WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE

Združevanje, sodelovanje Collaboration, joining forces Mednarodni festival računalniških umetnosti (MFRU) devetnajstič. Mednarodni festival KIBLIX dvanajstič. Letos tretjič združena oblikujeta vsebine sodobne umetnosti, znanosti in inovativne uporabe novih tehnologij. Živimo v času, ko informacije predstavljajo tržno vrednost, komunikacijske tehnologije so produkcijska orodja, znanstvene raziskave postajajo del našega vsakdanjega življenja, kreiramo vzporedne svetove in jih mešamo med seboj, digitaliziramo naš vsakdanjik. Bolj kot kdaj koli sta čas in prostor relativna. Temu pravimo razvoj. In prav to dejstvo je pripeljalo do sodelovanja dveh institucij – Mladinskega kulturnega centra Maribor in Kulturno izobraževalnega društva KIBLA – z namenom razvijati odprto, skupno produkcijsko in vsebinsko platformo, namenjeno predstavljanju sodobne umetnosti, sooblikovanju in ponujanju različnih modelov izobraževanja, izmenjavi znanja, idej in inovativnih rešitev, povezovanju umetnikov, znanstvenikov, inženirjev, kreativcev, študentov, šolarjev, upokojencev, invalidov, ranljivih skupin iz vsega sveta, namenjeno vam. MFRU-KIBLIX je koncept prihodnosti, ki ponuja aktivno participacijo posameznika in ga s tem transformira iz pasivnega obiskovalca v aktivnega udeleženca. S tem gre za edinstven dogodek, ki mestu Maribor in širši regiji ponuja številne nove rešitve, pomembne za razvoj posameznika in družbe, zastavlja vprašanja, ponuja odgovore, provocira in motivira. MFRU-KIBLIX je globalni happening, kjer nacionalna pripadnost, barva kože, rasa, spolna usmerjenost, politično prepričanje niso pomembni. Pomembno je zavedanje, da sta združevanje in sodelovanje globalni model prihodnosti in neizogibna za lokalno sobivanje. Soodvisnost drug od drugega bo vedno bolj prijetna, ko bomo spoznali, da smo skupaj celota. ENG It’s the nineteenth edition of the International Festival of Com-

puter Arts (MFRU) and the twelfth edition of KIBLIX International Festival. This year, joined together for the third time, they combine contents related to contemporary art, science and innovative technology uses. We live in a time where information is market value and communication technologies act as production tools; scientific research is becoming a part of our daily lives, we create parallel worlds and fuse them; our daily routines are becoming increasingly digitalized. Today more than ever, time and space are relative. It’s what we call progress. And this is the fact that led to the collaboration between two institutions: Mladinski Kulturni Center and KIBLA, with the goal of developing an open, joint production and content platform designed to present contemporary art, to construct and offer various education models, to exchange knowledge, ideas and innovative solutions, to connect artists, scientists, engineers, creators, students, pensioners, the disabled and vulnerable groups from around the globe… designed for you! MFRU-KIBLIX is a concept of the future that offers active participation to individuals, transforming them from passive visitors into active participants. As such it is a unique event, offering to Maribor and the wider region numerous new perspectives, which are important for the development of the individual and the society; asking questions, providing answers, provoking and motivating. MFRU-KIBLIX is a global happening where nationality, race, sexual orientation and political beliefs are of no significance. What matters is the awareness that joining forces and collaborating is a global model of the future and an undeniable asset to local co-existence. Codependence is much more pleasant once we realize that together we form a whole. Nina Arsenovič, Dejan Pestotnik

KO SVETOVI TRČIJO

Mednarodni festival računalniških umetnosti MFRU (v organizaciji MKC Maribor) se v Sloveniji ponaša z devetnajstletno tradicijo. Z odpiranjem prostora računalniških umetnosti ter privabljanjem širokega spektra interdisciplinarnih gostov skrbi za ustrezno umestitev digitalnih in intermedijskih umetnosti pri nas. Družno z Multimedijskim centrom KIBLA orje ledino na področju razvoja novih medijev ter povezovanja različnih umetniških in tehnoloških disciplin. Povezovalni naziv festivala MFRU-KIBLIX2013 “Ko svetovi trčijo” si naslov sposoja iz klasike znanstveno-fantasičnega filma “When Worlds Collide” iz leta 1951. Simbolika filma poudarja razdvojenost, paradoks prepada med razvitim in nerazvitim tretjim svetom. Festival v tem kontekstu simbolizira živo naravo, realnost, v kateri živimo, ki je prepletena in odvisna od bliskovitega razvoja znanosti, tehnologije in, posledično, umetnosti, da ji je danes že nemogoče slediti. MFRU-KIBLIX2013 predstavlja most med teoretskimi in praktičnimi vsebinami intermedijskih umetnosti. Povezuje jih z digitalnimi mediji, znanstvenimi dosežki, tehnološkimi novostmi. Spodbuja interaktivno sodelovanje različnih smeri digitalnih umetnosti ter njihovo integracijo v praktično, torej produkcijsko ali pedagoško okolje. Med 6. in 9. novembrom 2013 bo potekal aktivni del festivala z delavnicami, ki jih bodo vodili mentorji, profesorji robotike, elektrotehnike, elektronike in strojništva ter študentje, dijaki in učenci ter tudi umetniki sami. Zvrstile se bodo zaključne okrogle mize delavnic, predstavitve, pogovori z umetniki in predavanja. Festival spremlja razstava sodelujočih umetnikov in njihovih svetov, ki bo na ogled do 25. novembra 2013 v razstavišču KIBLA Portala. Zvrstili se bodo tudi sprostitveni dogodki z Gaming Loungeom in vsakodnevnim DJ in VJ zaključkom. ENG MFRU (The International Festival of Computer Arts), organized

