Calling Aphrodite Tickets

Calling Aphrodite is the art project of Austrian multimedia artist Maria Dirneder, affiliated with Interface Cultures at Kunstuniversität Linz. The project visualizes human breath as bubbles in water using breath sensors, creating immersive, data-informed installations that blend biology, technology, and sculpture. Dirneder’s practice sits at the intersection of performance, interactive media, and contemporary art, exploring how intangible breath can become tangible through visualization.

As a prominent figure within Linz’s vibrant digital art scene, Dirneder’s work travels through major exhibitions and campus showcases, including Ars Electronica and its NOUS Campus programs. Calling Aphrodite invites audiences to experience breath as a shared, visible phenomenon, prompting reflection on presence, air, and the spaces between living bodies.

Upcoming appearances of Calling Aphrodite focus on campus and festival environments, with recent works such as On the breathing wings of a horse (2024) continuing to explore breath, motion, and environmental interaction. While the project has no discography in the traditional music sense, it remains a dynamic installation practice with new iterations and site-specific adaptations. For those following contemporary media art, Calling Aphrodite offers a compelling example of sensor-based performance and installation culture in Austria and beyond.

Social connectivity for the project is primarily through official project pages and institutional channels. While dedicated public social handles for Calling Aphrodite or Maria Dirneder aren’t publicly listed, you can engage with the project via university-linked and festival-related pages and the Ars Electronica platform's event listings.
