Since 2004, Linz Art University has offered an “Interface Cultures” master’s degree program in which students learn scientific and, above all, artistic ways of working with all possible—and impossible—forms of communication with machines and devices. From the very outset, this program founded by Christa Sommerer (AT) and Laurent Mignonneau (FR) has offered students the opportunity to showcase their work in conjunction with Ars Electronica and thereby to reach very large audiences.

Art and utility—not necessarily a harmonious pairing. An essential element of artistic freedom is the right to think up and make things that are at first glance totally useless. Designers and technologists are the ones who helpfully intervene in human-machine coexistence. But only artistic confrontations that break out of the confines of practical considerations produce what is truly unexpected and really new. The eminently useful useless is thus the driving force behind the development of the works featured in this exhibition by Linz Art University’s Interface Cultures program.
Instructors: Christa Sommerer (AT), Laurent Mignonneau (FR), Martin Kaltenbrunner (AT), Marlene Hochrieser (AT), Michaela Ortner (AT)

Universal interface board. This interface has many drivers and can be connected to one of the multiple type boards from Terasic like the DE1, DE0, DE0-nano and the CPLD MAX-II board.
This interface has also a 4x20 char LCD display, 6 extra buttom knobs, transistior output, powersupply from 7.5V to 5V and to 3.3V.

The goal of this design investigation is to encourage an exploration into the possibilities with interface by "intervening in an existing interface to reconfigure the condition of contact." The "condition of contact" being the space between two entities and the way they interact.
The space that lies between ourselves and the natural world is our very own perception. Those perceptions that we are peering through, as an interface, control what we see, what we think and how we relate to the world around us. I am attempting to alter and play with the way an individual may perceive a scenic spot, interjecting in the interface between our minds and the world.
More specifically I am encouraging the individual to consider the world as art, the brushstrokes of nature and the beauty that encompasses. The large, transparent, smart tablet sign allows the viewer to capture those brushstrokes in their own unique way then deliver their masterpiece as a virtual postcard.

Here's my washing, 4 buttons on the left, 3 controls poorly labeled. The buttons work as expected, but the other 3 controls work at random, their outcome is a bit like lotto, you really don't know what is going to happen. I think they tried to put 3 controls on this machine to make is simpler, worse still the setting are so close together on one dial it makes the machine very unusable. This machine drives me nuts. Next time you buy a washing machine dont be sold on features. Have a look at the controls, if you cannot figure it dont buy it. Look for simple controls hopefully with lights, my Fisher and Pykel washing machine has LED's to say what settings I have selected and how long the wash cycle will be. This way I know the machine I will do what I have told it.

I was attempting to bake banana bread the other day, but not being the baking type I didn't have any scales. That's when I noticed that on the inside of my pack of butter they had printed gradations in 25g intervals so you could measure the butter out yourself.
Now from a usability perspective this is a fantastic addition. I doubt it'll increase sales of Lurpak butter by a statistically notable amount which makes its existence even more impressive!
Did the board spend months deciding whether to add this in or not? did somebody in marketing sweat blood convincing their bosses this was a good idea? Maybe the designers just slipped it in themselves, hoping nobody would notice. However this came about I salute you, you buttery disciples of food usability.
