    Press release | May 30, 2016 ­ The Hague, NL International Festival for digital and trans­disciplinary art and creativity 12th Edition September 22nd ­ 25th, 2016 TodaysArt 2016 announces the first wave of artists for it’s 12th edition. Pantha du Prince, Nosaj Thing & Daito Manabe, Hiroaki Umeda and NONOTAK will headline this year’s festival with Dutch premières. TodaysArt is pleased to collaborate with a.o. SHAPE, We are Europe, Lisson Gallery and The Creators Project. TodaysArt, the roving festival for digital and trans­disciplinary art and creativity, returns to the city center of The Hague. The previous two editions of TodaysArt were based in Scheveningen, the coastal capital of The Netherlands, which emphasized visual art on and around The Pier. This year’s festival will take place from September 22nd to the 25th of September. Once again it will turn it’s focus on the performing art. The opening statement of this year’s festival is a new Drone Shadow of the English artist, James Bridle. An essential question of this year festival is ‘Who owns the city’. With Drone Shadow, TodaysArt asks this question as it relates to the public sphere of the city’s town square. 'Drone Shadow is not just a picture of a drone. It is a diagram of a political system. Drones are also avatars of all of the invisible networked systems that surround us on a daily basis. They stand in for every remote connection we make. Like the internet, they allow us to see and act at a distance ­ but they may also be used against us and others.

Many medium-sized towns now have their own media festivals. The striking thing is that these festivals are found across the country and not just in the urban Randstand conglomeration of Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague. Some of the festivals have been going for more than ten years (Impakt in Utrecht, DEAF in Rotterdam) others have developed in the last few years (STRP in Eindhoven, Gogbot in Enschede) and there are new additions (Fiber in Amsterdam, Oddstream in Nijmegen). Besides being a national phenomenon, these media festivals are now assuming roles previously played by museums and galleries, namely, that of curator, agent, and commissioner. Virtueel Platform has compiled this publication to map this growing phenomenon better.

  • HC Gilje Selected Works 2000-2016
    HC Gilje selected works 2000-2016 video:https://vimeo.com/182521274 beacon (2016) Three light projectors each create a beam of light that slowly scans the exhibition space. The light projectors are made of a glass cylinder filled with water and a light that rotates around it. The water works as a lens for the light, and the combination of the glass and water gives the projected light a particular structure that changes subtly as the light moves around the glass. Each light projector is like an inverted light house, the light beams illuminating the walls and the floor and casting shadows of the audience and the other light projectors onto the walls. The installation was created for Gilje´s solo show at Kristiansand Kunsthall in 2016. video:https://vimeo.com/182521275 speiling (2016) Speiling was created for the exhibition Mitt Landskap (My landscape) in Bodø 2016 where a younger generation of artists created works inspired by painter and sculptor Gunnar Tollefsen. In his contribution Gilje created a light projection in a custom built space. Gilje was mainly concerned with the horizon: between ocean and the sky, the floor and the wall. Two organic forms, one black and one white, move and transform on a red background. Projected Light bounces off the floor onto the wall, and light projected on the wall is mirrored on the shiny floor. Thus new forms are created in the meeting between the floor and the wall in the line of the horizon. video:https://vimeo.com/176912614 mikro (2016) Mikro is a series of improvised collaborative performances between HC Gilje (video) and Justin Bennett (sound) that draws its raw material from the immediate surroundings.

  • Todaysart 2019 International Festival for Art, Music and Technology, the Hague - the Netherlands 19 - 22 September 2019
    TodaysArt 2019 International festival for art, music and technology, The Hague - The Netherlands 19 - 22 September 2019 TodaysArt reveals spectacular Context Program for 2019 festival edition, with widely celebrated keynote speakers, philosophers and a debate on the future of Europe. The anniversary edition of TodaysArt is less than 8 weeks away, and this means the time has come to announce the first names of this year’s in-depth Context Program. With keynote speeches by Douglas Rushkoff and Koert van Mensvoort, an inspiring talk between philoso- pher Srećko Horvat and Sea-Watch captain Pia Klemp alongside a dialogue between thinkers Daan Roovers and Maxim Februari, the enriching discourse program of the 15th festival edi- tion will explore the theme of ‘CONSCIOUSNESS.’ Speakers: Douglas Rushkoff - Koert van Mensvoort - Srećko Horvat - Pia Klemp - Daan Roovers - Maxim Februari Artist talks: Refik Anadol - Pablo Valbuena - Ralf Baecker - Evelina Domnitch + Dmitry Gelfand What is going to be humanity’s role and relevance in our digital future, and what role will philosophy, ethics, and creativity play? What is our relationship with artificial intelligence? Do we choose nature over techno- logy? And how fine is the line between them, if there is a line at all? These are some of the questions the international festival for art, music and technology TodaysArt aims to answer this September in The Hague, together with its artists, audience and speakers. With this year’s festival theme, ‘CONSCIOUSNESS’, TodaysArt leaves the dystopian scenarios on conflict, ‘black boxes’ and artificial intelligence from previous years behind. Instead, the festival focuses on the pos- sibilities of digital technology, on topics like artificial emotions, digital consciousness, machine hallucinations and meditations, and especially humanity in the digital age.
