Almost annually since 2006, Studio Olafur Eliasson has hosted a get-together called Life is space (formerly Life in space). For this day-long event, scientists, artists, scholars, dancers, theorists, spatial practitioners, and movement experts come together with the Institut für Raumexperimente participants and the studio team to share, discuss, present, and experiment. These meetings are only loosely planned in advance and are largely left to intuition and serendipity.

Artificial glaciers shaped like "stupas", whose shape keeps them frozen until spring, when water in the Himalayas become sparse because of retrieving glaciers. Architect Sunam Wangchuk first began constructing the ice stupas in Ladakh, and is now collaborating with architects and glaciologist to take the idea to other places. Here he is working with a Swiss team, including landscape architect Günther Vogt.