by MKC – Youth Cultural Center Maribor, proudly represents itself with this year’s nineteenth edition. By opening space to computer arts and attracting a wide specter of interdisciplinary guests, MFRU provides for appropriate localization of digital and intermedia arts in Slovenia. Jointly with Multimedia center KIBLA, it is breaking new grounds in the fields of new media development and interconnecting of various artistic and technological disciplines. An integrative denomination of the festival MFRUKIBLIX2013 “When worlds collide” derives from the 1951’s classic science fiction movie of the same name. The Symbolism of the movie emphasizes separation, the paradox of a gap between the developed and underdeveloped Third world. In this respect, it symbolizes the living nature, reality in which we live in and is closely tied to and dependant on the swift development of science, technology and consequently art, making it impossible for us to keep up with it promptly. MFRU-KIBLIX2013 represents a bridge between the theoretical and practical content of intermedia arts, associating them with digital media, scientific achievements and technological novelties. It stimulates interactive cooperation of different approaches to digital arts, as well as their integration into practical, namely productive and pedagogical environment. The active part of the festival will take place between 6th and 9th of November; it will consist of workshops held by mentors, professors of robotics, electronics, electrical and mechanical engineering, as well as students, pupils and artists themselves. Workshops’ final round tables, presentations, artists’ talks and lectures will round up the festival’s workshop section. Festival will also be accompanied by an exhibition of participating artists and their worlds which will be on display until 25th of November at KIBLA portal. Finally, a Gaming Lounge and daily DJ and VJ performances will enrich the festival as well, bringing a more relaxed ambience to the vibrant venue. Nina Jeza

WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE

Mundus vade ... Sodobne interdisciplinarne oblike umetniških snovanj se prepletajo v kompleksnih spojih različnih pristopov, v napetosti med živimi organizmi in kognitivnim, naravnim in bio-tehnološkim, virtualnim in hibridnim, lažnim in resničnim principom – odpira se nov kreativni svet, ustvarja se nova družbena zavest. Po eni strani se soočamo s povečavami v scenarije najmanjših delcev in s pomanjšavami v vesoljske razsežnosti. Po drugi strani poskušamo rešiti nasprotujoče si tendence družbenih odnosov in probleme preživetja eksponencialno naraščajoče vrste homo sapiens. Kultura in znanost kot panogi se prepletata ter pri tem na konstruktiven način izmenjujeta kulturne modele kritičnega razmišljanja, aktivizma in eksperimentiranja z znanstvenimi metodami, raziskovalnim delom in znanjem. Pramodele, na primer človek, kri, zvok, glas, telo, snov, spomin in tako naprej, ustvarjalci kodirajo s sodobnimi interdisciplinarnimi mediji in z nenehno spreminjajočo se zavestjo o najmanjših delcih, o samem sebi, o živih bitjih, planetarnih spremembah, preživetjem in razsežnostjo vesolja. Ali se razumevanje prapočel, prisotnih v človekovi zavesti že tisočletja, spreminja? Ali ostajajo v naši spremenjeni zavesti istovetna? ENG Contemporary interdisciplinary forms of artistic conceptions are

intertwined inside complex junctions of different worlds and approaches, in the tension between living organisms and the cognitive, the natural and the bio-technological, the virtual and the hybrid, the fake and the genuine principle – a new creative world is opened; a new social awareness is created. On one hand we are faced with magnifications of smallest parts and minimizations of space dimensions. On the other hand, we are trying to solve opposing social relations tendencies and survival problems related to the exponentially growing Homo sapiens species. Culture and science intertwine as disciplines, constructively exchanging cultural models of critical thinking, activism and experimentation with scientific methods, research and knowledge. Archaic models such as man, blood, sound, voice, body, matter, memory and so on are coded by creators using contemporary interdisciplinary media and a constantly changing awareness about smallest elementary particles, about themselves and other living creatures, about planetary changes, survival and vastness of the universe. Is the understanding of ancient principles that have been a part of the human psyche for thousands of years changing? Or do they remain unchanged inside our altered consciousness? Aleksandra Kostič

KO SVETOVI TRČIJO

ne_NARAVNO / un_NATURAL »If animals did not exist, the nature of man would be even more incomprehensible.« Georges-Louis Buffon

