	Scientists have claimed that ‘gait recognition’ can determine an individual body based on its movement with 94% accuracy. While the use of gait recognition technologies for surveillance is an extreme example, it opens up a conversation about how individual body movements are interpreted and used in various fields. ‘Collective Gait’ is an interactive, process oriented work, which uses the application of gait recognition as a starting point to unfold the complexity behind human motion capture technologies.

	Located close to the shores of a politically strategic territory, and placed in the middle of digital warfare, this island carries aggressive and charged news about drones, tankers, oil, weaponry, rivalry, deceptive claims, and false flag operations. The Sunburned Land is a fictive portrayal of an actual location and its occurring events.

	The work began when Nazanin was developing a script for a new game environment and travelled to Iran to film and scan the landscapes there. While she was filming, new concerns were raised about the Hormoz Strait and its role in escalating political tensions between Iran and the West. The perception of potential violence was being shaped through the news, in digital media, and tweet wars. However, the ‘physicality’ of the location remained mostly unknown to the audience. Therefore, Nazanin travelled to the politically strategic Qeshm and Hormoz islands and tried to capture the natural landscape by filming and photographing it with a drone.

	In order to play with the tension between fiction and reality, Nazanin combines 3D scanning, 3D modeling, and real footage to recreate the island. This way of working is the result of prohibitions that are in place at the Qeshm and Hormoz islands to freely fly a drone and use laser scanners for aerial documentation. By simulating the hidden characteristics of this geographic location, the work engages the audience in a critical exploration of the political reality of the Hormoz Strait. It allows us to move within the slippery space between fiction and non-fiction—questioning our trust in perceptions that are shaped in the absence of bodily experiences.

	===ROCK REPO===		===ROCK REPO===
			by [[The Underground Division]] (Helen Pritchard, Jara Rocha, Femke Snelting)

	The ROCK REPO is a device built by a team of trans*feminist post-normal scientists for thinking with rocks. Managing rock slope instabilities by LiDAR, optimising strata modelling for fracking, rendering cavities in 3D for gaming, and algorithmically smoothed rock shaders are all deposited in the REPO. The REPO inquires into these banal, exquisite, kitsch, static, carbonivourous figurations to fracture the normative 3D processes of geocomputation and their crushing exploitations and extractions. Through making a collection of ROCKS, The Underground Division gets close to particular ROCKS and their unstable stories, as told through scientific and technological practice. Recognising that rocks have their own lively forces, the unruly team studies rocks’ 3D imaginings, the softwares and hardwares that rocks intervene on and builds new glossaries on the go. Their studies operate as a chipping away at what limits the resistant and destructive capacities of rocks.

	In his work, Thomas Rustemeyer deals with forms of representation and their political and social implications, with a focus on spatial and urban issues. His works span different disciplines and media ranging from exhibition, scenography, publication, and drawing. For BodyBuilding, Hackers & Designers invited Thomas to collaborate on making a translation of the work of H&D into a spatial design.

			by Hackers & Designers

	Hackers & Designers (H&D) is an interdisciplinary collective ‘body’ that functions as a network, an infrastructure, a host, and a facilitator for makers who come from different disciplines (art, design, computer programming). By initiating a diverse range of encounters that involve hands-on making, H&D aims to create opportunities for makers to meet and collaborate. H&D also makes educational resources available to the public by documenting and publishing tools, technologies and processes that are used and produced during workshops.
