CODED CULTURES - Subcuratorship beyond Media Arts

With Michal Wlodkowski, Luise Reitstätter, Joasia Krysa, Sydney Ogidan, and Eva Fischer – the “sub-curators” of the CODED CULTURES framework

Moderated by Georg Russegger

Based on questions about contemporary media art festivals, in the autumn of 2011 CODED CULTURES presented City as Interface. Hereby curators and artists tried to create new models of representation, transmission and intervention within a concept of sub-curatorship beyond media arts and within public space. For transmediale 2012 a discursive vector is reflecting on these inventions based on trans-disciplinary examples from intersecting fields like contemporary art, media art, street art, audio-visual arts, exhibition design and interfaces in order to transform the city into a playful and unstable environment for artistic interventions. The invited participants will give 10-minute long impulse-lectures to present methodological approaches based on their interests and backgrounds. The panel will be followed by a discussion with the audience.
