- title: "A selection of works"
artist: "Reynold Reynolds"
speakers: "Reynold Reynolds"
artist_bio: "Reynold Reynolds was born in 1966 in Central, Alaska. During his undergraduate schooling at the University of Colorado at Boulder, Reynolds studied Physics receiving a Bachelor\u201aÄôs degree under the professorship of Carl Wieman (Physics Nobel Laureate 2001). Changing his focus to studio art he remained two more years in Boulder to study under experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage. After moving to New York City Reynolds completed an M.F.A. at the School of Visual Arts.\n\nInfluenced early on by philosophy and science, and working primarily with 16mm as an art medium, he has developed a film grammar based on transformation, consumption and decay. Detailed evolving symbols and allusive references create a powerful pictorial language based on Reynolds\u201aÄô analytical point of view. His depiction of people often makes us aware of the small frames we use to understand reality. By subtly altering the regular conditions of life and watching their effects, he transfers the experimental methods of science to filmmaking, where he frames reality in his laboratory and changes one variable at a time to reveal an underlying causality. \n\nIn 2003 Reynold Reynolds was awarded the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship and in 2004 invited to The American Academy in Berlin with a studio at Kunstlerhaus Bethanien for one year. In 2008 he received support from the German Kunstfonds to develop two projects in Berlin. \n\nHe showed his films at Sundance Film Festival, International Film Festival Rotterdam, Edinburgh Film Festival, Ann Arbor Film Festival and SXSW Film Festival.\n\nReynolds has received numerous awards for his film work, including the Festival Award for \u201aÄúSecret Life\u201aÄù at the European Media Art Festival Osnabrueck 2008, the \u201aÄò09 Distinction Award for \u201aÄúSix Apartments\u201aÄù at Transmediale Berlin and Mention sp√©ciale du jury, \u201aÄúLast Day of the Republic\u201aÄù at Videoformes, 2011"
description: "Reynold will show works made in his Berlin studio and some older works from his collaborations in New York with Patrick Jolley who recently passed away unexpectedly.\n\nThe Drowning Room (2000, 10 min), Burn (2002, 10 min) with Patrick Jolley\n\nSix Apartments (2007, 12 min), Secret Life (2008, 10 min), Secret Machine (2009, 14 min)\n"

artist_bio: "New media artist / live video performer / filmmaker. With her background in multimedia and digital arts she now works with new media technologies and interactive arts, exploring new possibilities in creative artistic-scientific demonstration. In her recent solo and collaborative projects she investigates the issues of physical computing and human-machine interaction.\nBesides she\u201aÄôs an artistic director of \"LPM Live Performers Meeting\", the world\u201aÄôs biggest annual meeting dedicated to live video performance, a core member of the \"FLxER\" team - performing video network and software, co-founder of \"Edinburgh Hacklab\" hackerspace in Scotland."
description: "Keywords: biofeedback, data visualization, human-machine interaction, installation, manipulation, robotics, Artificial Rat Project\n\n\u201aÄúArtificial rat\u201aÄù is a work in progress open for interdisciplinary collaboration.\nThe Artificial Rat Project aims to investigate the nature of human-machine relationship, provoking an interaction between the two. In the closed installation space, human will be forced to interact with the \u201aÄúanimal\u201aÄù. The \u201aÄúrat\u201aÄù is a programmed mechanism emulating the physical animal in its behaviour. It has been noted that people tend to react emotionally to the machines and refer to the computers using the vocabulary of human psychology to describe the performance of the machine, even though they are able to clearly distinguish between the 'real' and 'artificial'. In the course of this project, such strong emotional reactions of humans to the machines, will be examined.\nThe artificial rat should appear to respond to human emotional states, and hence the biofeedback technology will be employed for the reactions measurement. Changes in emotional state of human participants will be used as an input for the rat, thus enabling a response. The responses of each participant will be visualized and compared in real time.\nThere are two main quests of this project:\n- technical: building a machine that is as close to the real animal as possible, in both appearance and behaviour; \n- socio-psychological: provoking an interaction between the machine and human, which results in human\u201aÄôs emotional involvement.\n"