Vsebine letošnjega festivala KIBLIX 2013, KO SVETOVI TRČIJO se dotikajo nekaterih reprezentativnih ravni, ki smo jih skušale zaobjeti v konceptu, poimenovanem ne_NARAVNO. Naše stališče do izbranih vsebin presega dualizem narava – kultura, saj z njim želimo razpreti gledišče, ki dekonstruira norme participatornega razumevanja različnih oblik življenja zato znotraj mnogih konstruiranih družbenih imperativov evociramo razmislek o meddisciplinarnih možnostih za (so)bivanje biosa in techne. Ker naravo dojemamo kot interdisciplinarno polje bioloških, kulturnih in družbenih fenomenov, želimo zaradi te paradigme pojmu “nenaravno” priskrbeti širši mentalni okvir, znotraj katerega ta dobi novo razumevanje in drugačne poudarke. Umetnost in humanizem sta tu prisotna v izbiri zornega kota, v meddisciplinarnem pogledu na interakcijo pojmov naravnega in nenaravnega. Tako imenovane biofobne paradigme vzpodbujajo mnoge interpretacije, ki posledično lahko privedejo do vznika različnih ideologij. Umetniški cilj v tem primeru ni zgolj v znanstvenem raziskovanju bioloških fenomenov, ampak predvsem v preizpraševanju koncepta in paradigem o problematiki odnosa do narave skozi širšo (družbeno) perspektivo. Na drugi strani tovrstna problematika iz postantropocentrične perspektive razpira razmislek o kontekstu časovnih razsežnosti, znotraj katerih se med drugim lahko sprašujemo o (ne)obstoju lastne vrste v najširšem smislu. Miselni okvir izven tistega, kjer naravne in nenaravne imperative spremlja strah pred neznanim, se torej nagiba k spraševanju o načinih sobivanja z različnimi fenomeni živega. ENG The contents of this year’s festival KIBLIX 2013, WHEN WORLDS

COLLIDE concern some representative levels, which we tried to encompass in a concept entitled un_NATURAL. Our stand towards the selected contents transcends the nature-culture dualism, because we wish to use it to widen the view that deconstructs some of the norms related to the participatory understanding of various life forms, which is why we want to evoke – inside numerous constructed social imperatives – a reflection on the interdisciplinary possibilities for the (co)existence of bios and techne. Because we perceive nature as an interdisciplinary field of biological, cultural and social phenomena, we wish to provide the concept of “unnatural” with a broader mental frame, inside which it receives a new understanding and different emphases. Here, art and humanism are present in the choice of viewpoint; in an interdisciplinary perspective on the interaction between concepts of natural and unnatural. The so-called “biophobic” paradigms trigger a number of interpretations that can in turn lead to the formation of different ideologies. The artistic goal in this case is not merely related to the scientific research of biological phenomena, but mainly to a requestioning of the concept and paradigms concerning the attitude towards nature through a broader (social) perspective. On the other hand these issues, from a post-anthropocentric perspective, inspire a consideration about the context of temporal dimensions, inside which, among other things, we can ask ourselves about the (non)existence of our own species in the broadest sense. The thinking frame outside the area where natural and unnatural imperatives are accompanied by a fear of the unknown is therefore leaning towards examining ways of coexistence with different phenomena of the living.

TANIA CANDIANI (MX) Five Variations of Phonic Circumstances and a Pause / Pet variacij foničnih okoliščin in pavza Orgle, Klavirski avtomati, Zvočne zgodbe Organ, Pianolas, Sound Stories Pet “poetičnih dejanj, z ozirom na stroje” se z veliko mero tankočutnosti ukvarja z vprašanjem, kako so tehnologije vseh časov narekovale odnose med ustnim sporočanjem in pismenostjo ter posledično ustvarile razmerja moči. Vsako izmed del je del širšega diskurza, ki se nanaša na kulturo poslušanja: slišno, akustične tehnologije, gestikulacija pripovedi ter slišna tekstura glasu. Naprave, ki sestavljajo umetniško delo Pet variacij foničnih okoliščin in pavza so zastavljene kot mehanizmi, posebej namenjeni obdelavi zvokov ali natančneje foničnih okoliščin. Namen naprav je prevod in interpretacija zvočnih dogodkov – hrupov, verbalne komunikacije, branja, pripovedi, mrmranja, skrivnosti, glasbe – tako, da jih spreminjajo iz enega foničnega registra v drugega ter jih pretvarjajo v besedila in kode. Uvrstimo jih lahko nekje

WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE

med znanstveno fantastiko, viktorijanske parne stroje ter najsodobnejšo umetno inteligenco in tehnologije za urejanje besedil. Pet variacij se nanaša na različne transformacije modelov in formatov komunikacije, ki ustvarjajo napetost v odnosu med znanstvenim znanjem in človeškim faktorjem ter dodatno poudarjajo izkušnjo odtujenosti, prisotno v širokem obsegu sodobnih medijev. Kateri del črke je nosilec njenega zvoka? V katerem delu glasbene note prebiva glasba? Je glasba jezik? Ali lahko, kadar govorimo o poeziji, govorimo o sistemu? Tania Candiani (Mexico City, 1974) je prejemnica štipendije Guggenheim scholarship v kategoriji ustvarjalnih umetnosti ter sodelavka mehiškega nacionalnega ustvarjalnega združenja Mexican National System of Creators od leta 2012.

