 +The biological evolution correlates with the development of information. In the second nature the world divided with the consciousness into a real and imaginary part of information. The third nature: With the digital revolution, imaginary information loses its importance.

-Ships are islands, they offer autonomous structures. That's why we work a lot on ships. We have been working on ways to reflect the Internet for several years. In order to get an observer status on this powerful information network you have to be able to disconnect yourself from the system. We try that with our own autonomous information network. The first experiments started in 2006. [[ns2.kunstlabor.at/druck/abt11.pdf|2011 Armin Medosch wrote a text about it]]. In 2016 we extended our experiments with SlowScanTv from our ship in Linz. From this followed the information network [[7067.stwst.at | "7067 -Its not a Test"]]. Based on image transfers, an alternative information network was created. Due to technical and content developments, however, bandwidth of the information network has been further reduced in order to achieve higher ranges.+Ships are islands, they offer autonomous structures.

-==== Labs and Art ==== 
- 
-** A context that influenced the concept of contemporary art in the last two decades of the last century. ** 
-  
-Art comes from not knowing, explore, try and learn. The same applies to laboratories. Both concepts contain new ideas and utopias. This was the idea of New Media Art. 
- 
-With this concepts were created in the "New Context". In the history of the Stadtwerkstatt this connection appeared on different STWST-TV projects see http://archiv.stwst.at. The term was used by Wilder Efeu 1991, Parallelraumdisplay 1996, Clickscape 1997 u.v.a. used. The Infolab of Stadtwerkstatt is also closely related to others the labaratories http://servus.at (1996), http://vbs.at (1995), http://kunstlabor.at (1992) and the "Laboratory for Visual Media "(1989) at the University of Applied Arts (Peter Weibel). 
- 
-But already in the early 1980s the Stadtwerkstatt was working on the process-oriented art in which the change, the development of the artwork was part of the concept. 
- 
-The work-up of this art context in which the laboratory as a process is / was part of the artwork has / was dedicated to our colleague and friend Armin Medosch. The book was published by MIT-PRESS.

Book presentation in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vd3lEQz58po|New York 2016]]. The book can also be obtained through the STWST.
