Digital Decoding: digitality as subject and method

Emma Wood

An interdisciplinary exhibition from five Berlin-based artists

transmediale e.V. - festival for art & digital culture berlin

<p><em><em>Digital Decoding</em></em> is a collaborative seven-day research-driven exhibition by five female artists and designers from sound, object, and textile design investigating how digital technologies both conceal and reveal the material realities, labour, and power structures they depend upon. Through approaches spanning AI voice recognition, human–machine co-creation, virtual environments, heritage craft, and digital infrastructures, the project asks: <strong><strong>How can artistic research with digital technologies expose the hidden materialities, practices, and biases that digitality itself obscures?</strong></strong></p><p>Taking place over one week in April 2026, and following a four-month development period, the exhibition invites audiences to engage with these artistic investigations. Bringing together Mittelbau artists from the Universität der Künste Berlin, weißensee kunsthochschule berlin and Hochschule für Musik Hanns Eisler Berlin, <em><em>Digital Decoding</em></em> is a unique opportunity to highlight the value of cross-institutional and cross-disciplinary artistic research in shaping critical perspectives on contemporary technological culture.</p><h4>Featured artists:</h4><ul><li><a href="https://www.andakryeziu.com" title="https://www.andakryeziu.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Anda Kryeziu</a></li><li><a href="https://www.joanaschmitz.com" title="https://www.joanaschmitz.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Joana Schmitz</a></li><li><a href="https://www.nayelivega.com" title="https://www.nayelivega.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Nayeli Vega Vargas</a></li><li><a href="https://www.julia-wolf.com" title="https://www.julia-wolf.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Julia Wolf</a></li><li><a href="https://www.wovenbywood.com" title="https://www.wovenbywood.com" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Emma Wood</a></li></ul><h4>Vernissage:</h4><p>14 April 2026, 18:00 - 22:00</p><h4>Opening hours:</h4><p>15 - 21 April 2026, 11:00 - 20:00</p>
