  • MAKING REALITY REALLY REAL Ascott | Gangvik | Jahrmann TEKS
    MAKING REALITY REALLY REAL Interactions between the arts, technology, and the sciences, specially in respect of the mind and consciousness, are leading to the emergence of new artistic forms, technological systems, and cultural behaviours, as well as to re-evaluation of the hegemony of western M AKING science, and the significance, both spiritually and materially, of the practices and paradigms of other societies. Over the past eleven years, the Consciousness Reframed conferences have been convened in Europe and the Far East, involving leading-edge artists, scientists and scholars in an emergent discourse that is transdisciplinary, transcultural and syncretic. This year, hosted by TEKS, and as part of the Meta.Morf biennial of art and technology, an international REAL ITY group of experts met in this context, under the rubric Making Reality Really Real. Some 60 provocative, visionary, poetic and pragmatic perspectives, proposals and projects are published here, including papers by Roy Ascott, Marco Bischof, James Gimzewski, Luis Eduardo Luna, Ryohei Nakatsu and Victoria Vesna.
