The video loop “Kopf / Zahl / Physik” (Heads / Tails / Physics) uses three-dimensional pixels (so-called voxels) to simulate a physical coin toss. After multiple rotations, the coin either shows a “1” or a “0” before continuing to rotate. By repeating this action over and over, its result can be used as a decision-making tool by the viewers. Sometimes, however, the coin falls on its flat side, revealing its true physical context. This “third state” breaks with the binary expectations of a simple “yes” or “no” and leaves the viewers a kind of decision void to fill on their own.
