CAFAM Lecture Info | Making Experiences: Embodiment in Interactive and Robotic Arts - Louis-Philippe Demers

2019-05-13

Leonardo Art, Science and Technology Lecture SeriesMaking Experiences: Embodiment in Interactive and Robotic ArtsSpeaker: Louis-Philippe DemersDate: 16.05.2019 ThursdayTime: 18:30-20:00Language: English (with Chinese translation)Venue: CAFA Art MuseumCo-organized by CAFA Visual Art Innovation Institute,CAFA Center for Art and Technology, CAFA Art Museum, Chronus Art Center In collaboration with Leonardo / ISAST About the Lecture This talk reports on experiences with systems, spaces and robots in the context of my artistic explorations.  I will address embodied experiences, looking at physicality as opposed to virtuality and at analog as opposed to digital computation in the realm of Digital/Electronic Media.The far-reaching and often surprising implications of embodiment will be explored. This presentation will look at several levels of embodiment, from the ecological to the social, from the perceptual perspective of the audience to the perspective of the robotic agents itself.Rooted in causality and animacy, the qualia of a robot behavior or is multi-layered, multi-faceted and it results from the simultaneous composition of cues ranging from the morphology to the very situatedness of the object in movement.  Physical spaces and objects have a material existence whilst audiences share this very same world. Our body is not primarily in space: it is of it. This leads not only to tangible interfaces and immersive spaces but also creates a contributing cultural context as an integral part of the experiences.We share and identify to biological, social and cultural experiences with performers on the stage. Phenomenologists and theatre theorists claim that these experiences are vastly grounded in the experiential body. What happens when we inject artificial constructions not only on the stage but also in tacitly human social scenarios?In the course of these investigations, I started developing artworks entailing singular bodily experiences such as being touched by a robot (The Blind Robot), being controlled by an exoskeleton (Inferno), merging with machine (Devolution) and merging proprioception between machine and human (Repeat).Having these radical encounters at the liminal space bordering man and machine, it forces audiences to (re)consider their human bodies and (re)visit their embodied experiences. About the Speaker Louis-Philippe Demers makes large-scale installations and performances. He participated in more than seventy artistic and stage productions and has built more than 375 machines. Demers' works have been featured at major venues such as Theatre de la Ville, Lille 2004, Expo 1992 and 2000, Sonambiente, ISEA, Siggraph and Sonar. He received six mentions and one distinction at Ars Electronica, the first prize of Vida 2.0, mentions at Vida 12.0 and 15.0, two jury recommendations at the Japan Media Arts Festival, the Interactive prize for Lightforms 98 and six prizes for Devolution including two Helpmann Awards. Demers holds a Ph.D. on robotic performances from Plymouth University. He was Professor at the Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe, affiliated to the world renowned Zentrum für Kunst und Medientechnologie (ZKM, Germany). Afterwards, Demers joined the Interaction and Entertainment Research Centre of the Nanyang Technological University (NTU) where he was also Associate Professor at the School of Art, Design and Media. Demers is now Professor of Creative Innovation and Director of the Creative Lab at the Queensland University of Technology.Inferno(2015)Robotic performance projectThe Blind Robot(2012)Touch and Interactive Robotics

ICOM Calls for New Museum Definition

2019-05-13

The International Council of Museums (ICOM) is calling for a new museum definition on its official website.Founded in Paris in 1946, the non-governmental organization is one of the world’s most influential organizations on museology. ICOM has made 7 amendments to the definition of museum since its founding. The current definition was adopted at ICOM’s 22nd General Assembly in Vienna, Austria, in 2007.“A museum is a non-profit, permanent institution in the service of society and its development, open to the public, which acquires, conserves, researches, communicates and exhibits the tangible and intangible heritage of humanity and its environment for the purposes of education, study and enjoyment.”As museums have rapidly transformed, adjusted and re-invented their principles, policies and practices, ICOM believes the current definition could no longer reflect the challenges, manifold visions and responsibilities.There’s no specific requirements for the format of the new definition, though ICOM would like it to reflect a few parameters, as listed below:The deadline for new proposals is May 20, 2019. So far, ICOM has already published here nearly 200 proposals, 5 of which are from China. Decision on a new definition will be made in Kyoto this September, during ICOM’s 25th General Conference.Source | ICOMEditor | Lu Yufan

CAFAM Lecture Info | "Location": Historical Writing, Chinese Contemporary Art Practices and Interactions

2019-05-13

As Chinese contemporary art engaged closely with international art scene during the past four decades, it developed a conflicting and complicated context that represents both the cultural strategies during local modernization, and the post-traditional and modern dialectic developments against the globalized background. In other words, it ic because of this complex self-adjustment of cultural psychology and spiritual system, that Chinese art, its history and methodology today cannot be simply defined by its national identity and culture.Artist Wang Gongxin received his art education in China and the US. His art practices are shown in major museums and galleries all over the world. This time, Wang will base his lecture on his new solo exhibition “Under the Shadow - About BIAO”, introduce a series of “site-specific” works, and elaborate on his experimental thinkings about the historical context of Chinese contemporary art and social issues. Dong Bingfeng, research fellow in the School of Intermedia Art, China Academy of Art, will give his lecture about the concept of location and place, and their inter-relation with historical writing. In response to Wang Gongxin’s personal practices and the multi-dynamic development of Chinese contemporary art history, Dong’s speech will dig into the open-ended meaning of “How contemporary can be history?” (as per Huang Zhuan).The symposium will be hosted by Professor Song Xiaoxia of Central Academy of Fine Arts.Wang Gongxin, BIAO, 1995, Halle 10.
