The design research of Marie Akoury is based on her master thesis Copula, which was developed during her studies at the Technical University of Berlin in the course Stage Design_Scenography. The installation Copula is a multi-sensory woven sculpture in space that reacts interactively with sound and light. In terms of content, Copula discusses the ancient Egyptian understanding of the temporal dimension and analyzes its different aspects.

The aim of her research is to analyze multisensor based artifacts and the resulting perceptual processes in humans. In this context, the connection and the ability to act between humans, matter and the environment is the central object of investigation. The concrete focus of the research is on visual, textile and auditory media as means of communication in the analog exhibition space. 

To what extent is it possible to develop a cross-media method of communication that attempts to create a common language?
Through the use of woven art, smart textiles and its interaction with movement and sound, this very question is discussed and a new form of performative communication is tested.
