ARS ELECTRONICA ARCHIVE - ART & SCIENCE

The basis of the „European Digital Art and Science Network“ is a big manifold network consisting of scientific mentoring institutions (ESA, CERN, ESO and Fraunhofer MEVIS), the Ars Electronica Futurelab and seven European cultural partners (Center for the promotion of science, RS – DIG Gallery, SK – Zaragoza City of Knowledge Foundation, ES – Kapelica Gallery / Kersnikova, SI – GV Art, UK – Laboral, ES – Science Gallery, IE. The EU funded project lasted from 2014 to 2017.
The Online Archive of Ars Electronica provides an overview of the individual activities of the network and also delivers information about the network itself, the residency artists and the involved project partners and the jury.

CORE LABs by Digital Intervention Group (SK)
CORE LABs platform, initiated in 2014, is an open source laboratory environment with functional architecture, autonomous subenvironments, and individual real-time systems for generating the multiple unexpected interactions. It provides tools for individual interdisciplinary research and the creation of artistic and/or scientific outputs.
Dark Matter Spray by Michal Murin (SK)
Dark Matter Spray (2016) is an interactive performance project which uses the hybrid VVVV programming software and infrared sensor interface in the shape of the spray can. Users can create a digital black matter that interferes with selected images from the ESA photo archive. The concept is based on the illusion of the correction of the light level (the absence of the light particles) while implanting the black digital matter in the 2D image area. Technical support: Lukáš Matejka, Pavol Soukal.

Art & Science / vol. 1 – 3
Exhibition series
Vol. 1: 01.10. – 31.10.2016
Vol. 2: 01.11. – 30.11.2016
Vol. 3: 01.12. – 31.12.2016 (prolonged till 31.01.2017)

This Art & Science exhibition series was a kind of a challenge for the Slovak audience, because there are still not so many existing parallels within the domestic culture context.

A series of three specific international exhibitions at DIG gallery exposed the art works by eight foreign artists and five Slovak artists who oscillate between the contemporary art zone and areas of scientific research. An Art & Science topic is quite an intuitive area, even for the local artists and scientists, so we chose a co-education-like format and the exhibition also presented the goals of the the European Digital Art & Science Network.

Ungraspable by Ján Gašparovič (SK)
Ungraspable consists of a few boxes that create electro-shelters from our modern paranoia of an electro-smog that is constantly being recalled by a special measuring device.
Well Plate Utopias by Matej Vakula (US/SK)
Well Plate Utopias (2016) uses nanoparticle-based experimental cancer drugs to project images of Thomas More’s Utopian Alphabet, on cancer tissues grown in Petri dishes. The Alphabet was part of More’s masterpiece, Utopia (1516), which is one of the most influential books in the Western philosophical and literary tradition. Let’s think about the concept of Utopia as a fruitful path, rather than a destination. Let’s draw a compelling parallel between nanotechnologies, scientific gaze, and the laboratory as a place where the future and its relationship to contemporary society, culture, humanity’s hope for disease treatment, and continuity of life is created.
