Everything Was Forever, Until It Was No More
Das ursprüngliche Konzept des Projekts wurde von der illusorischen Natur der Zeit inspiriert, wie sie von Julian Barbour definiert wurde. Dieser britische theoretische Physiker untergräbt die Bedeutung der Zeit, während er eine Vision eines zeitlosen Universums heraufbeschwört. Eine der Grundideen dabei ist, dass die Gegenwart als dreidimensionale Momentaufnahme wahrgenommen wird und die chronologische Abfolge von Ereignissen nichts anderes als das Ergebnis unserer Erinnerung an individuelle „Jetzt“ ist. Daher ist Zeit laut Barbour nur ein Gefühl der Zeitlichkeit, verstärkt durch Aufzeichnungen dessen, was wir glauben, dass es in der Vergangenheit existiert hat.

“I have been inspired by many artists of the past and present to arrive at this moment of creativity. I have been inspired by some wonderful spiritual teachers to arrive at this moment of beauty and mystery. I invite you to share in my vision of this mystery“. Steve Fields

AKATRE

Valentin Abad, Julien Dhivert y Sebastien Riveron son los fundadores de Akatre. Se conocieron estudiando arte en 2002, y poco después de recibirse decidieron formar su propio estudio, con el objetivo manifiesto de encontrar constantemente nuevas aplicaciones y combinaciones, procurando evitar la inmovilidad. Aquí una muestra del éxito que han tenido en la búsqueda de su meta.

The weight of light
Light, as we usually interpret it, is an element without mass and gravity. For “the weight of light” a physics engine simulates the kinetic forces of a moving object. This mass is projected on a wave shaped structure in virtual space. The moving object is represented as a light particle in physical space. Gravity, mass, density and friction affect velocity and acceleration of these light particles. As the particles movement is based on a simulation, it does not have to adhere to the physical realities we know from everyday life. Therefore the installation goes beyond expected behaviour. Thus the matter of light traverses a reinterpretation of our known reality.

JUNG-YEON MIN KOMMT AUS SÜDKOREA, ABER JETZT LEBT UND ARBEITET SIE IN PARIS. SIE HAT VIEL ERFINDLICHE UND IHRE SUPER IMAGINATIVEN ARBEITEN, WIE SIE DROGENINDUZIERT WERDEN KÖNNTEN. MENSCHEN SIND IN IHREN TRÄUMEN, IN EINER SURREALEN WELT. Es gibt eine Mischung aus Realistischem und Außerordentlichem. DAS MIKRO UND DAS MAKRO, DIE WELT, DIE WIR KENNEN UND DIE VIRTUELLE. ES GIBT KEINE ZEIT.

APPARITION
Materiality and process are central to Rebecca Ward’s practice and evoke “architectural garments” ripped, unwoven, and re-stitched from fleshtoned canvas duck, leather hide, and silk organza. In her canvas works, the artist removes the weft (horizontal) threads of the fabric to reveal the underlying stretcher bars, highlighting the physical structure of the painting itself. Ward’s artworks reveal and obscure, and by their nature, entice viewers to closely investigate contrasts in line and material, modulations in color, and multi-dimensional layers.

Amos Rex Museum
Amos Rex rethinks the urban park as part of our museum experience. Its structure is built with large concrete domes. This principle is very functional for museum use: it allows long column-free spans and flexible exhibition spaces. The domes contain skylights that introduce natural light into the galleries below as well as carefully selected views of life above. At street level, a new urban square has been created with a unique identity. The domes form an undulating landscape for people to enjoy, especially children. The Lasipalatsi building was restored respecting its valuable 1930´s Functionalist era interiors and details.

MAN-NAHĀTA
Computational growth across material and urban scales offers a framework for design through self-organization, enabling the generation of vast, diverse forms exhibiting characteristics like those that emerge through the biological growth processes found in Nature. In this project, we construct an oriented volume spanned by surface normals of the shape at every point. The value of the oriented volume drives the iterative deformation of the shape. Depending on the parameterization of this process, we can obtain distinctly different growing forms. Importantly, the emergence of these forms is driven only by the time evolution of a geometric operator acting on the shapes iteratively, thereby connecting geometry and growth through an algorithm. To form the Man-Nahata landscape, the buildings of the urban landscape are transformed through repeated morphological closing operations, where the field of influence follows a gradient from the center to the outskirts of a circular region.

For, In Your Tongue, I Cannot Fit
‘For, in your tongue, I cannot fit,’ gives voice to 100 poets who have been jailed through time for their writing or their beliefs. The haunting work highlights the fragility and vulnerability of our right to freedom of expression today—and the bravery of those who struggle to resist. Visitors will encounter 100 microphones suspended over 100 metal rods, each piercing a verse of poetry. Over the course of an hour, each microphone in turn recites a fragment of the poets’ words, spoken first by a single voice then echoed by a chorus which shifts across the space.

QUBIT AI: Max Haarich (Project Smart Hans)

Max Haarich (Project Smart Hans) – Smart Hans – Germany

The Smart Hans project is a synthetic reincarnation of Clever Hans, a horse that became famous in the early 20th century for apparently answering mathematical questions by tapping its hoof. The interactive installation features an animated horse that can guess any number in its mind through posture recognition. At the same time a fun joke and an illustration of why we worry about artificial intelligence.

Bio

Max Haarich is an artistic researcher, ethicist and consultant focusing on artificial intelligence and web3. He studied communication science at RWTH Aachen and critical thinking at the University of the Underground. After his studies, he researched artificial superintelligence at RWTH Aachen and later worked as a communications manager at Europe’s leading startup hub.

ドリームキャッチャー
この作品は、モントリオールで開催された2012年版のFestivalTransamériques(最近ではエドモントンのEnterprise Square Galleries)で、Creation / Exhibit The Body in Question(s)の一部として最初に展示されました。問題のボディには、メラニックスのCTスキャンに基づいたドリームキャッチャーと呼ばれる彫刻も含まれていました。イザベルは、Melanix.Executeの二次投影の前で行われたこの彫刻でパフォーマンスを振り付けました。彫刻は投影と同じデータから作成されたため、これにより、「ハードコピー」としてエクスポートされたデジタル化されたボディの接線方向の考慮が可能になりました。

Compression de densité
Avec Density Compression [2020], Fujimoto tourne son attention vers les comportements fondamentaux de la lumière visible, en se concentrant sur les lignes droites et la réflexion. En représentant la lumière comme un réseau dense de lignes voyageant dans un espace limité, l’artiste rend la lumière comme un objet physique, lui permettant d’explorer et finalement de changer son comportement de base. La pièce est accompagnée d’une partition atmosphérique du compositeur expérimental et affilié de Raster-Noton Kyoka.
