flicker

Flicker is an immersive electronic environment of generative image and sound. A collaborative work with Oliver Bown. Based on biological models of firefly behaviour, Flicker generates an ever shifting rhythmic, meditative environment to the viewer. Flicker uses 4 channels of synchronised high definition video and 8 channels of sound to immerse the viewer in a phenomenologically rich environment of artificial life. The work is a large-scale agent-based simulation, with each agent providing a rhythmic pulse at regular intervals. Agents try to synchronise their pulse with other agents in their immediate neighbourhood. The collective pulsations of groups of local agents are spatially sonified with int exhibition space. Over time, large groups synchronise at different rates, leading to complex visual and aural structures, syncopating and constant shifting in to a long term complexity.

Forms
Forms è una collaborazione tra gli artisti visivi di Memo Akten e Quayola, una serie di studi sul movimento umano, e i suoi riverberi attraverso lo spazio e il tempo. Si ispira alle opere di Eadweard Muybridge, Harold Edgerton, Étienne-Jules Marey così come analogamente si ispirano ad opere moderniste cubiste come quelle di Marcel Duchamp “Nude Descending a Staircase No.2″. Piuttosto che concentrarsi su traiettorie osservabili, esplora le tecniche di estrapolazione per scolpire forme astratte, visualizzando le relazioni invisibili, la potenza, l’equilibrio, la grazia e i conflitti tra il corpo ei suoi dintorni. Il progetto analizza gli atleti e di come questi spingono i loro corpi per le loro capacità estreme, con i loro movimenti plasmati da un processo evolutivo per le prestazioni vincenti.

Véritable sensation dans le renouveau de l’art moderne américain, Daniel Arsham est un peintre et sculpteur new yorkais qui aime à se jouer des illusions dans ses oeuvres. Après ses sculptures en résines ou bien encore son installation igloo, l’artiste crée des sculptures figuratives dissimulées sous un effet drapée pour stimuler l’imagination du spectateur.

Precarious Situation
Marc-Anthony Polizzi was born in 1983 in the post-industrial city of Utica, NY. He attended PRATT at Munson Williams Proctor Institute of Art, The New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, and received his Masters in Fine Art from Tulane University in New Orleans. His education was punctuated by time spent as a traveling carnie, factory brazier, video store clerk, set designer, among other jobs. These diverse and happily demeaning experiences would later help shape his work. Also heavily influential was his time spent living in post-Katrina New Orleans and growing up in the failing rust belt city of Utica, NY.

“L’installazione di Pierpaolo Piccioli è stata la prima che hai incontrato entrando nello spazio cavernoso. Era come entrare in una cappella, con le tele del monaco artista Sidival Fila appese alle pareti; e sui manichini, mantelle, mantelle e gonne a trapezio disegnate, diceva Piccioli, per evocare la Madonna. Quasi divini nella loro semplicità, non saranno estranei ai suoi seguaci di Valentino.” Nicole Phelp

Homage to Ellsworth Kelly

Марин Югонье использует фотографии, фильмы и коллажи, чтобы обсудить природу изображений и связанную с ними социально-политическую и культурную историю. Изображение – это не только визуальное представление объекта, пейзажа или человека, это совокупность властных отношений, социальных условностей, политических амбиций и эстетической силы. Путем исследования их значений и ограничений, Гюгонье представляет нам работу, которая находится на границе между художественной литературой и документальным фильмом, предлагая размышления об условиях, которые формируют наше восприятие реальности.

Fabfungus
FabFungus is a physical installation inspired by questions of digital life and cellular growth. FabFungus is also a computational tool for creating digital structures grown out with a simulated process. It is also a manifestation of couple of these forms, brought to physical reality through imperfect 3D printing.

