Dark Ecology SONIC ACTS ANNUAL REPORT 2014 1 / ANNUAL REPORT 2014 INTRODUCTION 2014 was a busy year for Sonic Acts. The year started with the presentation of the voluminous publication The Dark Universe and ended with finalising the next extensive book The Geologic Imagination. Highpoints of the year include the many screenings of Vertical Cinema – a project developed by Sonic Acts, including the commissioning of ten films, accompanied by a side-programme of lectures and workshops. All screenings were sold out, and on almost all occasions extra screenings had to be facilitated at the last moment due to huge demand. In October the first edition ofDark Ecology with a programme of lectures, guided walks, presentations of commissioned works, workshops, and further activities took place in the border area of North Norway and North- West Russia. This three-year international research and commissioning programme is initiated, curated and produced by Sonic Acts in collaboration with partners in Norway and Russia. In 2014 we conducted extensive research leading up to the 2015 Sonic Acts festival The Geologic Imagination. This included editing the book The Geologic Imagination, and interviewing artists and theorists. Many of these interviews were published in The Geologic Imagination or became part of the online Sonic Acts Research Series. Apart from this, we organised several smaller programmes, lectures and performances, and we commissioned new works that were shown at the Sonic Acts festival, at Dark Ecology, and at other international events, such as donaufestival. It is also noteworthy that we facilitated the research of other artists and theorists, in particular by inviting them to take part in the Dark Ecology journey. Furthermore we started to explore the possibilities of setting up a festival in Vienna, Austria. All in all, Sonic Acts’ activities signify the organisation’s transition from a ‘festival-based’ , Marijn de Jong organisation to a curating platform that commissions new work, researches, publishes, and organises Zone Grey international events.

The programme was considered to be one of the VERTICAL CINEMA AT IFFR highlights of the festival. The screenings were accompanied by a lecture by Erkki Huhtamo, concerts, and a workshop. Erkki Huhtamo: Up and Down the Shaft of Time Vertical Cinema Lecture at IFFR 24 January Rotterdam At the occasion of the international premiere of Vertical Cinema at IFFR 2014 in Rotterdam, Finnish Professor of media history at UCLA Erkki Huhtamo delivered an extensive lecture at IFFR on the history of vertical cinema, and its position in contemporary media culture, citing many thought- provoking and funny examples, from Eisenstein to vertical iPhone-movies. We interviewed Erkki Huhtamo, and published the interview as part of the Sonic Acts Research Series (see below).

It consisted of an introduction to the Vertical Cinema project by its producers, and a masterclass led by Tina Frank focusing on the digital versus the analogue, as well as a one-day 16mm film workshop led by Esther Urlus. Urlus and Frank are both filmmakers who each made a new work for Vertical Cinema. The workshop attracted a good number of students, predominantly of the Piet Zwart Institute. The workshop was organised in collaboration with the Piet Zwart Institute and Filmwerkplaats WORM and took place at V2_ in Rotterdam. VERTICAL CINEMA AT STEDELIJK Vertical Cinema Screenings 20 – 23 February Erika Balsom, Vertical Cinema Expanded Lecture at Stedelijk Museum Dan Flavin hall, 4 screenings Photo: Pieter Kers Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam A programme of four expanded lectures by international speakers focused on the history of vertical and other forms of expanded cinema and explored the future of audio- visual experiments. Each lecture was held on a different evening, giving the speaker ample time to unfold his/her thoughts and ideas. The four lectures preceded the screenings of Vertical Cinema at the Dan Flavin Hall of the Stedelijk. On 20 February Philippe-Alain Michaud, film curator at Centre Pompidou, focused on the tradition of experimental cinema, and demonstrated that film cannot be defined by the restricted point of view of the history of cinema. On 21 February art historian Noam M. Elcott showed many examples and identified three resonances of the vertical screen: as mere matter, as human form, and as divine presence. On 22 February film historianE rica Balsom explored analogue rejections of the horizontal frame and excavated the prehistory of the variable aspect ratios that confront film today. And on 23 February Bart Rutten, head of conservation at the Stedelijk, shared his remarks on the mainly abstract Vertical Cinema programme, Vertical Cinema at Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam Amsterdam. based on both his personal experiences in curating Photo: Pieter Kers film and video art, as well as the institutional Vertical Cinema was screened four times at context of Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.

