To celebrate four decades of explorations in art, media and technology, we are embarking on a year of archival and curatorial study of some of the most iconic works, publications and presentations from those 40 years. <\/p>\n<p>In the two weeks leading up to V2_\u2019s anniversary, we invited our community members to vote for their personal favorites in an online survey. The results can now be viewed in a slide show on our website and at our venue. It serves as a historical overview celebrating V2_\u2019s anniversary and kicking off our year of research into the most iconic works from 40 years of V2_: how they came into being, the artists behind them, and their current relevance.<\/p>\n<p>We thank everyone who participated in the survey and shared their nominations for the most iconic works in our archive. Your responses have been collected, and they encourage us in our ambition to celebrate V2_\u2019s first four decades by exploring this rich history together with our community. <\/p>\n<p>The Results (In Chronological Order):<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Sonic Youth &#8211; Live @ V2_ (1985)<br \/>\n&#8211; Laibach &#8211; Live @ V2_ (1985)<br \/>\n&#8211; Installation for the Unstable Media &#8211; Joke Brouwer &#038; Alex Adriaansens (1985)<br \/>\n&#8211; Manifest voor de Instabiele Media &#8211; V2_ (1986)<br \/>\n&#8211; Mechanical Sound Orchestra &#8211; Matt Heckert (1988)<br \/>\n&#8211; Ideofoon &#8211; Dick Raaijmakers (1988)<br \/>\n&#8211; The Legible City &#8211; Jeffrey Shaw (1989)<br \/>\n&#8211; Sound Creatures &#8211; Felix Hess (1989)<br \/>\n&#8211; Speaker Swinging &#8211; Gordon Monahan (1990)<br \/>\n&#8211; Intona &#8211; Dick Raaijmakers (1991)<br \/>\n&#8211; Songs From the Hands &#8211; Michel Walvisz (1992)<br \/>\n&#8211; Delusions of Self-Immolation &#8211; Erik Hobijn (1993)<br \/>\n&#8211; Amplified Body &#8211; Stelarc (1993)<br \/>\n&#8211; Theatre for the Hybrid Automata &#8211; Woody Vasulka (1994)<br \/>\n&#8211; Modell 5 &#8211; Granular~Synthesis (1995)<br \/>\n&#8211; Ping Body &#8211; Stelarc (1996)<br \/>\n&#8211; Oss\/**** &#8211; JODI (1998)<br \/>\n&#8211; Spatial Sounds &#8211; Marnix de Nijs &#038; Edwin van der Heide (1998)<br \/>\n&#8211; Body Movies &#8211; Rafael Lozano-Hemmer (2001)<br \/>\n&#8211; Run Motherfucker Run &#8211; Marnix de Nijs (2001)<br \/>\n&#8211; Can You See Me Now? &#8211; Blast Theory (2003)<br \/>\n&#8211; 100.000 Streets &#8211; Geert Mul (2003)<br \/>\n&#8211; Painstation &#8211; Volker Morave &#038; Tilman Reiff (2003)<br \/>\n&#8211; Perpetual Self-Disinfecting Machine &#8211; 0100101110101101.org (2004)<br \/>\n&#8211; Camera Lucida &#8211; Evelina Domnitch &#038; Dmitry Gelfand (2007)<br \/>\n&#8211; The Artvertiser &#8211; Julian Oliver (2008)<br \/>\n&#8211; The Toaster Project &#8211; Thomas Thwaites (2009)<br \/>\n&#8211; Evolving Spark Network &#8211; Edwin van der Heide (2010)<br \/>\n&#8211; Pseudomorphs &#8211; Anouk Wipprecht (2010)<br \/>\n&#8211; Exploded Views 2.0 &#8211; Marnix de Nijs (2011)<br \/>\n&#8211; Solace &#8211; Nicky Assmann (2011)<br \/>\n&#8211; Irrational Computing &#8211; Ralf Baecker (2011)<br \/>\n&#8211; Notion Motion &#8211; Olafur Eliasson (2012)<br \/>\n&#8211; The Iron Ring &#8211; Cecilia Jonsson (2013)<br \/>\n&#8211; The Physical Mind &#8211; Teun Vonk (2015)<br \/>\n&#8211; The Physical Rhythm Machine &#8211; Philip Vermeulen (2016)<br \/>\n&#8211; Emotions from an Algorithmic POV &#8211; Coralie Vogelaar (2018)<br \/>\n&#8211; Bacterbrain &#8211; Ivan Henriquez (2019)<br \/>\n&#8211; Pareidolia &#8211; Driessens &#038; Verstappen (2020)<br \/>\n&#8211; A Sense of Gravity &#8211; Teun Vonk (2020)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On September 4, 2021, V2_ turned 40.