ENG Five “poetic actions in regard to machines” draw with great sen-

sitivity how technologies of all times have dictated relationships between orality and literacy, and created subsequent relationships of power. Each work is part of a discourse surrounding the culture of listening: the audible, acoustic technologies, the gesticulation of narration, the audible texture of the voice. The machines of Five Variations on Phonic Circumstances and a Pause are constituted as mechanisms whose particular use is processing sounds or, more precisely, phonic circumstances. The machines' goal is to translate and interpret sound events – noises, orality, readings, narrations, murmurs, secrets, music – by changing them from one phonic register to another, transmuting them into text and code. These devices, lie somewhere between science fiction, Victorian steam technology and the latest artificial intelligence and word processing technologies. The five variations refer constantly to a number of communications model and format transformations that create tension in the relationship between scientific knowledge and the human factor and additionally emphasize the dislocation experience present in contemporary media´s expansive range. What part of a letter bears its sound? In what part of a musical note does the music reside? Is music a language? Can you speak of a code when speaking of poetry? Tania Candiani (Mexico City, 1974) is a Guggenheim scholarship fellow in the Creative Arts category and she is part of the Mexican National System of Creators since 2012.

KATHY HIGH (US) Blood Wars / Krvne vojne Projekt Blood Wars raziskuje biološke reakcije v obliki tekmovanja med človeškimi belimi krvničkami. Poglablja se v kulturološko in znanstveno zgodovino krvi kot elementa, ki ima tako humanistične in celo nacionalistične, kot tudi naravoslovne in biološke lastnosti. Potek projekta je zasnovan v obliki nadidentifikacije – kot svetovno prvenstvo, turnir, v katerem t. i. celični zmagovalec prejme celo pokal! Participacija posameznika v tekmovanju evocira boljše razumevanje procesov krvnih celic v telesu in delovanja imunskega sistema, v vsebinskem smislu pa se vzpostavi kot kritika imperativov kot sta kult zdravja in večne mladosti. Kathy High je interdisciplinarna umetnica iz New Yorka, ki trenutno deluje na področju živih sistemov, živali ter biologije in umetnosti.

ENG Blood Wars explores biological reactions in the form of a real

tournament between different individuals’ white blood cells. It deals with the culturological and scientific history of blood as an element that has humanistic and even nationalistic, as well as natural science and biological characteristics. The course of the project is conceived in the form of super-identification – as a world championship, a tournament in which the so-called cell winner even receives a cup! Participating individuals in the competition will help to a better understanding of the processes of blood cells in the human body and the functioning of the immune system, while in terms of content it stands as a critique of imperatives such as the cult of health and eternal youth. Kathy High is an interdisciplinary artist from New York currently working with living systems, animals, and biology and art.

NITSAN HOORGIN, JULIAN RUIZ, INBAL COHEN (IL) “Design your city”, 2013 (Inštitut za tehnologijo Holon / Holon Institute of Technology HIT) Gre za platformo, ki meščanom omogoča izražanje želja za njihovo mesto: osvetljena površina, vrsta preprostih miniaturnih predmetov in material za ustvarjanje novih (papir, škarje). Uporabnik izbere predmet in ga umesti na površino. Zaslon sočasno prikazuje oblikovanju namenjeno površino ter predmete na njej. Uporabnik prosto kreira podobo mesta, na koncu lahko s preprostim pritiskom na gumb svojo različico mesta shrani v pomnilnik raznovrstnih in zanimivih dizajnov. Nitsan Hoorgin je dodiplomski študent industrijskega oblikovanja na Holonskem tehnološkem inštitutu. Predstavlja se s platformo, ki jo je kot svoj zaključni projekt razvil v okviru seminarja v interaktivnem laboratoriju Holonškega tehnološkega inštituta.

ENG This is a post that allows citizens to express their wishes for their

city. The platform has an illuminated surface, a bank of miniature objects and some papers, scissors and markers for creating other miniature objects. The user chooses an object and decides where to place it in the surface. A screen is showing the designintended area in real-life and the objects are shown on the screen. The user can “play” with his/her designs until is satisfied and by simply pressing a button the offer is saved in a bank of different and interesting designs. Nitsan Hoorgin is currently a B. Des Industrial Design student at Holon Institute of Technology. His project was developed as a final project within the IDHO course at Holon Institute of Technology.

