Accept All Cookies 🍪
by Elif Kalender

Accept All Cookies is an interactive installation that reimagines surveillance as a reactive presence, rather than a central, all-seeing eye.

Visitors are invited to “accept the cookies” by taking one, triggering sensors that activate the surveillance state. The work highlights how we constantly give away personal data online, often without realizing it.

Two moving head lights are placed at opposite ends of a corridor.

Phase 1 – The Search
As long as no one takes a cookie, the lights move randomly on the X and Y axes, scanning as if searching for their next subject.

Phase 2 – State of Surveillance
When someone reaches for a cookie, the sensors activate and the system locates the visitor. The lights immediately shift from passive search to active tracking. The visitor becomes the observed.

'To be childlike is admirable': The artists embracing their inner child
By Katherine Smyrk

Whether it's enormous puppets, interactive bunny installations or handmade ceramics, these artists are embracing joy, whimsy and silliness to help people connect to their inner child.

Summaery 2025 | This is (not) a Networking Event

We will probably soon reach the figure of 50 billion when we look at the things and objects that are connected to the Internet.

Who is actually communicating with whom in an ever-evolving world of networked objects and systems?

The exhibition explored playful, mysterious, imaginative, and ecological ways of dealing with things and objects that communicate, exchange information, and relate to each other.

Endrohr Apokalypse – solo exhibition at Kunstverein Ingolstadt.

Opening: 21 November 2025, 7 PM — with DJ Diskopeter
Venue: Kunstverein Ingolstadt, Galerie im Theater, Schlosslände 1, 85049 Ingolstadt
Exhibition period: 22 November 2025 – 18 January 2026

Within the brutalist architecture of the Stadttheater, the exhibition unfolds a scenario oscillating between sacrality and technical high-fidelity.

With site-specific works created especially for this setting, the exhibition explores the parallels between technology and theology.

The room’s seven supporting columns become carriers of a parallel shift between the Bamberg Apocalypse and the automotive city of Ingolstadt. seven tailpipes from the car tuning scene – from four-flow to duplex to Y-pipes – resound with the sounds of bodybuilders straining and lifting weights: a resonance chamber of strength, exhaustion, and faith in progress.
The works deal with technology as an effort to save effort. But they also refer to the efforts of the art and culture scene, which is reaching its limits in the face of budget cuts. As a result of the crisis in the automotive industry and reduced municipal funding, a cultural institution that was once a symbol of the city's spirit of upward momentum is coming to a standstill: after the exhibition, the Kunstverein's premises will remain closed until further notice.

The exhibition reflects on the self-inflicted consequences of modern hubris, the belief in progress, and the exhaustion of a society that produces its own revelations.
