Jeffrey Shaw, The Golden Calf (1994) Theory / Practice • Data Visualization • Tacit Knowledge • Art should, in its conception and construction, ask serious questions. • Art should, in its experience point towards profound answers. Dan Shiffman, Hover Shawn Brixey, Altamira (2005) Old Wine in New Bottles Michael Noll Computer Composition With Lines (1964) Piet Mondrian Composition With Lines (1917) Old Wine in New Bottles Keith Cottingham Triplets (1992) Giorgione The Three Ages of Man (c. 1510) Collaborative Futures A-positive, a dialogical event created by Ed Bennett and myself, probes the delicate relationship between the human body and emerging new breeds of hybrid machines that incorporate biological elements and from these elements extract sensorial or metabolic functions. The work creates a situation in which a human being and a robot have direct physical contact via an intravenous needle connected to clear tubing and feed one another in a mutually nourishing relationship. Eduardo Kac / Ed Bennett, A-Positive (1997) The Uncertainty Principle • Ourselves and where we are • Art for the universe • Can art predict the future? • Inertial Frames of Reference • Quantum Aesthetics: the impact of interaction on real-time art James Turrell, Roden Crater The Medium is the Message • Process as art • The aesthetics of disappointment • Collaboration • Form - Content - Material • Architectures of Control • Subject / Object • Genesthetics Komar & Melamid, The Most Wanted Paintings on the Web Network Aesthetics • Readers and Writers • Two-way communications • The Internet is not a terminal horizon… • Telepistemology • Conversational telematics • Collective Consciousness The Virtual and the Real • Subject/object • Identity • Disembodiment • Non-linearity • Imaging • Data-bodies Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Under Scan (2005) Tactical Media / Hacktivism • Politicized anti- monumental technological practice • Aims to undermine existing social institutions rather than create iconography of its own • Amateur, lo-tech, cheap, accessible Tactical Media are what happens when the cheap 'do it yourself' media, made possible by the revolution in consumer electronics and expanded forms of distribution (from public access cable to the internet) are exploited by groups and individuals who feel aggrieved by, or excluded from, the wider culture. Tactical Media do not just report events; as they are never impartial, they always participate and it is this that more than anything separates them from mainstream media. Geert Lovink, “The ABC of Tactical Media” (1996) Carbon Defense League, Flashpoint (2003) Strategies: Hybrid Presence Mateusz Hercska Life Support Systems - Vanda (2004) Strategies: Beyond Representation • “Aristotle knew that you have to reveal yourself to yourself before you can reveal yourself to anyone else…” (Joe Davis) • Encoding • Telling our own story: self- representation • Self-replication • Self-organization • Feedback • Situated adaptation Shawn Brixey, Eon Final Project… • Due 11AM, 12/3 • Follow the upload instructions! • Presentations 12/3, 12/5, 12/7 Martin Creed, Everything is Going to be Alright (2003)
