Technology is defining how we are living

robots inspired by nature

What we are doing is developing for the society - that was the feeling for the artists

These artists are some of the founders for working with electronics - they form somehow the base that we currently built on; had they used technology in a different way would our works be also different now?

tasks

Homework: task week 6: Eco-Art

Homework: task week 5: Algorithms in Art

Many links don't work for me and
I love so many of these performative pieces but have yet to understand their algorithmic characteristics >> algorthmic because the body carries out a set of instructions as an algorithm does, these pieces can be recreated by the set of instructions - the instructions / the code is the artwork, not the performance moment

How is self referentially meant?

self executing ..?

Algorithmic art by Ian Cheng - using a system of code to create individual interacting entities

Further artists that came up: 

Some artists confuse new materials with new ideas.

To which degree can we hand over decisions to the computer - how much of the world is included in the rules we program into the computer?

Perceptual art - is not = conceptual art
computer art gives only impression of subjectivity, chain of decision-making is very opaque
Code = language of abstraction from our real world

Historical line of argumentation - so many things are hidden today
> Roman Kirschner + Gordon Paths

Memory + decisionmaking - Memristor
structured software - 'roots' artwork: organic, adapting - kupfer sulfat crystals
the more we rely on the interent the more our experiences turn into echo chambers - enforced feedback

What we did not know when we set up the system is not in it ... will be left behind- "we have to decide, because only with decision will there be the basis to move forward" - but there is so much possible error in this.

How to create systems that actually connect to the world and go beyond self referentiality?

Questions: 

For presentation 3 it's titled VR predecessors - but does the task/artefact need to be sight based or any sensory alteration?

>> it's about body as interface > any kind of sense

For algorithms in art task 'own environment' means it should be our room or have some special significance to us ? or can be done in the nature?
> own means anything , nature is most suitable

Aufgabe 4 - invent a performance; meaning reenact his performance but create an own sequence ? how long ? Why photographed and not filmed? & are the two references to the two artists to be worked out separately or should the performance relate to Walter Pichler's ideas of space? /Should it be clearly informed by them?

Aufgabe 8 ist etwas sonderbar formuliert ? Soll man nur über arbeiten schreiben/referieren die nicht in der Präsentation sind? Woher würde man die Arbeit von Davod Rokeyby kennen, presentation 1 ?

Task 9 for media architecture and performance 'media in the city' but a lot of the works are not really in the city, rather they are only public art and especially the artwork by Hyunkoo Lee I don't understand in this context?? The examples are so far apart in a way how would a list make sense ? things they all share? aspects that might include them in this field?

Bioart from the mail or from the upload - no task yet?

Also FIY some links aren't correctly linked? e.g. for Algorithms in Art

aesthetic of system : art and comm https://beta.artcom.de/en/?project=kinetic-sculpture

closed system with independant agents that develop a behaviour on it's own - auto-poetic - bottom up - metallic spheres with own agency - we are just the moderator of the system - to physics ( makes us with our physical presence part of the game) interactivity moving away from pure representation of aesthetics

beta.artandcom.de centralised piece - many motors and one is directing, one matstermind - hierarchial - top down - set of rules/formula
as artist we should become aware of these underlying aesthetics of a system
to technology and what it can produce - just representation

interim presentation could be : applying for funding

final presentation: stage that it could be exhibited
short, precise, text ( 3 sentences if the right ones can be enough)

investigate into yourself if you are a designer or an artists
for grants/funding; precondition: have several finished works on your website

Homework: Task 3 : VR predecessors

Homework: Task 4

Algorithms = set of rules

> perform : create circle in park with Acorns or Tree-cones

I want to recreate this performative sculpture in the park with 'tannezapfen'

Will do 'Körperkonfigurationen' in our empty apartment.

I like the idea of creating very long nails in a different material, which would influence the sense of touch / tactility.

Go with - reference points
Go against -counterpoles
Body meets geometries of architecture
> deflate the body to the status of a spatial component > element in a lifeless sculpture
>> exaggerate this, add to it by being monotone in colour: Black
> white would be more interesting because I would collect dirt trace from one shape into the next creating a causality between them

> even considered morph suit?
> or more 'me' painting whole body - too extreme for the time frame and circumstances

each pose represents or alludes to an emotional or mental state
