  2. Living Liberia Fabric

    The Living Liberia Fabric, initiated in affiliation with the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of Liberia, is an interactive, web-based narrative supporting the goal of lasting peace after years of civil war (1979-2003). It links concerns for liberation, dignity, and the future with needs for cultural foundations, human rights, truth, and reconciliation. Our system is based in Liberia's culture and the specifics of the conflicts, hence representing our cultural computing perspective.

  3. Sonne Ordklip

    "Netudstillingen SONNE ORDKLIP er delt op i 14 serier, hvoraf nogle er tematiske eftevanlige egensindigt encyklopædiske principper, mens andre mere direkte flugter langs et enkelt, gennemgående klip-ord, følgende står fast: DK-KULTUR-SOC, EGO-PSYK, GA, LITT, ZOO, ORD, BØ, BØRN, LIG, UD, SPROG, KUNST, MAD, LYRISK NATUR Det er tekster - eller hvad man nu skal kaldet det - der i deres insisterende overstadige leg med sprogets betydning og visualitet ikke kender deres lige i nyere dansk poesi. Vi skal helt tilbage til de gode, gamle dadaisters collager og montager - Kurt Schwitters’ f.eks. - for at finde konkurrencedygtige paralleller." - http://www.afsnitp.dk/aktuelt/10/sonneordklip.html

  5. ISEA2015 Disruption

    ISEA2015’s theme of DISRUPTION invites a conversation about the aesthetics of change, renewal, and game-changing paradigms. We look to raw bursts of energy, reconciliation, error, and the destructive and creative forces of the new. Disruption contains both blue sky and black smoke. When we speak of radical emergence we must also address things left behind. Disruption is both incremental and monumental. In practices ranging from hacking and detournement to inversions of place, time, and intention, creative work across disciplines constantly finds ways to rethink or reconsider form, function, context, body, network, and culture. Artists push, shape, break; designers reinvent and overturn; scientists challenge, disprove and re-state; technologists hack and subvert to rebuild. Disruption and rupture are fundamental to digital aesthetics. Instantiations of the digital realm continue to proliferate in contemporary culture, allowing us to observe ever-broader consequences of these effects and the aesthetic, functional, social and political possibilities that arise from them.

  7. Archäologie der literarischen Kommunikation, II

    Not everything that becomes the past is destined to be lost. There are methods of sanctification and tabooing that create a culture of sharp boundaries, solid contours, and lasting resistance to creeping change. Such procedures, which put an end to the flow of tradition, include canonization that determines what needs to be remembered and censorship that excludes what needs to be forgotten. The volume tries to fathom in individual case studies, which historical challenges are there, which put life - to speak with Nietzsche - under the contrast of burning and smoking. The cover picture represents an allegory of the Jurisprudentia. The ceiling painting by Rudolf Gleichauf in the Alte Aula of the University of Heidelberg (1886) symbolizes the connection between canon and censorship, in the sense of that Jewish tradition, according to which God knows book and sword, sefär we-sayif, from the sky.

  8. Attention à la marche! Mind the Gap!

    Attention à la marche! Mind the Gap! questions the place of electronic literature in a digital culture. Present since the 1980s, electronic literary practices must now adapt and renew themselves in light of the proliferation and massive use of digital devices in our lives. How do they make us think about literature in its broadest sense and its current occurrences? What forms do they take in public and urban spaces? How do they articulate our relationships to the body, to culture, to our representations of ourselves and the world?

  9. Berlin Remix

    "Berlin: Symphony of a Great City" by Walter Ruttman (1927) is the central work in the genre of "City Films" which thrived internationally in the 1920s and 1930s. "Berlin Remix" is a generative video installation based on this seminal work. The original film has been deconstructed into its individual shots, which are placed in a shots database. "Berlin Remix" investigates cinematic style and technique through the creation and presentation of an ongoing series of short films drawn from this database. Each of these short films reflects a different facet of the original work, and each film is unique - differing from the others in cinematic style, thematic content or both. The artist has defined a number of style templates through analysis of various documentary films, particularly those in the City Film genre. The templates incorporate different content themes (such as work, recreation, culture, class) and a variety of cinematic manipulations (such as sequencing pattern, editing pace, transition choice, and visual treatment). The templates will use real-time algorithmic operations to call up shots and apply the cinematic treatment.

  10. Towa Towa

    Aaron Oldenberg gives new meaning to the phrase "bird's eye view" in Towa Towa, his visually-striking work of digital art steeped in Guyanese and Trinidadian culture. In addition to the whimsical fun of the challenge viewers take on as the presiding judges of bird debates, what strikes us about Towa Towa is its heavy emphasis on viewer involvement. Instead of voyeur, the viewer's role is of active participant, allowing for a more complete–if only digital–form of cultural immersion.
