01SJ 2010 Biennial

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.

Come back for details or, better yet, sign-up for our e-news to keep abreast of news about the 2010 Biennial and other developments at ZER01.

Agora Festival: Prototypes

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".

AHORNFELDER FESTIVAL

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

Alpha-ville. International Festival of Post-digital Culture

“ZEITGEIST, FROM DIGITAL TO POST DIGITAL”

We are all digital

The digital revolution has changed culture, society and business models, driving a fundamental shift in how humans live, communicate and interact. Today digital is everywhere, it means everything. Digital is not new anymore, it has become part of our everyday life without many of us even noticing it. Our culture has fully integrated digital and the internet to the extent that the majority of the rich (or maybe not so rich) countries have access to smartphones and fast broadband connections.

Entering the post-digital age

Art Fair(e): Rencontres des arts numériques, électroniques et médiatiques

 

Pour sa deuxième édition des Rencontres des arts numériques, électroniques et médiatiques, Oudeis a choisi pour thématique Art-Fair(e), comme questionnement sur les moyens et les condition de production et l’art. Sous fond de détournements, les artistes nous invitent à jouer de l’art, au sens propre comme au figuré.

Art-Fair(e) s’articule autour d’une exposition réunissant les artistes : Antonin Fourneau, Philippe Coudert, MTAA (Michael Sarff et Tim Whidden), Antoine Schmitt, Etienne Noiseau, Uri Tzaig (collection FRAC Languedoc-Roussillon), d’un atelier circuit-bending animé par Adrien Decharne et enfin d’un concert de clôture de Bololipsum (musique électro circuit-bending). Des “surprises” viendront s’ajouter à cette foire de l’art pas comme les autres.

Qu’est-ce que le circuit-bending ? Le circuit bending est une pratique de détournement de jouets ou objets électroniques, le plus souvent dans l’optique d’en tirer et créer des sons nouveaux, distordus, court-circuités. Il s’agit dès lors d’ouvrir les jouets et d’en intervertir les circuits, les programmer, d’attribuer de nouvelles actions aux boutons, etc. Il s’agit donc d’un bricolage artistique où interviennent humour, nostalgie et récupération. Tout comme le bruit est un son, l’objet rebut est un instrument potentiel, dont il reste à explorer et à s’approprier les nouvelles fonctions.