MAŠA JAZBEC (SI) Apparatus Monolith / Aparat Monolit, 2013 Interaktivna instalacija / Interactive installation Izhodišče projekta je v združevalnem interakcijskem konceptu, ki se izrazi v digitalnem mediju. Principi njegovega delovanja so manipulacija, digitalizacija, aktivatizacija in mreženje. Uporabniško orodje instalacije je konstruirano sproti, pri čemer je ključni postopek interakcija med posameznikom in Monolitom. Tehnološka produkcija je razvojna: ko iz procesa izločimo element trenutka in ga nato s poudarkom izolirano izpostavimo, nagovarjamo mistično dimenzijo odtujitve, ki razkriva magično komponento digitalnega postopka. Represija nad mislijo se spremeni v fluid omrežja, s čimer lahko digitalnost podobe postane predmet njene permanentne manipulacije. Maša Jazbec zaključuje podiplomski študij novih medijev na linški Univerzi za umetnost in design. Deluje na področju videa in interaktivnih instalacij, aktivno sodeluje tudi pri izvedbi ter organizaciji kulturnega programa Trbovlje – novomedijsko mesto v Delavskem domu Trbovlje. Je ustanovna članica umetniške skupine V.A.T. (Vizualna alternativa Trbovlje).

ENG The project’s baseline is set as the concept of a unifying interac-

tion, striving to express itself in a digital medium. Apparatus Monolith functions on the principles of manipulation, digitalization, activation and networking. The key process is the interaction between an individual and the Monolith, while installation’s user tools are being created on the spot. Technological production contains a development component: when we eliminate the element of time from the process and re-expose it as an isolated item, we address the mystical dimension of alienation which reveals the magical component of a digital procedure. Repression of individualistic thinking is transformed into fluid networks; consequently, user’s digital image may become subject to its permanent manipulation. Maša Jazbec is completing her postgraduate studies of New Media at the Linz University of Art and Design. She works in the field of video and interactive installations, taking an active part in the implementation and organization of the cultural program Trbovlje – New Media City at the Labour Home of Trbovlje. She is a founding member of the art group V.A.T. (Visual alternative Trbovlje).

Karl Heinz Jeron (DE) Dingliebe / Ljubezen do stvari Love of Things, 2011 Zvočna instalacija / Sound instalation Dingliebe govori o refleksiji, zaznavanju in tekmovanju med dvema kompleksnima jezikoma. Prvi je jezik znanosti, drugi pa jezik umetnosti, ki mora razumeti znanost, čeprav ne želi postati znanost. Ideje o tem, kaj dobra znanost je ali kaj naj bi bila, ter podobe znanosti in znanstvenosti, so težko razumljiva vprašanja, ki pa niso zaradi svoje kompleksnosti nič manj pomembna. V instalaciji se glede na uporabljene materiale spreminjajo zvoki, njihova barva in glasnost. Na ta način se iz najosnovnejših elementov oblikujejo improvizirane glasbene skladbe. Zvočna instalacija se navezuje na koncept aleatorične glasbe, ki temelji na naključju in improvizaciji, izvajajo pa jo umetniki kot so John Cage, Pierre Boulez ter Iannis Xenakis. Karl Heinz Jeron se je rodil leta 1962 v mestu Memmingen, Nemčija. Živi in dela v Berlinu. Od leta 1999 je član strokovnega združenja likovnih umetnikov Berlinu.

ENG Dingliebe (Love of Things) is about reflection, perception and the

competition between two languages mediating complexity. One is science. The other one is the language of art which has to understand science but doesn‘t want to become it. The idea of what good science is or should be, the images of science and scientificity, are difficult to grasp but no less significant for it. According to the materials used, the sound, the colour of the sound and the volume of the sound are varied. Thus, an improvised piece of music is created from the most simple parts. The sound installation refers to the concept of aleatory music, based on aspects of chance and improvisation, as used by John Cage, Pierre Boulez, and Iannis Xenakis. Karl Heinz Jeron was born in 1962 in Memmingen, Germany. He lives and works in Berlin. Since 1999, Jeron has been a member of the Professional Association of Visual Artists Berlin.

Karl Heinz Jeron (DE) Serendipity / Srečno naključje, 2013 Večkanalna video instalacija z digitalnimi slikovnimi okvirji Multichannel video installation with digital picture frames Serendipity govori o srečnem naključju, ko najdemo nekaj dobrega ali uporabnega, ne da bi to načrtno iskali. Projekt se torej ukvarja z resnično, pravo naključnostjo. V nasprotju z generatorji psevdonaključnih števil je uporabljena Zener dioda, ki ustvarja resnična naključna števila. Diodin hrup lahko tako s pridom uporabimo kot vir resnične slučajnosti, poleg tega pa je poceni tudi sama konstrukcija. Prav tako je preprosta podatkovna zbirka, ki se obdeluje s pomočjo računalniške zvočne kartice (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avalanche_diode). Vsi izdelki tega projekta (besedila, podobe, zvoki) temeljijo na resničnih naključnih številih. V instalaciji se glede na naključna števila spreminjajo zvoki, njihova barva in glasnost. ENG Serendipity deals with the accident of finding something good or

useful while not specifically searching for it. This project is about true coincidence. As opposed to Pseudo-Random Number Generators a Zener diode is used to create true random numbers. It is easy to use the diode noise as a source of true randomness and inexpensive to construct. The data collection is equally simple through a computer sound-card http://en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/Avalanche_diode. All output (texts, images, sounds) of this project is based on true random numbers. According to the random numbers, the sound, the colour of the sound and the volume of the sound are varied. Thus, an improvised piece of music is created.

