ABOUT THE MS-FUSION A.I.R.

Optimized for inland navigation, the MS-FUSION offers a platform to artists and scientists for trips on the Danube to carry out research in this cultural area and to implement projects in the context of artistic research. It works as a floating studio, as a tool for research, field studies and to realize art projects on the Danube.

Furthermore, the MS-FUSION functions as a floating medium, because the extraordinary aesthetics attract attention and thereby establish its own form of communication. This creates serendipity and opens an alternative access to hidden Danube cultures. On board there will be creative people from the visual arts, performance, media arts, authors and scientists. In this way the river becomes a connecting stream and not a dividing boundary.