Feel My Metaverse
Feel My Metaverse is Keiken’s first venture in creating a cinematic film, using game engines to build a fictional future, wanting to create stories that viewers can collectively believe in. “I normally make CGI animation from Cinema 4D, often taking days and weeks just to produce short sequences or footage. Whereas working with game engines, we could generate landscapes or worlds that we can continually build onto collectively to produce larger scale works”. The film, set in a future when climate crisis has rendered Earth inhabitable, explores the daily lives of three characters and their experiences in the multiple realities – Pome Sector (a corporate wellness world), 068 (a roleplaying VR world), and Base Reality, or what we currently know as earth. The characters navigate the challenging landscape in the world’s unforgiving points system. Keiken’s goals of unlearning norms of the current world is included in one of these realities.

DUNE
When French producers asked Jodorowsky to adapt Dune, he was at the peak of his prestige.
…Jodorowsky’s Dune shows, the director managed to assemble a jaw-dropping group of talent for the film. This version of Dune was set to star David Carradine, Orson Welles, Salvador Dali and Mick Jagger. It was going to have Pink Floyd do the soundtrack. And it was going to have the then unknown artist H. R. Giger along with French comic BOOK artist Jean Giraud, otherwise known as Moebius, design the sets. Sadly, Jodorowsky’s grand vision proved to be too grand for the film’s financiers and they pulled the plug. The movie clearly belongs in the pantheon – along with Stanley Kubrick’s Napoleon and Welles’s Heart of Darkness – of the greatest movies never made. Compared to those other films, though, Jodorowsky’s movie sounds way groovier.

Metabolism _ Invisible Cities
Pierre-Jean Giloux’s first monograph, the publication extends the eponymous video tetralogy inspired by the Japanese utopian architectural movement: Metabolism (1960-70).
The films of the Invisible Cities cycle are portraits of Japanese cities, superimposing filmed and photographed images of everyday, social and urban reality, with virtual images.
The book explores the links in Pierre Jean Giloux’s work that connect four Japanese cities with a rich architectural past (Tokyo, Yokohama, Osaka, Kyoto). This jorney through Japan’s Megapolis traces the history of Japan and ends with the reconstruction of pavilions for the Osaka 70 Universal Exhibition and a virtual proposal for a smart city on the waters of Lake Biwa.
The metabolist utopia to which reference is constantly made in the work of Pierre Jean Giloux played a decisive role in the constitution of post-war Japanese cultural identity and had a notable influence on many contemporary architects.

Cutesy Counts
“Uddenberg’s sculptures refuse to conform to this essentialism. Instead, they confront their audience with how it understands feminine appearances and characteristics: is she vulnerable, or is she flexible? Is this dichotomy real? Is she posing, and if so, for whom? Who is she?”

The Birth of A Chair
Ron Gilad (né en 1972 à Tel Aviv) vit et travaille à New York. Au sein de son bureau de design, Designfenzider, il imagine des objets d’art et de design industriel qui s’inspirent autant des maîtres du design italien que des artistes René Magritte, Marcel Duchamp ou Giorgio de Chirico.

The Hidden Dimension II

Years ago, a scandalous “art heist” at the Neues Museum in Berlin—involving illegally made 3D scans of the bust of Nefertiti—turned out to be a different kind of crime. The two Egyptian artists who released the scans claimed they had made the images with a hidden “hacked Kinect Sensor,” reports Annalee Newitz at Ars Technica. But digital artist and designer Cosmo Wenman discovered these were scans made by the Neues Museum itself, which had been stolen by the artists or perhaps a museum employee.

The Mexican artist José León Cerrillo, born in 1976 in San Luís Potosí, uses his multifaceted oeuvre to question what exactly makes a painted picture a work of art. Cerrillo examines the discursive function and the “social character” of painting by provocatively paring a picture down to a decorative pattern or by experimenting with the many different ways of presenting a picture.

The Story of the Earth

The Story of the Earth concerns the development of planet Earth from its formation to the present day. Nearly all branches of natural science have contributed to understanding of the main events of Earth’s past, characterized by constant geological change and biological evolution.