Uporabnik si ogleda diaprojekcijo nasmejanih obrazov. V trenutku, ko se ob določenem nasmehu tudi sam nasmehne, kamera posname fotografijo, ki postane del diaprojekcije. Z analizo podatkov je mogoče prikazati obseg “smejalne epidemije” in oceniti uporabnike na podlagi nalezljivosti nasmeha. Tovrstna atomizacija videnja ustvarja povratno zanko z “realnim svetom”, ki se aktivira z našo reakcijo na videno. Yuri Klebanov je interaktivni oblikovalec, igralec in tehnološki “odvisnik”.

ENG Smilefection is a showcase of the infectious nature of smiling.

The user is presented with a slideshow of smiling faces. The moment the user is “infected” by one of the smiles appearing on the screen and smiles himself, a webcam snaps a photo and his smiling face becomes a part of the slideshow. Simple data analysis can then show the expansion of the “Smiles Epidemic”, and rate our users by the contagiousness of their smile. The atomization of vision in this respect creates a feedback loop with the “real world”, activated by our reaction to what we see.

Generativna zvočno-svetlobna instalacija uteleša kompleksne teorije sistemov, zasnovane na konceptih in procesih kot sta pojavnost in samo-organizacija. Instalacija temelji na modelih iz različnih področij znanosti, filozofije, biologije, računalništva ter študij umetne inteligence (celični avtomati, nevralne mreže, kibernetika ...) Instalacija raziskuje sonične in kompozicijske možnosti omenjenih konceptov s pomočjo mreže “modulov-delcev”, ki so v interakciji med seboj in z okoljem. Vsak “modul-delec” sledi preprostim individualnim pravilom, vendar zmore v kombinaciji z drugimi generirati tudi kompleksnejše in bolj zapletene vzorce. Oscar Martin (aka Noish) (1977) je eksperimentalni umetnik in neodvisni raziskovalec ter programer, ki deluje na področjih zvočne umetnosti, interaktivnih in generativnih sistemov ter spletne radijske umetnosti.

ENG This generative sound-light installation embodies complex sys-

tems theories based on concepts and processes such as emergency and self-organization. The installation bases on models taken from various fields of science, philosophy, biology, computer science and the study of artificial intelligence (cellular automata, neural networks, cybernetics…) The installation explores the sonic and compositional possibilities of these concepts, using a network of “modules-particles” that interact with each other and the environment. Each “module-particle” follows simple individual rules, but is able to generate more complex and sophisticated patterns when combined with the others.

RICARDO O’NASCIMENTO (ES) E-ansã, 2010 E-ansã je obleka, ki se odziva na prisotnost frekvenčnih signalov iz mobilnih telefonov. Namen dela je preoblikovati nevidni pojav elektromagnetske radiacije v vidni pojav vetra, ki ga ljudje zaznamo s čuti. Obleko sestavlja aluminijasta struktura, v katero so nameščeni ventilatorji, ki jih prekriva na stotine trakov rdeče, oranžne in rumene barve. Spominjajo na trakove za zaklinjanje z vozlanjem in odganjanje bolezni v eni izmed afro-brazilskih mitologij. Obleka tako ne prikazuje zgolj identitete, temveč mistične, tehnološke in kulturne vsebine. Vsebuje elemente čarovništva, ki združuje nevidne sile tradicionalne in tehnološke “magije”. Ricardo O’Nascimento je umetnik in raziskovalec na področju novih medijev in interaktivne umetnosti.

ENG E-ansã is a garment that responds to the presence of frequency

signals from mobile phones. The goal of the artwork is to transform the invisible occurence of electromagnetic radiation into the visible phenomenon of wind, which we can perceive with our senses. The garment consists of an aluminum structure with ventilators covered by hundreds of red, orange and yellow ribbons. They resemble ribbons used for enchantment and repelling diseases in one of the African-Brazilian mythologies. Thus the garment not only represents identity, but also carries a mystical, technological and cultural content. It contains elements of witchcraft that unites the invisible forces of traditional and technological “magic”.

Med drugim je raziskoval variacije na temo poligoniziranih površin, takrat še minimalno prostorsko moduliranih. Po treh desetletjih pa se je poligonizirana površina povsem drugače osmislila in prostorsko umestila. V avtorjevem primeru je nastala kot posledica 3D modelov lastnega telesa in bila nato interpretirana kot notranja pokrajina: sprehod po notranjosti ali zunanjosti lastnega telesa. Vojko Pogačar je diplomiral na ALU v Ljubljani. Je član DLUM in ZDSLU, združenja likovnih umetnikov Paris – Belleville, umetniške skupine 3H30 (Paris – Bordeaux), član umetniške skupine AntArtika (1997). Leta 2010 postane predsednik SZB – Slovenskega združenja za barve, naslednje leto pa s kolegi ustanovi D.COMP – Design center odličnosti v sklopu RAZ:UM-a. Kot izredni profesor poučuje inženirsko oblikovanje na fakulteti za strojništvo univerze v Mariboru.

