We are pleased to invite you in the next meeting of “Technopocene: Event-Series” a collaboration between Hiwar Art Club and Themen Raum to participate in the interactive art experience and discussion on the subject of cybernetic and telematic art through the appointed reading “Is there love in the telematic embrace? ”By British artist and theorist in the fields of technology and art Roy Ascott.
You’ll find the assigned reading in the comment box. The discussion will be in both Arabic and English.
New technologies shape almost all aspects of our lives: They expand our possibilities of communication, simplify our work processes and allow for new forms of artistic expression. At the same time, they do not cease to confront us with questions and challenges that call for unconventional approaches. The event-series “Technopecene” covers different aspects of this “post-normal”
condition. It combines artistic with scientific perspectives as well as a variety of formats and encourages experimentation and innovative thinking in dealing with the challenges and opportunities of our time.
* This program is Organized by Goethe Institute and the Jordan National Gallery of fine Arts.
Join our meetup at building #2 of the Jordan National Gallery of Fine Arts, Al Montazah roundabout, Al Weibdeh.
in collaboration with
