[Nettime-nl] LAUNCH OF THE PORTAL: GAMA @ ARS ELECTRONICA FESTIVAL |
Launch of the Portal: GAMA @ Ars Electronica Festival On the occasion of the Ars Electronica Festival 2009 the econtentPlus project GAMA - Gateway to Archives of Media Art - is launching a portal to the eight founding European archives with a workshop and a screening installation of selected works from the collections. Workshop "Archiving Media Art: Politics and Strategies" Sept 5th, 2 pm at the Kunstuniversität Linz, Kollegiumgasse 2, Audimax. Experts will discuss the significance of the institutional setting with respect to the creation of the repositories and their future perspectives. Additionally, artists will present new ways of documentation of media art which tend to integrate the user experience into a documentation strategy for media art works - or even into the works themselves. Speakers: Annet Dekker (Virtueel Platform, Amsterdam), Anna-Karin Larsson (Filmform, Stockholm), Gerfried Stocker (Ars Electronica, Linz), Matt Adams (Blast Theory, Brighton), Gabriella Giannachi (University of Exeter), Caitlin Jones (Free curator and media theorist, New York), Lizzie Muller (University of Technology, Sydney) Screening Installation in the Brucknerhaus 3 - 8 September In the History Lounge the eight European media art archives and collections networked within the GAMA portal are screening highlights from their collections. For example works by Lars Arrhenius, Yael Bartana, Robert Cahen, Gerard Cairaschi, Mounir Fatmi, Toshio Iwai, Ema Kugler, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Cecilia Lundqvist, Vincent Meessen, Jean-Gabriel Périot, Sašo Podgoršek, Semiconductor, Shelly Silver, János Sugár and Gianni Toti will be shown.
