Initial themes
- Form brings questions about content
- Computational approaches represent nature but biology holds in itself the reality of nature
- Art can tilt and sway perspective
- Interactive technology (video, telecommunication) are time base media
Framing questions
- How to look at the world through nature’s point of view?
- How can artwork change itself during a show?
- How can artwork change as it travels from gallery to gallery?
- We value the history of an object but can an object have traces/memories of itself and its history?
- Is the human desire to “fix time” immutable?
- We think of our cells as making up us but they have a life of their own as well (circadian pulsing of neurons every 23.5 hours w/o stimulus). What is the biological memory that cells have of a day? What do cells have to say to us?
- Galleries usually carefully manage light/moisture/temperature to inhibit bacteria growth on art but is this just a romantic notion of art by masters and is the intervention needed? Can unpredictable evolution/passage/change of art be part of art?
Art/Science examples we considered
- Eduardo Kac
- Transgenetic Alba bunny: use of animals as art? Research was done for science then made accessible through art
- Specimen of Secrecy About Marvelous Discoveries, pt 1
- Specimen of Secrecy About Marvelous Discoveries, pt2
- Hyunkoo Lee: animatus= skeletons from animated characters. Notable for its performance of science, that the artist makes apparent. Some eerie some playful examples.
