In an interview with VernissageTV, media artist Mogens Jacobsen discusses his project Hørbar/Audiobar currently on view at ZKM. Similar to a jukebox, visitors may activate a selection of sounds samples by placing the appropriate bottle on the table. In a move away from the mouse/screen interface which dominated his computer-based work in the 1990s, Jacobsen began experimenting with tactile interactive projects such as Hørbar/Audiobar.
