LIMBO is a one-shot journey through landscape perceptions in a digital and abstract space. Fluctuations between micro and macro perspectives relate to human relationships with nature and the planet. Transitions in our environment are slow to our perception but steady and hard to reverse. By using extreme slowness we not only wanted to refer to this fact but also put contrast to the fast-moving ads and imperatives we are surrounded by in our everyday (media) life. Designed as a large-scale installation, the dimensions of the projections alongside with explorations of binaural beatings and specific frequency spectrums come together as a physical experience.

1. SOUND: Good headphones or monitor speakers are mandatory for getting the best experience possible and the full sound spectrum.
2. VIDEO: Stream it in the best quality in full-screen-mode, on a (big) screen, or even a projector.
