Complex information & interference of the unknown: Franz Xaver operates the Infolab of Stadtwerkstatt. In this context, he is currently expanding the concept of information to include the “Third Nature”. It is about the possibility of complex information - and an approach in which information is a combination of imaginary and real information. Like the complex numbers in mathematics, which consist of a real and an imaginary part. It is always a challenge to transfer unknown information into real, i.e. “logically correct” information. As an example, interference patterns are mentioned and shown, which Franz Xaver repeatedly rediscovered mathematically and artistically in the course of 30 years. The aim is to define the real part of the information. https://i.stwst.at