- title: "Mixing art and science – enthalpy, entropy, visual narration, and dance"
artist: "Agnieszka “Bronka” Bronowska"
speakers: "Agnieszka “Bronka” Bronowska"
artist_bio: "Life sciences and visual arts can fuel each other and be – one for another one – the sources of inspiration. Good visualization is pivotal for biological and chemical sciences – to illustrate the key concepts, to transmit information, and to bring new ideas along.
Some concepts, like macromolecular flexibility, protein ensembles, or enthapy- entropy compensation, which are often difficult to explain, can be portrayed by dance and video art in a form that is readily accessible to non-scientists. This is of a crucial importance for explaining the concepts to children or otherwise popularising life sciences. ! This also goes the other way round. Science itself can be the source of inspiration for the art. Protein dynamics and ligand-protein interactions can serve as a canvas for story-telling, and the concept of periodic boundary conditions (PBC) used in molecular simulations can be exploited as a parallel to the concept of social roles, etc etc. Last but not least, structural biology, structure-based molecular design, and molecular modelling use tools which can also be used by visual artists for other purposes."
description: "In my talk I will briefly introduce the concepts, data sources, and tools, which can be used by visual artists in their work. I will focus on the need for motion graphics, especially in depicting the phenomena which involve dynamic components hence the entropic terms (e.g. drug-receptor interactions, rational drug design). Finally, I will ask for ideas and feedback from the audience about the future directions in visualising the dynamic and multi-scale data."

artist_bio: "In May 2010 “trashpuzzle” was born. Their aim was to entertain people on a party by performing a handmade live-collage, that was projected on a wall. They used an old technology – episcope and a little transport band to let the pictures move automatically. The effect was fantastic. The dancefloor turned into a colorful carpet made of our pictures. People were fascinated with their spontaneous creations. Some even joined their session."
description: "During three years Trashpuzzle developed. New people joined the group, equipment has evolved and they gave dozens of shows in clubs around Berlin and other cities. Antique episcope has been replaced by beamer. The transport band is filmed by a live mix of two cameras that are hidden in a black box. And the group expanded to five members, who are pushing the idea forward and have a lot of fun."

First steps in the art world began in 2001 with visuals installations in exhibitions. So did he do first live visual shows as a VJ to live music. The VJ work was performed internationally in widely renown night clubs. Bildpeter played in multiple bands as live visualist to support the bands music experience. The film-work ranges from experimental films to visual poetry, from political activism to band videos. Science is seen by Peter Kolski as the beauty of thoughts and curiosity between nature and philosophy. His scientific work is strongly influenced by his art, as an unconventional way of investigation. The fields of self-organisation and complex systems are approached strongly visually."
description: "The talk will give an overview of the three main fields of BildPeters work: digital art, film/photography and science. It will touch fields like: VJing with Quartz Composer. Video generation with Processing and OpenFrameworks. Filming with DSLRs. Science with an iPad."

artist: "Richard Tuohy"
speakers: "Richard Tuohy"
artist_bio: "In the late 1980s and early 1990s Richard Tuohy was an active member of the Melbourne Super 8 Film Group. He suspended his work in film for several years, studying philosophy, music and botany, before returning to the medium in 2005. Since then he has created almost 40 films, first on Super 8 and more recently on 16mm. His films have screened at venues including the Melbourne IFF, EMAF (Osnabruck), Rotterdam IFF, New York Film Festival and Media City and he has toured Europe and North America presenting solo programs of his work. His films are part of the ‘hand-made’ film tradition. His films to date have shown two principal concerns: a fascination with abstractions from nature and with the materialist film tradition. His films are typically highly structured and formalist. As well as running the only lab for small gauge film in Australia – the artist-run lab nanolab – Richard was also one of the founding directors of the Australian International Experimental Film Festival. He is also the convener of the Artist Film Workshop – an artist run laboratory and screening initiative in Melbourne."
description: "After a brief contextualising introduction, I will perform my two x 16mm projector expanded cinema piece Dot Matrix (2013, 16 minutes). I will then give an account of the works origins and my working proceedure for its creation. I will contrast this film with two earlier works of mine - Flyscreen and Dot Matrix. I will also endevour to give a brief account of the place of Dot Matrix in the structuralist film tradition."

