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".

The robots are programmed to produce the perfect tap dance moves, so you can enjoy the tap dance sounds and pleasure easily. A funny way to have a try with this dance without having Fred Astaire's feet.   ...

Attendees will implement projects utilizing Syneme's (and those of our partner's) robust network infrastructure that carries HD video and uncompressed multichannel audio. A major focus of the course is to share ideas/methodologies in progress as related to telearts projects. The workshop will conclude with an international networked, real-time collaborative performance.

Syneme’s partners include the Banff Centre, Mcgill and Concordia Montreal, IDC Emily Carr, CEMC and Peking Univ Beijing, NUS Singapore, SARC Belfast, University of Waikata NZ, City University of Hong Kong, Bournemouth UK, and Stanford and Indiana Purdue US.