ENG The author first came in contact with computer in the Eighties

and ventured into the world of expressive and animated drawing and painting. Variations on the theme of polygonized surfaces which at the time were spatially modulated in a minimalistic manner were another one of his interests. After three decades, however, the polygonized surface has gained a completely new meaning and spatial perspective. In the author’s case, it came about as a reaction to a 3D model of his own body and was further interpreted as an inner landscape: a stroll around interiority or exteriority of one’s own body. Vojko Pogačar graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana.

Sim je neke vrste osebni arhiv 800 potnih brisov različnih ljudi, ki so shranjeni v steklenih epruvetah. Epruvete na policah so postavljene zelo nestabilno, tako da jih lahko sleherno gibanje po prostoru prevrne in razbije. Okolje instalacije s steklenimi epruvetami – kubus v velikosti 1 x 3 metre – doseže izjemno vročino, ki jo proizvaja 1000 vatni svetlobni sistem s halogenskimi lučmi in prisili obiskovalca, da se tudi sam začne potiti. Telesne meje med potom obiskovalcev in ostalimi tekočinami v epruvetah se tako zabrišejo. Dragana Sapanjoš je bila rojena leta 1979. Vznemirjujoč občutek nelagodja, mučnosti, ki ga vzbuja njeno delo, je vseskozi prisoten kot predmet njenega raziskovanja.

ENG In a number of her works, the author deals with feelings of

entrapment, anxiety, hopelessness and uncomfortable physical states, which she causes with the circumstances in the installation. Sim is a kind of personal archive, containing the sweat of 800 people, preserved into glass vials. The 800 vials are shakily positioned onto shelves inside an environment extremely sensible to the movements caused by the visitors entrance: each movement inside the room can break the vials. The glass vial installation setting (1 x 3 m cube) produces an extremely high temperature produced from a 1000 W lighting system, which makes the observer sweat himself. The physical borders between the observer’s sweat and the liquids in the other vials are thus blurred. Dragana Sapanjoš was born in 1979. The disturbing feeling of awkwardness that the sculpture evokes has been an essential part of her research.

Ali bi človeška molekularna proizvodna zmogljivost v DNK – kot enem redkih nekoloniziranih biotehnoloških materialov – lahko postala blagovno sredstvo (utemeljeno na sistemu genetskega posojila), kar bi lahko bila ena od naslednjih stopenj evolucije?

Večmedijska instalacija temelji na raziskovanju in eksperimentih z različnimi mikro fluidi in nano materiali. Ferofluidi, ki reagirajo kot živa generativna odzivna površina na magnetno valovanje, bodo proizvajali estetske mikro krajine. Instalacijo sestavljajo manjše petrijevke z nanoroboti, ki so postavljeni v večjo petrijevko s ferofluidi. Mikroskopska kamera, povezana z računalnikom, preko projektorja predvaja reakcije na nano nivoju, kjer imajo kemični procesi drugačne zakonitosti. Ferofluide poganja magnet, nanobote pa peroksid. Robertina Šebjanič (1975) je ustvarjalka na področju intermedije in kulturni omogočevalec. Vsebinsko svoje ideje in koncepte pogosto realizira v sodelovanju z drugimi avtorji, zato njena dela utelešajo interdisciplinarnost in neformalno integracijo. Aleš Hieng - Zergon (1984) je diplomirani inženir kemije in glasbeni izvajalec. Za njegove improvizirane nastope v živo so značilni analogno proizvedeni in modulirani zvoki ter šumi, kombinirani s terenskimi posnetki ter uporaba lastnih elektronskih zvočnih naprav.

ENG This multimedia installation is based on research and experi-

ments with different kinds of microfluids and nanomaterials. Ferrofluids, which react as a live, generative responsive surface to the electromagnetic waves, will produce esthetic micro-landscapes. The installation consists of small-size petridishes with nanorobots positioned inside the larger petridish containing ferrofluids. The microscopic camera, connected to the computer through a projector, shows reactions on the nano-level, where chemical processes function under different laws.

ORTOtip Dodajalne tehnologije / Additive Manufacturing, 2013 Nove tehnologije, ki temeljijo na principu dodajanja materiala v proces (dodajalne tehnologije ali 3D tisk), so del nove industrijske revolucije. Omogočajo izdelavo izdelka v eni stopnji, ob popolni kontroli kakovosti. Dodajalne tehnologije se danes na trgu manifestirajo v obliki trirazsežnih tiskalnikov oziroma 3D printerjev. Z njimi je mogoče natisniti trirazsežen izdelek – 3D model, ki je predhodno zmodeliran v računalniškem okolju. Edinstvena lastnost dodajalnih tehnologij je v njihovi neodvisnosti od geometrijske oblike, saj je z njimi mogoče izdelati kakršenkoli izdelek (sestavljen izdelek ali delujoč mehanizem) in to v enem samem postopku. Pri tem je vseeno, za kakšen izdelek gre oziroma kakšen je njegov namen. Izdelamo lahko študijski model za načrtovanje operacije, sanjski prototip avtomobila, prstan, skodelico ali luč za domačo dnevno sobo. ENG Industrial revolution brought along additive technologies or 3D

printing; these are modern technologies based on the principle of material additive process which allows us to manufacture a product in one step only while having a complete control over its quality. Additive technologies are nowadays featuring on the market in the form of three-dimensional 3D printers. These allow us to print a three-dimensional product – a 3D model previously designed in a computer environment. One of the unique traits of additive technologies lies in their independency from geometric shapes, as it is possible to manufacture any kind of product (an assembled product or a functional mechanism) in only one stage, regardless of the type of product or its purpose; we can create either a study model for operational planning, a dream car prototype, a ring, a cup or a lamp for our living room.