description: "Name Yun Pike is known for manipulating a TV set with a magnet. One might think that after we abandoned monitor tubes the combination of TV and magnetism is gone as well. But similar is still possible today by manipulating the monitor signal.
The fact that VGA is a signal based on electric current allows for hacking. One can manipulate it with coils and magnetic fields. The signal being similiar to sound signals makes for an easy transfer to sound and vice versa.
Wolfgang Spahn uses these possibilities in his artwork and media performances in order to merge sound and visuals.
Digital is not always virtual. It is sometimes real, too."

Sebastian Neitsch rather employs experimental and assiociative methods in order to achieve innovative and intuitiv systems and thoughts for Quadrature’s conceptual and artistic vision.While his focus is on the digital world – including everything concerning code, electronics and new technologies – he considers teamwork and communication as the perfect source to generate creative output and solutions.
Juliane Götz: is the latest member of Quadrature and fills the missing link between hardware based pragmatism and digital utopics in Quadrature’s projects. Her design and handcraft skills as fashion designer are combined with the abiltiy to quickly understand and implement new dynamic workflows and structures into the group. They all share a love for machines and outer space."
description: "After introducing themselves and their work, they will focus on the problems for media artists to be part of the traditional gallery-marked in the art business. Even so a lot of Art projects, which use modern technology and try to bring it into a different not consumer-based context, are quite successful, a lot of them are being displayed only in festivals or as digital copies in the internet, rather then being shown in privat galleries. This implements that the creators make a living either from grants, teaching, very small fees or they finance their free art work with client-based commissions. The reasons for this are manifold. A lot of projects are technical experiments on a larger scale, which can hardly be sold as an peace of art that the client could simply place or even hang in his home. Another reason is the fact that a lot of Media Artists rather work on a very conceptual level, creating work that is either only excisting in digital form,very much created for certain spaces or react to certain appearings of modern society. So whenever you would take this projects out of their context they would not make any sense at all."

Techniques like filtering and distortion can be applied to the signals before they're mixed. This makes it possible to get results that are both rich sounding and precisely controllable. The software to do this is open source, free to download."

artist: Derek Holzer
artist_url: http://macumbista.net/
description: "Derek Holzer (1972) is an American instrument builder and sound artist based in Berlin DE, whose current interests include DIY analog electronics, the relationship between sound + space, media archaeology and the meeting points of electroacoustic, noise, improv and extreme music. He has performed live, taught workshops and created scores of unique instruments and installations since 2002 across Europe, North and South America, and New Zealand.
The utopias of electronic sound have hardly changed in its hundred-year history. We still want to imitate existing instruments, create sounds which have never been heard before and realize complex compositions without the need of an orchestra. It is only the tools which have become more complex. But there are dystopias as well, which come especially from using tools designed around other people’s way of creating sound, rather than your own. Instrument builder, teacher and performer Derek Holzer of Macumbista.net will discuss the inspiration of some of the pioneers of 20th Century electronic sound as springboards to some of his own creations, which the audience will have a chance to explore following the talk."

speakers: "Ioann Maria"
artist_bio:
description: "This Session will attempt an open discussion that addresses issues of privacy and online freedom of expression.
We want to discuss if and why privacy matters. How does that relate to contemporary artists and the tools they (we) are using? Is there a space for a political statement? How much strength does artistic expression have in the cyberworld? What are the chances and responsibilities of artists confronted with the omnipresent power- and control-structures in the wake of the revelations of Edward Snowden and other whistleblowers."
