Passages. Travels In Hyperspace

Domenico Quaranta
The exhibition Passages. Travels in Hyperspace (16.10.2010 - 21.02.2011), clearly represents an attempt for the LABoral Centro de Arte y Creación industrial of Gijon, Asturias, to make a qualitative leap. It doesn't mean that previous exhibitions were less ambitious - the big events the center has been hosting, starting with the first productive effort (Feedback, 2007), have few equal in the world. Indeed, the Spanish center has been curated by the world best curators (from Christiane Paul to Steve Dietz and Susanne Jaschko) who have been able to create projects that could not be conceived anywhere else....

Colorito. An Interactive Renaissance Of Coulour

Lorenzo Taiuti
All at once, in the irregular Italian digital scenario, an interesting exhibition has appeared. It just ended on the 11th November 2010 in an unsuspectable location, Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence. Its title is Colorito: an interactive renaissance of colour, curated by Luca Farulli (Accademia delle Belle Arti, Venice), Andruid Kerne (Interface Ecology Lab/Texas A&M University) and Frank Nack (ISLA/University of Amsterdam) who proposed a mix of traditional names of digital art and young artists, linked by their interest for colour. This exhibition was organized for the first time in Italy the last 25-29th October 2010, during the ACM Multimedia 2010 international conference (the worldwide premier multimedia conference organized by the Association for Computing Machinery). The event was coordinated by Professor Alberto del Bimbo, University of Florence, and Professor Shih Fu Chang, Columbia University, New York.... READ MORE...

The digital oblivion International Symposium

Redazione Digicult
As part of the broader research project digital art conservation this intermational symposium aims to investigate the future of our digital cultural memory, focusing in particular on the preservation of computer-based art. For millennia, transmission systems with long-term stability shaped our sense of time and of history, helping form our image of ourselves and of the world.

Are You ready for TV?

Redazione Digicult
Just when it seems that television as we have known it is over, we are asked if we are ready for more.

It is not an exhibition about television, but one conceived from the place of television. Its aim is to study how the diverse ways of grasping images and the life of concepts contribute to tracing the horizon of our cultural present.... READ MORE...