Z mešanjem elektronike, elektronske glasbe in organskih snovi ustvarjamo umetnost, ki govori o zapletenih odnosih med tehnologijo in konceptih narave, ki se pod vplivom evolucije, enako kakor človeštvo, konstantno spreminja. Projekt nagovarja intermedijske konceptualne pristope in spodbuja transdisciplinarno sodelovanje ter preplet sodobnih tehnologij, zvokov in vizualnih podob. Ob tem poskuša vzpostaviti odprt dialog o razmerju med umetnimi in naravnimi okolji, ki so dostopna za vse in izboljšujejo kvaliteto bivanja. ENG MFRU festival and PostArtLab are establishing an experimental

By mixing electronics, electronic music and organic matter we are creating art that reveals the complex relations between technology and the concepts of nature, which – under the influence of evolution – is constantly changing, just like the human kind. The project addresses intermedia conceptual approaches and encourages transdisciplinary collaboration and an interlacement of contemporary technologies, sounds and visual images. It also attempts to create an open dialog about the relationship between artificial and natural environments that are accessible to everyone and improve the quality of living.

Q:aRt združuje delavnico in predavanja o izdelavi QR kod, procesu izdelave šablone za grafite, o načelih informiranja v javnem prostoru, podane pa bodo tudi informacije o potencialu večmedijskih umetnosti. ENG

The project aims to explore the artistic and informative potential of QR codes. Primarily, it is considered an artwork which, through the employment of artistic intervention in the city space, strives to re-examine differences between virtuality and reality. Secondly, it is incorporated in the framework of the festival as its preview event. Q:aRt consists of a workshop and lectures on subjects of QR codes production, the process of making graffiti stencils, the principles of providing information within the public space and the potential of multimedia art.

Predavanja / Lectures: WILLIAM MYERS: Biodesign BioDesign: Nature + Science + Creativity je naslov knjige, ki sta jo leta 2012 izdala Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) iz New Yorka ter založba Thames & Hudson iz Londona. Delo nas seznanja s sodobnimi oblikovalskimi in umetniškimi projekti, za katere se uporabljajo živi materiali in ki zajemajo širok izbor načinov izvedbe oz. uporabe, od arhitekture in oglaševanja, od betona do oblačil. Ta dela nam razkrivajo vizionarske strategije za izboljšanje ekološke učinkovitosti objektov okrog nas, estetske možnosti, ki jih omogoča nova biotehnologija in provokativne eksperimente, ki izpostavijo tako priložnosti, kot tudi nevarnosti manipulacije življenja za človekove namene.

Filozofsko prespraševanje, od kod prihajamo in kam gremo, se je v kapitalističnem svetu prevesilo v, kje smo in v katerem členu prehranjevalne verige se nahajamo. Smo bodisi na tisti strani, ki razglablja o ekološko pridelani hrani in gensko spremenjenih organizmih, ali tam, kjer reciklirajo tudi hrano in ostanke iz restavracij ponovno obdelajo in ponudijo kot nizkocenovni obrok, za katerega nekateri pravijo, da je izvrsten, večina pa nič, ker si česa drugega ne morejo privoščiti. Hrana postaja vse bolj luksuz sodobnega sveta in verjetno bo sčasoma samo še manj dvomov, kaj jemo, samo da nekaj imamo, čeprav so številke, koliko se je dnevno zmeče proč, astronomske, in tudi gastronomske, saj je to dovoljeno le peščici. Hrana je kot ultimativni material reciklaže, kot rešitev stiske, kot možnost preživetja, kot izraba vsega, kar nam ponuja ta svet, preden ga požre narava. ENG The first, second, third world ... but what about the fourth and

fifth? Philosophical re-questioning, where we come from and where we are going is in the capitalist world shifted to where we are and in which link of the food chain we are located. We are either on the side that ponders about organic food and genetically modified organisms, or where also food and scraps from the restaurant are recycled and then re-processed and offered as a low-cost meal, which some say it is excellent, but most nothing, because something else they can not afford. Food is becoming more and more a luxury of the modern world and probably there will eventually be even less doubts, what we eat, just to have something, even if the numbers, how much of it is daily thrown away, are astronomical and also gastronomical, as this is permitted only to few. Food is like the ultimate material of recycling, as a solution of distress, as the possibility of survival, as use of all that we’re offered by this world, before it is devoured by nature.
