When we set off on this cultural and artistic odyssey, the digital arts were considered entirely experimental, and not integrated into the business side of the art world. thanks to Piero gilardi, orietta brombin and claudio cravero for their co-operation in today, media art is an important and accepted artistic language, attracting an audience of organising the events at the Park of living art, turin. growing proportions. until not so long ago, digital art was just beginning to be taken into consideration. today we talk about art in the digital age. Special mention should be made of fabrizio arcuri, mario martone and lorenzo barello for the strong working partnership built between Prospettiva2 and Share festival. Share feStival will continue not to celebrate technology, but rather to investigate it, showcasing projects that question technology's influence on culture, and looking into how, thank you to the director of the regional museum of natural Science, ermanno de biaggi, for better or for worse, technology pervades and has changed our lives. this is why Share for having hosted the Share festival for a second consecutive year. feStival this year is changing its official scope of interest (and subtitle), focusing on art and culture in the digital age, shifting the adjective digital towards age, when before it was paired thanks also to the people who worked with us to create the Youth museum programme – with art. this change of paradigm has been shaped by the growing pervasiveness of the Sergio ricciardone and roberto Spallacci from clubtoclub, and Silvio mossetto from digital in society ― a process that has just begun, but has already led to computers becoming musica90. an everyday object, on par with any other home appliance. finally, we would like to thank all the public and private institutions that year after year have this year Share festival is featuring a series of exhibitions, conferences, dialogues, workshops, given the Share festival their full support. screenings and performances focused on the topic of Smart miStakeS – to help broaden our minds, sharpen our skills, and inspire creative expression. chiara garibaldi and Simona lodi a cultural, social and artistic counter-strategy lies in the hybridization and creation of new with luca barbeni and luciana corbo spaces for communication via the unexpected, mutation and unintended use. today, using technology in unexpected ways means opting out of the dominant life paradigm, rooted in a certain strain of liberalism rather than in the liberty of knowledge. until just two decades ago, creative approaches to technology could only be found among artists and in the academic and military spheres. from a niche interest, today all of society is under its spell. the task of the Share festival is to shine a spotlight on these trends, outlining a scene in constant change. like every year, the festival is hosting an exhibition of the large-scale art installations of the six finalists of the Share Prize, which this year attracted 270 entries from twenty different countries, on show in the wonderful exhibition spaces on the second floor of the regional museum of natural Science. the winner of the Share Prize 2010 will be announced at the inauguration of the festival, at a special award ceremony. the programme includes a thematic exhibition on Smart miStakeS and an interesting workshop tied to this year's special project by the artists of les liens invisibles. new this year is the special Symposium on Smart miStakeS , in which leading keynoters explore the artistic and cultural import of error in three main fields of interest: technological and media mistakes (the relationship between humans and machines, dysfunction, and transmission errors), biological mistakes (mutation, biodiversity and living art) and chance discovery (serendipity, random discovery, accidents and unexpected variance). a special thanks goes to the Share Prize judges Jurij krpan, andy cameron, fulvio gianaria and bruce Sterling for the great skill and professionalism with which they assessed all the entries for the prize, and for having fulfilled the arduous task of choosing six finalists, selecting the winner and assigning the special commendation. 10 inStitutionS inStitutionS 11 maSSimo giordano guido bolatto rISegTionIe TPUiemZoInOte NcoI uncillor for economic develoPment torino chamber of commerce michele coPPola regione Piemonte councillor for cultural and Youth affairS the torino chamber of commerce, with almost 238,000 members, has always played a leading administrative and promotional role for business, offering a one-stop-shop for a the 6th Piemonte Share festival will be presenting a series of exhibitions, conferences and diversified range of business services.
