JAR-Journal for Artistic Research

Le JAR/Journal for Artistic Research propose une nouvelle formule, uniquement en ligne, de publication universitaire sur la recherche en art.

Premier numéro prévu pour l’automne 2011. Un numéro zéro est en ligne.

The Journal for Artistic Research (JAR) is an international, online, Open Access and peer-reviewed journal for the identification, publication and dissemination of artistic research and its methodologies, from all arts disciplines.

With the aim of displaying practice in a manner that respects artists’ modes of presentation, JAR abandons the traditional journal article format and offers its contributors a dynamic online canvas where text can be woven together with image, audio and video.

These research documents called ‘expositions’ provide a unique reading experience while fulfilling the expectations of scholarly dissemination.

CCP – Creating-Curating-Publishing

Les frontières entre création, exposition, publication n’ont jamais été très étanches. Elles le sont de moins en moins. De nouvelles formes à l’intersection de ces trois domaines font l’objet d’une expérimentation riche et foisonnante. Elles constituent un de mes axes de veille, de recherche et d’expérimentation, notamment avec le Collectif Nunc.

The borders/boundaries between creating, curating and publishing have never been impermeable. They are more and more porous. New forms at the intersection of those three fields are emerging from a rich and varied experimentation. They are one of my research axis and my own experiments, in particular with the Collectif Nunc.

Ex-Punction, Igor Stromajer

Avec Ex-Punction, Igor Stromajer va détruire, une par une, à compter du 1er juin 2011, les œuvres de net art qu’il a créées sur www.intima.org.

Je reste ambigue : en tant que public qui a été particulièrement touchée par certaines d’entre elles, en tant qu’enseignante qui a besoin de montrer des œuvres aux étudiants, en tant qu’issue d’une culture qui fétichise l’œuvre d’art, je ne peux adhérer au projet ; en tant que critique, je ne peux que respecter la position de l’artiste. Mais je reste quand même dubitative sur la nature du geste.

Dead Drops

L’expérimentation de nouvelles formes entre création/édition/exposition devient un sujet réellement passionnant. Porté à mon attention aujourd’hui, le projet d’Aram Bartholl, Dead Drops, qui inclut des clés USB dans des espaces publics avec seulement un dossier « readme ». Libre à chacun ensuite d’y mettre ou d’y retirer des dossiers.

YASMIN Discussion: Next Step Publishing

Leonardo/Olats announces the new YASMIN discussion :

NEXT STEP PUBLISHING, Beginning Feb 6 2011

Follow the discussion on the YASMIN blog

Contribute to the discussion by registering to the YASMIN Discussion list

Next Step Publishing. In the few years ahead of us, many things will change. Most human activities already include publishing digital information: be it shopping, working, relating with people, relaxing. This information will not remain in usual places (databases and monitors), but it will progressively become produceable and accessible directly from objects, architectures, clothes, and bodies. This change is drastically augmenting in speed, and now virtually every surface can become a monitor, an input device or a generator of information, mutating completely our potential understanding of our bodies, of cities, of relationships and other common (or less common) human activities. This is what we mean by « Next Step Publishing »: both a chance for pioneeristic investigation through sciences, arts and design, and to present currently existing significative practices and their meaning to both sciences, arts and creativity.

The discussion itself will transform into a live example of Next Step Publishing, with visibility inside the Transmediale festival in Berlin and at the Furtherfield Gallery in London, and will then be transformed into a cross-medial publication by FakePress.

The coordinator of this discussion will be Salvatore Iaconesi (robotics engineer, interaction designer, artist). Salvatore currently teaches interaction design at La Sapienza University in Rome and is one of the funders of FakePress publishing.

The invited discussants will be : Luca Simeone/FakePres; Massimo Canevacci; Simone Arcagni; Andrew Hudson Smith; Marc Garrett/Furtherfield

Also joining in the discussion, but to a limited degree due to traveling and faculty duties: Alessandro Aurigi; Mike Batty; Nina Czegledy.

YASMIN discussion : Around Simulation II

Leonardo/OLATS, co sponsor of YASMIN network, is pleased to announce the  new YASMIN discussion : Around Simulation II, Beginning Jan 17 2011 for three weeks

Around Simulation II – Simulated Senses and the Un-Simulatable

Join the YASMIN Discussion List

Roughly one year ago with Jennifer Kanary Nikolova we started moderating a discussion on Yasmin about the simulation issue (“Around Simulation”). That discussion involved many people but many themes were left back. We think that this topic is pivotal in the human culture, and recently after talking with Roger Malina we decided to restart the discussion (something like an “Around Simulation II”).

This time it will be focused on some issues that were previously ignored, and we think are important. There are 2 main of them:

1) The un-simulatable. Is all simulatable? Maybe not all can be simulated and there are realms that can only be partially simulated or that can’t be simulated at all. Do they exist? What are they? And why they can’t be simulated?

2) The simulation of the senses – and in particular of the other senses than sight and hearing – in the communication and artistic processes. It is an important topic, for instance in the mediated and remote communication.

The topic will be moderated by Pier Luigi Capucci and Jennifer Kanary Nikolova.
