Kiritan Flux

Performing in Physical and Mental Space

#59: Kiritan Flux / http://flux.vision/ – Throughout my work in the field of improvised live video art ('VJing') one special focus has always been the 'set and setting' of the performance. Who am I besides the operator of my instruments? In which local and cultural context do I present my art right now? I deliberately use such questions as prime inspiration for conceptual live performances unique to the place of their presentation and my subjective reception of that place. 'Place' in a spatial and also geographical sense. In my talk I will present a selection of my past and current work related to this concept.

Lauren Moffatt

She is interested in how the dimension of depth in digital moving image can be used as a storytelling device. Her works, often presented in multiple forms, explore contemporary subjectivity and connected bodies as well as the limits between virtual and physical worlds. Over a number of years she has developed a body of work pivoting on stereoscopic photography and video and informed by the history of cinema and broadcast technologies. Her works have been screened and exhibited most recently at Centrale for Contemporary Art in Brussels, New Frontier at the Sundance Film Festival, Les Champs Libres in Rennes and at the ZKM in Karlsruhe.

She explores socio-political implications of planetary scale computation, seeking out apophenic patterns with an array of elements ranging from subcultural formations to totalitarian architecture. Jones explores society’s anthropological adaptations intertwined in the framework of networked capitalism, its coping mechanism of coming to terms with challenged ontological axioms of cognition, affection and memory. Under the alias MBJ Wetware, Jones develops immersive live performances simulating heterotopian landscapes.

She works with a variety of media, such as video, installation, photography and interactive media. Minimal in style and form, Chan’s works often toy with the blurred boundaries between reality and illusion, figure and abstraction. Her screening Black Moves is selected for showcase at 21st Incubator for Film and Visual media in Asia as a finalist and 22nd International Symposium on Electronic Art (ISEA) in Hong Kong. Black Moves is an immersive video, a spatial drama and a virtual landscape that simulates the forming and de-forming of an amorphous black mass. Black Moves springs from a long obsession and fascination with natural transformations, particularly formless shapes and their movement.

Derek Holzer

Probing the Past: A Media Archaeology of Handmade Electronic Sound

#35: Derek Holzer / http://macumbista.net/ – 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.

Quadrature

From a visual journey into another dimension.

#34: Quadrature / http://quadrature.co/ – 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.

Miller Puckette

How to have fun with a six channel guitar pckup

#34: Miller Puckette / http://msp.ucsd.edu/ – Puckette demonstrates what happens when you put individual pickup coils on each string of your guitar, opening up a wide range of sonic possibilities beyond what you can get out of an ordinary pickup. 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.

Mixing Art and Science

#4: Agnieszka ‘Bronka’ Bronowska / https://vimeo.com/user5853568 – Life sciences and visual arts can fuel each other. Good visualization is pivotal for biological and chemical sciences – to illustrate and transmit information. 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. And such concepts and tools can actually be used by visual artists in their work...
