Just behind the terrace stands a lonely server rack on the lawn. streaming blueprint [emotionalized] stands out with its minimal metal structure from the idyllic green space with its old trees. Inside the technological growth structure, a blue-transparent PVC sheet is stretched between spreader bars, UV-printed with tactile emojis. (Chat) language creates reality – but who or what decides how we communicate? Pondorf is bringing this foreign object to the summer pool as an offer: but can the sculpture enrich everyday life at the pool, as the internet always promises? What feelings are being referenced here – and by whom? The dopamine release after likes and comments? And who, then, is the parasite here: the artwork in the outdoor pool, or perhaps the bathers themselves, when they post pictures of it or hang their swimsuits to dry on the digital apparition?