The intellectual and artistic capital of Mitteleuropa was a melting pot of ideas and experimentation, celebrated by the philosopher Karl Popper: “Vienna really was an incredible city, characterized by unparalleled creativity. It was a fertile mixture of almost all European cultures: the regime encouraged freedom of expression and the meeting of these different traditions”.1 The Vienna of today is an aggregator of artistic experiences, a capital city that fosters culture: from the 60 thousand square metre Museum Quarter – one of the largest cultural districts in the world – to contemporary galleries, from the treasures of the Habsburgs to the riches of this architectural, musical, literary city. Contemporary artistic experience, in particular, makes new headway Englisn everyday, even in strongholds of tradition such as the Winter Palace of Prince Eugene of Savoy, now a location for contemporary art.

  • Herefore Damage, for the Festivals and the Entire Ecosystem of Suppliers
    Content 22019019 Members map 2 Dutch Live Music Venues Venues: events and visits 3 and Festivals Venues: work(ers) 4 Facts & Figures Venues: income and expenditure 5 Festivals: events and visits 6 Members list 7 VNPF information 8 This publication provides insight into the facts and figures for the year 2019 of 53 of the 59 music venues, and of all 52 festivals, that are members of the VNPF in October 2020. The year 2019 was a record year for the music venues and music festivals in every respect. Never before did the venues and festivals programme so many events and artist performances, and attracted so much audience, as in 2019. Never before did so many employees work so many hours to make all of this possible. This resulted in both artistic and financial records. At the time of the publication (October 2020) of these 2019 annual figures, we are still in the middle of a pandemic. COVID-19 is perhaps the biggest spoiler in the history of the live music sector in the Netherlands. Mid March 2020, all music venues had to close their doors abruptly. Events and festivals were banned. No activities could be organized by order of the government. The effects of this are still devastating: artists can no longer perform, workers no longer have a job, the audience can enjoy less live music. A great deal of damage is suffered in our experience economy. The Dutch government sees that - especially now - the cultural sector is important and, together with local governments, has generously supported parts of the live music sector during this crisis.

  • Ars Electronica Futurelab
    Ars Electronica Futurelab Andreas J. Hirsch Edited by Horst Hörtner, Roland Haring, Hideaki Ogawa Alchemists of the Future Ars Electronica Futurelab The First 25 Years and Beyond ARS ELECTRONICA FUTURELAB 25 Years of Ars Electronica Futurelab The creation of the Futurelab was in equal measure an accident or a stroke of luck (right people, right time, right place) and the unavoidable consequence of the original Ars Electronica idea of a merging of art, technology, and society. It was certainly also an urgent necessity—actually the only chance—to make the planned Ars Electronica Center with its groundbreaking innovations, high artistic standards, and clear didactical goals a fully functioning “Museum of the Future.” In mid-1995, entrusted with this task, we were faced with so many technical and creative challenges that there was simply only one way forward: putting together a team of ambitious and visionary artists and technicians and striving to turn this great vision, which up to that point had existed only on paper, into reality. To realize his idea of an Ars Electronica Center, Hannes Leopoldseder had in advance invited experts and artists from all over the world to develop visions for this new kind of center and, not surprisingly, the invitees outdid themselves with spectacular scenarios ranging from LED wallpaper with which all walls would be covered (at that time there were not yet LED flatscreens on the market) to kinetic components that would change the building constantly. Alas, there was then the reality, a reality in which it was not enough to cobble these kinds of prototypes together for a short demonstration at a fair or art exhibition, but rather one in which they had to stand up to the real world of permanent exhibitions where they were on show six days a week, with only one day for maintenance and repair.

Silvia Elisabetta Pagano Angestrebter akademischer Grad Doktor der Philosophie (Dr. phil.) Wien, 2009 Studienkennzahl lt. Studienblatt: A 092 316 Dissertationsgebiet lt. Studienblatt: Musikwissenschaft Betreuer: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Christoph Reuter ii Abstract This research examines contemporary experimental music of an electronic character, with view to understanding the reason this music developed in the way it did together with the motivation of the respective musicians. This information then provides a basis to hypothesise how the listener could regard this music in order to understand it. For this reason the topic is addressed from the point of view of different musicological fields. On the one hand the historic developments and its connections as well as some philosophical aspects are analysed. On the other hand psychological and technical aspects are integrated. Some interviews, which were held with musicians operating in Vienna, complete the work. In the course of this dissertation it is shown that the contemporary experimental electronic music is the result of complex mutual reactions of different musical genres. In the age of globalisation it even has no real cultural identity. Furthermore, the growing affordability of computers has changed the musical world. This also has an effect on electronic music. As far as contemporary experimental music is concerned, free improvisation is very important. As in musical therapy, it also involves subconscious processes.
