Art that creates space to sense possible futures
Immersive and participatory works for exhibitions, conferences, museums, festivals, public programmes and organisational events.
My futures experiences combine sound, moving image, performance, speculative design and facilitated reflection. Some are complete artworks available for presentation. Others can be adapted or commissioned around a place, question, dataset or event theme.
The same artistic practice can be encountered in different settings. The final format is chosen according to the purpose of the programme, the venue and the desired relationship with the audience.
Exhibition or installation: A work presented in a gallery, museum, festival or public space.
Creative moment for an event: A focused audiovisual or live experience designed to open, interrupt or close a programme. It can remain wordless or lead into a talk or facilitated reflection.
Experience + talk: An artwork or performance followed by a keynote, artist talk or discussion that places the experience in a wider context.
Experience + workshop: A sensory starting point followed by participatory futures work, reflection or creative exploration.
Tailored commission: A new sound-based, audiovisual or participatory work created around a chosen theme, place, research question or future scenario.
I am currently filming new videos for the upcoming years and new events.

It is a place where you can let go of expectations, strengthen your connection to yourself, and simply be. The facilitators of the Being With collective are: Auri Antinranta, Saara Jäämies, Outi Kinnunen, Inka Koutaniemi, and Eija Pimiä.

Soiva tuleva 2024
Auri Antinranta: Concept, visuals & audio & Marko Tanninen: Creative technologies
Soiva Tuleva takes visitors on a journey to the future, and the storytelling medium is sound art. "The future prototype is a combination of imagination and reality. In this prototype, research-based knowledge and nature recordings from the present meet imagined soundscapes from the future. Futures research helps us understand what might happen in the future, and future prototypes help us experiment and test these events in practice. The Soiva Tuleva exhibition presents different elements related to climate change in Finland, such as the forest, the built environment, extreme weather phenomena, and selected species.
