ben's blog

I have recently been selected amongst 20 other international Artists to be part of a Science/Art residency in the Arctic Circle, on a Biological research station. I am already thinking about John Carpenter's THE THING and 30 days of night... brrrr-.

But in the meantime i'm looking for technical gears and clothes sponsors, because it is going to be quite cold there. I have already received support from various companies and brands, but if you like Art, Science, Exploration and Sustainable Design, you are welcome to contact me at hello(at)benipi.com. People in the solar energy business, i would enjoy to try your products in the arctic Circle!

Have a look at the Tumblr blog dedicated to this project on benipi.tumblr.com.

I will of course publish some photos and stories about this great and weird experience sooooon!

For the people who enjoyed the "lift experience" video and for those who haven't seen it yet... i'm currently working on an interactive documentary installation... and looking for an open-source programmer (pure data + dyne or ubuntu), french or swiss would be easier.
My artistic works and researchs deal with poetry, technology and social issues.
this new work is an open-source icon and a documentary about computer history.
