Art is what makes life more interesting than art.

Robert Filliou
  • On the 17th January 1.000.061 years ago "a man took a dry sponge and dropped it into a bucket of water. Who that man was is not important, he is dead, but art is alive." SystemKollektiv has come up with something special for a birthday party in 2024: We are remembering Fluxus artist Robert Filliou, the originator of this holiday, who had a dream to use it to connect all artists and the whole world of arts.

  • Not only is he listed as a featured artist in the Artificial Museum, we are also dedicating the new AR experience [ The Collective Scream ] to him, allowing visitors to interact with the artifact worldwide through making their voice heard. This is made possible by our new WebRTC integration.

  • With WebRTC, web browsers no longer only are able to retrieve data resources from backend servers, but also real-time information from other users' browsers. We use this real time communication tool, so that visitors can interact with each other inside the AR experience. In addition, we implemented physics into the scene, which allows objects to collide with the floor and other objects in the scene.

    These new features of the Artificial Museum were developed in the spirit of Robert Filliou, who proposed alternative value systems with his works and acknowledged the viewer as a co-creator of art.
