  • From Multimedia to Software Art Installations
    Collaborative and Transdisciplinary practices in Cyberart: from Multimedia to Software Art installations Diana Domingues Eliseo Reategui NTAV Lab – Universidade de Caxias do Sul/CNPQ Mestrado em Comunicação e Linguagens – Universidade Tuiuti do Paraná Brazil How to synthesize Leonardo? The efficiency of collaborative practices related to complex systems in Cyberart dissolves the old rupture and the well-known historical divergences between artists and scientists. The main point of convergence is when all disciplines investigate the same issues, all sciences become one unique science. Interactivity, immersion, autonomy and mobile connections in Cyberart require collaborative practices related to Science of Complexity and its emergent proprieties. Speculative software are written to respond for artistic projects and they place art in the three recent realms of “engineering art”, “engineering culture” and “engineering nature”1. These investigation fields respond to the high level of Cyberart’s philosophical, technical, biological, social, ethical and emotional implications of scientific discoveries. A variety of disciplines related to the use of computers and networks in genetics, engineering, biotechnology, cognitive sciences, communication, anthropology, computer science, and other areas require sometimes a scripted software when applied in art practices. Writing software is not new in art practices, it has been done since the beginning of computer art, mainly in the development of formalistic aesthetics. However, artists embrace nowadays the design of adequate software by taking algorithmic information content for searching “rules” to be included in the code. Art works in cyberspace search for forms of communication close to the expansion of life in the post-human culture. The focus is the human factor of technologies or the humanization of technologies in the cross- boundaries with creativity and changes in daily life2.

C.P. 04510, México, D.F. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Bioart is a new art form with specific characteristics and aims. In order to state this, one should provide a defi- nition of bioart that explains its novelty and the extent to which it differs from traditional art forms. Bioart is the essential form of expression of our techno-scientific epoch, bringing about an interaction of science, technology and art that requires explanation in order not only to understand it as a new art form but also a possible way for our techno-scientific epoch to develop a more appropriate means of artistic expression. The traditional philosophy of art, which has created various definitionsANNALES of · Ser.art overhist. the sociol. course · 22 ·of 2012 the · past2 decade, is not sufficient for analyz- ing the ontological consequences of bioart. Therefore, this paper explores the possibility of creating a theoretical framework that is drawn from the discipline of aesthetic ontology in order to examine the ontological implications of bioart. : bioart, aesthetic ontology, art definition, transaesthetic, art and science LA BIOARTE SULL’ORLO DELL’ONTOLOGIA ESTETICA SINTESI La bioarte è una nuova forma d’arte con caratteristiche e obiettivi specifici.

  • Rematerialized Tendencies in Media Art? from Silicon to Carbon-Based Art
    Sociología y tecnociencia/Sociology and Technoscience: Special Issue: Artefacts REMATERIALIZED TENDENCIES IN MEDIA ART? FROM SILICON TO CARBON-BASED ART ¿TENDENCIAS REMATERIALIZADORAS EN EL MEDIA ART? DEL SILICIO AL CARBONO EN EL ARTE DANIEL LÓPEZ DEL RINCÓN Universitat de Barcelona – University of Barcelona [email protected] Recibido: 24/VI/2012. Aceptado: 19/XII/2012. Abstract: The importance of digitality in Media Art theories consolidated the aesthetic of dematerialization, as it shifted the value of materiality in this field. However, the advent of new forms of technological art, such as Bio Art, which uses laboratory technologies in an aesthetic way to manipulate life, demonstrates the crisis of this paradigm and the trend of rematerialization. This paper investigates the role of materiality, even in the more dematerialized realms of Media Art: the digital technologies. We focus on two art forms that combine new technologies and life sciences: Artificial life, which involves the intangible features of Media Art, and Bio Art, which interprets materiality in a radical manner, by choosing life as the raw material for artistic creation. Key Words: materiality, inmateriality, Digital Art, A-life Art, Bio Art. Resumen: La importancia de lo digital en las teorías del Media Art consolida la estética de la desmaterialización al alterar el valor de la meterialidad en este campo. En cualquier caso la llegada de nuevas formas de arte tecnológico, como el Bio Art, que usa tecnologías de laboratorio para manipular vida de una forma estética, demuestra la crisis de este paradigma y la tendencia a la rematerialización. En este artículo se aborda el papel de la materialidad, incluso en los ámbitos más desmaterializados del Media Art, los de las tecnologías digitales.

    NEW MEDIA ART WORKS BIOART, DIGITAL MEDIA, INSTALLATIONS & COPYLEFT From The Art Newspaper, Vol. XVII, No. 191 May 2008 “[New York] MoMA Exhibit Dies Five Weeks into Show: One of the central works in the exhibition ‘Design and the Elastic Mind’ [titled] Victimless Leather, a small jacket made up of embryonic stem cells taken from mice has died. The artists, Oron Catts and Ionat Zurr, say the work…expanded too quickly…[.] [The] curator for the show says she had to make the decision to turn off the life-support system for the work, basically ‘killing’ it. [The] jacket ‘started growing, growing, growing until it became too big. And [the artists] were back in Australia, so I had to make the decision to kill it. And you know what? I felt I could not make the decision. I’ve always bee pro-choice and all of a sudden I’m here not sleeping at night about killing a coat…That thing was never alive before it was grown.” Article Summary: New Media art, which includes bio-art, digital, video, interactive, installation, or variable media art, poses unique challenges to artists, curators, and collectors alike in its acquisition, exhibition, and preservation. This paper does not explore all the issues raised by these New Media works; rather it introduces the reader to the types of New Media works, some of the major artists working in the medium, and legal issues concerning New Media works in the areas of copyrights, visual artists moral rights, and contractual issues. It also discusses international jurisdictional considerations for digital works on the internet, with a discussion of CopyLeft licenses.

  • Biotech Aesthetics: Exploring the Practice of Bio Art
    Culture and Organization, 2014 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/14759551.2013.836194 Biotech aesthetics: Exploring the practice of bio art Anne Byerley (a) and Derrick Chong (b) (a) Independent Scholar, London, UK (b) School of Management, Royal Holloway University of London, Egham, Surrey TW20 0EX, UK; [email protected] (corresponding author) 1 Biotech aesthetics: exploring the practice of bio art Abstract Advances in biotechnology include contemporary artists working in laboratories to create living and semi-living works of art. This paper offers an account of how bio art can be read as an emerging contemporary art practice of the early twenty-first century. This draws on the art-historical precedent of Marcel Duchamp, who transformed objects from commonplace existence into works of art, and contemporary theories of art. Empirical data, in the form of interviews with leading bio art practitioners Oron Catts, Eduardo Kac, Kira O’Reilly, Stelarc and Paul Vanouse, are used to study how artists navigate between disciplines. In doing so, we discuss bio art as a critical practice based on a communal ethos. Key words Anti-aesthetic Artistic practice Bio art Biotechnology Duchamp 2 Biotech aesthetics: exploring the practice of bio art ‘[T]he withdrawal of the experience of aesthetic pleasure from art’ – Alexander Alberro on the meaning of conceptual art, October 70 (Autumn 1994, 132). An introduction to bio art Advances in biotechnology are rapid, with the challenge of manipulating human nature so imminent that the dialogue can no longer be reserved for scientists. Indeed theorist Eugene Thacker (in Thacker and Ruiz 2006, 5) has invited research on ‘the aesthetics of the biotech industry’, and contemporary artists are making a contribution by exploring just this permeability between disciplines.
