Big thanks goes to our great speakers, who delivered highly interesting lectures and to those ones, who in any form contributed to the series. Visuals of New Interfaces were made by Barbara Kowalczuková. The recording and postproduction of videos had been orchestrated by Peter Vaýžan.

 

The New Interfaces are a series of interdisciplinary lectures led by experts in various fields - literature, psychology, social sciences, aesthetics and game theory and art. They deal with topics that resonate in the work of the youngest artists working within the post-media environment. The cycle will focus primarily on topics related to our cognitive conditions in the interfaces of constantly evolving technologies and in contrast to the desire for authentic, visceral experience escaping out here-and-now. These themes appear in art with increasing urgency, both in the overproduction of performative works or works thematizing these new interfaces. The lectures also reflect the themes that appear in the dramaturgy of the exhibition plan of the MEDIUM gallery and its reading club for students What´s the Point?

 


Supported using public funding by Slovak Arts Council.
