ciao AHA, come state?
Sono Noura, forse qualcuno si ricorderà di me, ero parte della lista quasi
10 anni fa assieme al collettivo AutArt nato all'interno di Nuove
Tecnologie per l'Arte a Brera nel 2008.
Per chi, lecitamente, non si ricordasse affatto mi ripresento : vivo a
Milano dove studio filosofia e campo come artista visiva [ma la massima
aspirazione é costituire un gruppo che si occupi di fare scherzi pubblici,
spero avremo occasione di riparlarne :) ]
Vi scrivo per condividere con voi due open call organizzate da Freeport
<
https://freeport.institute/>, un programma di studi indipendente e
sperimentale basato sul percorso creato dal festival The Influencers
<
https://theinfluencers.org/en>, che penso conosciate.
Spero che possano interessarvi (trovate tutte le info e le deadlines in
basso)
Grazie, vi abbraccio!
a presto
*F R E E P O R T 1*
Freeport is an independent study program for a world of humans and machines
: the 2020 edition will bring two laboratories dedicated to create a
twenty-first
century cartography and the other, aims to explore the meme culture.
The 1st one aims to map contemporary complex systems and infrastructures of
exploitation.
Participants will be led into a roller coaster trip through the nano scale
dimension of battery molecules to the contemporary production and
distribution supply chains, Facebook’s sophisticated algorithmic factory
and fashionable corporate devices that operate as planetary-scale systems
of knowledge extraction under the futurist label of machine learning and
the likes.
The 2nd lab it's an exploration into memetic symbolism, the history of the
weird aesthetics, identity politics, a collective nosedive into the depths
of web.
The aim is to map collective creative production and develop new strategies
for aesthetic and cultural intervention through networking and cooperation.
