A particular potential lies in the material properties in terms of light permeability and impermeability, color brilliance, as well as the tactile qualities.<\/p>\n<p>In the collaborative work between textile and virtual surface emerged new possibilites and approaches to support, but also to disrupt the other field. Whether as installation, interface or media room elements: Textile surfaces with media content are opening total new perspectives.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-660\" src=\"https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Tale-on-Textile_03\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03-180x101.jpg 180w, https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03-380x213.jpg 380w, https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03-120x67.jpg 120w, https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/08\/Tale-on-Textile_03.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The content is a 10 minute loop which follows the idea of a livecycle of a fictive organism. Over different cycles the narrative story wins presence and space. It starts with a death phase with almost no noticeable movements and changes. Then the life slowly starts spreading, takes over the whole sculpture.At a certain point a virus breaks out that increases the life in a unnatural way and finally leads to an overkill. Then the story begins again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lorenzpotthast.de\/old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/Tale-on-Textile_04.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\"
