About the speakers:
The artist Agnes Meyer-Brandis, born 1973 in Aachen, Germany, studied mineralogy for a year, then transferred to the Art Academy in Maastricht, the Düsseldorf Art Academy and the Cologne Media Art Academy. Coming from a background of both sculpture and new media art, she explores the zone between fact and fiction. She is the founder of  the “Forschungsfloss FFUR / Research Raft “, an Institute for Art and subjective Science.
 
Based on an artistic experiment and performance in weightlessness conducted in cooperation with the German Space Agency DLR her work concluded in a series of realizations dedicated to gravity, flying, floating and falling, manifesting themselves in various installations and long term performances or experiments such as the “Moon Goose Colony” (since 2011, ongoing). For a more detailed description of her work, please go to her homepage: http://www.blubblubb.net/
