[im] PixelPoint Festival and workshop Nova Gorica

[Allan Siegel UPC]

Hello All,
There are still a few FREEMOVER CEEPUS MOBILITIES available for Nova 
Gorica to coincide with the Pixxelpoint Festival (November 15 - 23) and 
along with a local programme relating to the Mapping the Local seminar. 
You don't have to be in the Mapping class to apply but it would be useful.

If you are interested please contact me as soon as possible.

thanks
allan

_Pixxelpoint 2019 preliminary progamme:_

The high-voltage installation/Sirius/ by *Marko Peljhan *and *Matthew 
Biederman* will, through the absurd logic of artificial intelligence, 
question the boundaries of the militant. While *Špela Petrič* will once 
again, after her recent Ars Electronica distinction, hark to the whisper 
of plants in the bio-art work-process of /Nocicepto/r, as intelligible 
also if not only to the deaf.

The Swedish interface magician *Hakan Lidbo* will present his strange 
Alterplex instrument, while *Janus A. Luznar* will let us sink into an 
intimate feedback loop with his heart in /ICTUSCORDIS/. And not least 
/DJ I, Robot 2020 of /*Chris Csikszentmihaly* will deliver the labour 
beyond the interface.

Pixxelpoint 2019 will host the week-long collective /Hacklab 
/intervention of the Maribor transnational guerrilla of *GT 22*. While 
the Berlin performance space *Gruentaler9* will, in the mobile version 
of /Bys229 /driven by the curator *Teena Lange* along the German 
motorways, import fresh and specific interventions from real(ly) female 
performance artists.

The Kromberk industrial zone will be connected with the cultural center 
of Nova Gorica by the augmented reality visions of B/ulvAR /of *Arctur*, 
in its Huture Space the company will host the Slovakian artist *Maria 
Judova* who will through contemporary dance offer deep immersion into 
the reality of shamanic wisdom in /Kykeon/.

The little pine-tree forest in the centre of Nova Gorica will welcome 
children in a 3d workshop to jointly create /Monster ZOO/, a urban 
innovation of augmented reality by *AKEO Labs* and *Valerie Wolfgang*. 
While the Serbian artist *Dean Grba *will audiovisualize insights  
generated from computer errors across space and time.

*Jaka Železnikar* will invite to reflecting the Nova Gorica - Gorizia 
cultural landscape in the online /Open Map/, while *Sašo Sedlaček*'s 
special iteration of /P.O.M.P./ will mislead the lazy audience to 
participate in cryptocurrency farming.

Across some shop-windows of Nova Gorica, the Austrian artist *Helene 
Thuemmel *will video-gesture the landscape as an interface of perception 
and memory, while the Lebanese artist and researcher *Laure Keyrouz* 
will check reality tensions between the Middle Eastern and the 
Eurocentric representations of the beautiful and the good. *Miriam 
Raggam, Hanns Holger Rutz, Nayari Castillo *and*Reni Hofmueller* will 
feature /Meanders/, an installation recollecting physical data of the 
city transformed into sound passed through a compositional generator.

The *ADRIART.CE* network lead by the University of Nova Gorica School of 
Arts will flank through and intervene into the tissue of the Nova Gorica 
- Gorizia twin-town conurbation, involving a motley flaneuring community 
of students and mentors from Belgrade, Budapest, Rijeka, Graz, Skopje 
and Krakow. With a three-day workshop and a two-day theoretical 
symposium the *MASTmodule.eu *consortium (Austria, Portugal, Croatia, 
Belgium, Slovenia) will be, in several lectures and round tables, 
/Mapping the Initiatives, Spaces and Works across Art, Science and New 
Technologies./

The accompanying video-film programme will include works by *Peter 
Mettler, Jasna Hribernik, Kristina Steinbock* and *Ema Kugler* as well 
as feature a selection of short animated films by the*Ars Electronica 
Animation Festival.*

Along the exceptionally diverse music programme of *Pixxelmusic*, the 
work of /Heallo/ by *Jatun Risba* and her international music&fashion 
collective will invite everyone to a conceptual rave in the casino, 
presenting one of the pinnacles of the festival trance(ndance). *H**IT* 
will also host a week-long intermedia workshop, featuring the maestro of 
device magic *Slavko Glamočanin* and pETER Purg: at the *Park, Casino & 
Hotel*'s premises /slot machines will be hacked into musical 
instruments/ -- or just become artistic totems as eternal interfaces of 
unverifiable reality.
