La Complessità come problema, sistema e risorsa
Pordenone, 23 Maggio 2018
Ore 09:30 - 17:30 presso Consorzio Universitario - Pordenone FVG
Se i problemi che ci assillano: ambiente, alimentazione, lavoro, povertà, salute, sono generati da una rete di fattori che si configurano in modo ricorsivo e sistemico, il pensiero abilitato alla loro soluzione sarà plausibilmente un pensiero anch’esso “a rete”. Il problema è che questo nuovo paradigma cognitivo che, in definitiva, è lo stesso che regola i processi in natura, non ci viene spontaneo m...

Recent research on the impact of machines and technology on art places the machine in the centre of ‘ecologies’ (Fuller), ‘archaeologies’ (Parikka) and ‘aesthetics of interaction’ (Kwastek) pointing towards a ‘techno-ontology’ (Broeckmann).

[ITA] Bill Viola cattura tempi rivelatori di vite segrete, spiriti che si amalgamano con il medium artistico, quasi collabora in maniera intima con lo spettatore. Viola trascende il significato della vita mettendo in scena l'invisibile e il sublime e facendo dialogare il materiale con l'immateriale. Viola crea un'alleanza profonda tra movimento ed assenza di fronte al mondo, come una ricerca dell'individualità che pone il sé in una posizione di consapevolezza.
