes increasingly dense, many fear the loss of face-to-face communication and, along with it, much of what we think of as distinctively human. The exhibition F2F: New Media Art from Finland includes nine wired, participatory installations that explore the insistence of the human within the realm of the machine and the influence of the human-machine interface on our social selves.

Mid Air―Tegan Smith, Ken Gregory and Andrea Polli
For a moment a thing exists between two states, suspended. Lifted off the ground, it defies gravity. Placed in an arbitrarily measured space, it shifts its scale. En route between its source and its destination, it moves on airwaves or is telepresent. Mid Air is an exhibition of sculptural works that draw our attention to air as a medium of sound and vision, and as an elemental life force.

Wide―David Rokeby and Elizabeth vander Zaag
Wide is an exhibition angle that draws attention to the pervasiveness of hybrid practices and encourages their nomadic inclinations. It creates a temporary network that can be entered through any one of eighteen portal spaces. Travelling the city, encountering the situations that the exhibition comprises, the Wide audience follows a flexible circuit in which each concentrated moment rebounds back to the collecting question: What happens to the screen when its shards are everywhere?

Communication technologies and biotechnologies are the crucial tools recrafting our bodies.

– Gerburg Treusch-Dieter
