description : “(Remote) Mind - The Strangers are still me"
Personality and identity is seen on the background of the age of digital reproduction/manipulation and the central issue in today's science: genetic modifications.
A 3D scanner was used at Eastman Dental Institute for Oral Health Care Sciences University College London for capturing face data. Programmed average heads were rendered by using the database of the Institute. The faces you see, do not exist like this for real (...what is real?) The data of the face scans has just been used like a surface, modelled onto someone else's scull (the artists' sculls).

Prof. Peter Hammond, Programming: Tim J. Hutton,UCL.

Barbara Rauch is research fellow and part-time Ph.D. student at
Chelsea College of Art & Design, University of the Arts London. Research
interest: hyper-associative thought in virtual spaces, including actual dreaming.

Georg Muehleck is a freelance artist based in Portvasgo, Scotland, London, UK and Toronto, Canada. His work combines cellular automata simulations, memory research, genetics and the arts.

Karin Krog lives in Oslo, Norway and is perhaps Norway's leading jazz singer and certainly its most idiomatic. She is a unique song artist with a great international reputation possessing her own recognizable style and voice. Her constant creative approach towards contemporary jazz has
never been bound by tradition, even though her music bears a deep respect for its forms. Karin is equally at home with jazz standards, blues or electronic experimental techniques.
