New media and technologies are a blessing – but also harbour risks. The moving image worlds can trigger intense experiences. They put us in extraordinary emotional and psychological states “Ecstatic mediality” describes two aspects here: on the one hand, the high effectiveness of media consumer products such as video games or beauty filters, which fuel emotional and social longings; on the other hand, the strategy of media art to confront us with media structures in an exaggerated form. With impressive examples – from avant-garde film and video art to computer animation and data engineering – the exhibition tells an alternative history of media art.
