Margareta Hesse's No barrier is one of my favourites, and luckily I've had a chance to see it several times, since it seems to be everyone else's favourite as well. The idea is simple: the laser shuts down as soon as something / someone hits it, making the artwork both safe and a metaphor of borders and limits being often quite imaginary (the latter being my interpretation). Seen at Re.Light festival in Regensburg.

Well here's some conceptual light art for you!

In Jason Dodge's 'Darkness falls on Dobeinitz 18, 9074 Dobeinitz, Austria', we see every little thing that produces light in a house in – you guessed it – Dobeinitz area, Austria. Even if there is not light as a material in the piece, light is very much present in a thematic level. I'm sure I'll have an interesting conversation with a dear colleague about this artwork being light art or not.

This was the third time I saw Jeremy Shaw's Phase Shifting Index, and I'm sure there will be more. Compelling, clear idea and a proper mayhem in the end. What's not to like?

Detlef Hartung's piece in Media Art Days in Videbæk was based on letters, as his works often are, and the whiteness of the enclosed yard made it enjoyable sharp.

Another Thesmallest Vallila piece that is going places: Jere Suontausta's Starring Dust had a new iteration in Media Art Days in Videbæk. This time the starring dust particle was picked from Vestjyllands Kunstpavillon, as is the idea of this site specific piece, then filmed through microscope, the film showed on a monitor as close to the original dust particle's site, and finally the particle returned.

Vincent Westra's piece has been presented before elsewhere, but i do think that the trees around it were an integral part of the artwork, catching the flicker of the lighthouselike beam turning in the forest.
Seen at Media Art Days, Videbæk.
