For this year's , we bring you a few clips from Triggered by Motion taken in Seoul, South Korea. For one whole year, a camera trap set up by Seoul-based videographer Gitae Kim filmed a neighborhood park on the outskirts of a residential area in Seoul.

It’s surprising how much life the camera captured: Water deer (hydropotes inermis), as well as Weasels (Mustela sibirica) and even common raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides)! Perhaps the most interesting animal that was recorded by the camera trap is also the most ordinary one: the cat (Felis catus).

World Environment Day 2025 and its festivities are hosted by the Republic of Korea. This year’s core question is how we humans can tackle plastic pollution through collective action and collaboration.

Triggered by Motion is a video installation that brings together footage from 22 cameras around the globe to show the diversity of environments and animals on our planet. Thanks to all the wonderful researchers at Universität Zürich | University of Zurich and around the world who made Triggered by Motion possible.

The project was developed at the University of Zurich, where it was initiated by the Graduate Campus Program and is being carried on by the Art x Science Office Full credits and more information on the project can be found on our website https://triggeredbymotion.com/

At the end of April, a truly special event took place at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art in Noida, India, where two of our Art x Science pieces 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 and 𝗪𝐢𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐮𝐭 by Karoline Schreiber are currently on display. Together with Maya Tissafi, Swiss Ambassador to India and Bhutan, and Mrs. Kiran Nadar, more than 50 students and their teachers explored the fundamental questions of human involvement in extinction and habitat loss, as posed by the works.

This educational event was marked by inspiring encounters and a transformative dialogue. We are honored that Triggered by Motion and 𝗪𝐢𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐎𝐮𝐭 could be part of such a meaningful gathering – a day full of exchange and reflection with such wonderful guests!

The ongoing tour of both Art x Science pieces is possible thanks to the Embassy of Switzerland to India and Bhutan in partnership with the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art and The Habitats Trust.

Next stop: Kiran Nadar Museum of Art

As they continue their journey across Delhi and beyond, our two Art x Science pieces — 𝗪𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁 by Karoline Schreiber and 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 — will soon arrive at their next very exciting destination: the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art in Noida, India. Catch them on view from 19 April to 25 May, 2025!

In the video piece 𝗪𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁 the artist Karoline Schreibrer meticulously forms and erases shapes of extinct . A quiet, yet powerful gesture that — for one short moment — brings back the dead and thus reflects on humanity’s role in their extinction. Meanwhile, 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 invites visitors into an immersive video environment where lively but endangered animals appear within shrinking habitats, highlighting the urgent threat of habitat destruction. Through beautiful and vivid images, both works address fundamental questions of human responsibility in the and its consequences.

LAST CHANCE!

You can still SPOT THE SPOTS, our large-format memory game, until Saturday 21. April 2025 at THE MUSEUM in Ontario, Canada. In the wonderful exhibition GIRAFFE: A HEIGHTENED EXPERIENCE, the interactive Art x Science piece is surrounded by many fascinating exhibits and historical artifacts, giving a broad overview about this fascinating species.

SPOT THE SPOTS is inspired by non-invasive behavioral research on giraffes in Serengeti and Tarangire. It highlights the importance of preserving giraffes and their habitats as they face threats of extinction due to human activities. By introducing visitors to the use of pattern recognition software in giraffe research, which is now the norm, the installation demonstrates the challenges of identifying unique fur patterns manually and the pivotal role AI plays in wildlife preservation and biodiversity. With these advanced tools, animals no longer need to be captured or fitted with GPS trackers to collect individual data—a win for both science and animal wellbeing!

This project is a collaboration with Monica L. Bond, wildlife biologist and biodiversity advocate at the Universität Zürich, scenographer Sonja Koch, and graphic designer Meltem Kalayci. Concept and production by: Katharina Weikl , Head of the Art x Science Office - UZH Office at University of Zurich.

