Mark your calendars for the 2010 01SJ Biennial, September 16-19, 2010 whose theme is Build Your Own World.
“The best way to predict the future is to invent it,” posited Alan Kay.
This idea encapsulates the Build Your Own World
theme where: The future is not about what’s next; it’s about what we
can build to ensure that what’s next matters. How can we, as
resourceful, innovative, and knowledgeable local and global citizens
build and participate in a desirable future in the face of global
climate change, economic meltdown, political instability, and cultural
divisiveness?
The 2010 01SJ Biennial is predicated on the notion that as artists,
designers, engineers, architects, marketers, corporations and citizens
we have the tools to (re)build the world, conceptually and actually,
virtually and physically, poorly and better, aesthetically and
pragmatically, in both large and small ways. Under the theme “Build
Your Own World,” the 3rd 01SJ Biennial will present a broad range of
exemplary work, which not only imagines the future (world) but builds
it.
The 3rd 01SJ Biennial will take place September 16-19, 2010,
throughout San Jose. It is about how powerful ideas and innovative
individuals from around the world can make a difference and come
together to build a unique, city-wide platform for creative solutions
and public engagement. It is about the inspiration needed to build a
world we want to live in and are able to live with.
“The Biennial in 2010 is slated to be the most provocative and
relevant Biennial that ZER01 has produced yet,” said Steve Dietz,
Artistic Director for ZER01. “Beyond the fact that we’ll be presenting
new commissions from some of the world’s most creative artists, the
theme will shape a fascinating and revealing exploration of what the
future might look like. Additionally, the curatorial model allows us
to both showcase local expertise and complement it with outside talent
that can raise the visibility and stature of the overall Biennial
program.”
In its third iteration, the 01SJ Biennial will further position San
Jose and Silicon Valley as an international center for arts and
culture. With over 45,000 attendees in 2008 – more than attended
either Ars Electronica, the foremost event of its kind, which as has been in existence for 30 years, or Art Basel Miami Beach,
which in its seventh year attracted 40,000 – the 01SJ Biennial is
emerging as one of the world’s most significant events of its kind.
Its phenomenal growth is due in large part to the fact that it is a
mirror of the innovation and spirit that define Silicon Valley and
provides a unique perspective to the world and a synchronicity with the
region where it exists.

A first round in prelude to the 10 Days Off of Belgium …
Creating an intrigue shared among the laboratory, the university, the studio, and society, publicly addressing the questions that arise via artistic interventions or the scientific imagination, testing the effects of a prototype through artistic works, is to act beyond cultural boundaries.
Prototypes by Michael Jarrell meet the language of Heiner Müller, by Sarkis who reintroduces the idea of randomness lost in Roaratorio by Cage. Jonathan Harvey's prototype and dream of a talking orchestra, Gérard Pesson's theatre of lights and a "sensation keyboard", a monumental first for Tristan Murail combining an orchestra with virtual and real choruses.
The enigmatic nature that belongs to the artistic prototype, detected by Proust in Vinteuil's septet, to be an "enduring new thing".
Just like the Ahornfelder label, the line-up aligns artists working on acoustics and electronics, the harmonies and the deconstruction, and so on. It is a combination between sound and music, noises and harmonies, patterns and deconstruction, academic approaches and melodic songwriting
The Amsterdam Dance Event (ADE) is Europe's main dance music conference, bringing together music business professionals from all over the world. One of the biggest programming that is expected with 700 artists!
Festival for Art, Technology and Society. Workshops, performances, demonstrations, electronic musics, installations, museum of the future, laboratory innovations, awards to artists for interactive works, and so on.

Italian works joining “Fish Eye Festival”, and from “Schio Glocal