A big thank you to THE MUSEUM, Laurel Mckellar and Christina Borota for the wonderful collaboration!

After being part of thewell visited 16th edition of the India Art Fair, our two Art x Science pieces 𝗪𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁 by Karoline Schreiber and 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗠𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 will travel beyond Delhi to Gurugram, India. From today, 20th of March, until the 2nd of April 2025 they will be on display at the Ambience Mall, Gurgaon.

In the video piece 𝗪𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁 Karoline Schreiber meticulously forms and erases shapes of extinct and thus forms a comment on the human involvement in their disappearance. Triggered by Motion, a walk-in video installation, on the other hand concentrates on the threat of habitat loss and lets you meet very lively but endangered species around the world. Through beautiful and vivid images, both works address fundamental questions of human responsibility in the and its consequences.

RECAP INDIA ART FAIR Part 2
live performance and workshop

From a small mound of black sand at the center of the stage, Karoline Schreiber slowly and meticulously forms and erases figures and shapes of extinct species. First conceived as a video piece and now performed by the artist in front of a live audience at the 16th edition of the India Art Fair, the Art x Science piece “Wiping Out” underlines the major role humans play in the extinction of animal species.

Visitors were moreover invited to join Karoline Schreiber at a workshop, in which she elaborated on the animals behind the motifs, like the Pinta Giant-Tortoise or the Yangtze River Dolphin, both of which were directly driven to extinction by humans. This workshop was held at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art learning space, which also housed the video-performance of “Wiping Out” and the video installation “Triggered by Motion”.

We want to thank Indraneel Ghose and Tanima Maniktala from the Embassy of Switzerland to India and Bhutan and Lena Robra and Prajwala Ravikrishna from Swissnex in India for making this collaboration with Kiran Nadar Museum of Art and The Habitats Trust possible!

RECAP INDIA ART FAIR Part 1

We had the opportunity to showcase two Art x Science pieces dealing with animal extinction and habitat loss at the 16th edition of the India Art Fair . While Karoline Schreiber is reawakening extinct species in 𝗪𝗶𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗢𝘂𝘁 via broom and black sand, Triggered by Motion lets you meet very lively but endangered species around the world. Both pieces were shown at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art learning space, letting visitors discuss the threat human activity poses to biodiversity.

It was an absolute honor to welcome Maya Tissafi, of Switzerland to India and Bhutan, to our booth! Thank you for your interest in our work and the immensely important topics of climate change and biodiversity.

Special Thanks to Indraneel Ghose and Tanima Maniktala from the Embassy of Switzerland to India and Bhutan and Lena Robra and Prajwala Ravikrishna from Swissnex in India for all your work and for making this collaboration with Kiran Nadar Museum of Art and The Habitats Trust possible!

🌟 EXTENDED! 🌟
We are thrilled to announce that the Art x Science project SPOT THE SPOTS will remain on display until April 2025 at THEMUSEUM in Ontario, Canada! 🦒✨ The museum has extended their incredible exhibition GIRAFFE: A HEIGHTENED EXPERIENCE to give even more people the chance to learn about these tall and fascinating creatures! 🌍💡

SPOT THE SPOTS is a large-format memory game inspired by non-invasive behavioral research on giraffes in Serengeti and Tarangire. By introducing visitors to the use of pattern recognition software in giraffe research, which is now the norm, the installation demonstrates the challenges of identifying unique fur patterns manually and the pivotal role AI plays in wildlife preservation and biodiversity. 🤖🌿 With these advanced tools, animals no longer need to be captured or fitted with GPS trackers to collect individual data—a win for both science and animal wellbeing!

This project is a collaboration with Monica L. Bond, wildlife biologist and biodiversity advocate at Universität Zürich, scenographer Sonja Koch Szenografie, and graphic designer Meltem Kalayci. 🎨🦒 Concept and production by: Katharina Weikl, Head of the Art x Science Office at Universität Zürich.
