Beyond the variety, freshness of the product, low prices and the ability to bargain, among other advantages for the consumer, the gallery, a space in crisis in some cities, offers a great meeting space, whether with a neighbor, a friend or the seller, as with our own local, national and Latin American identity. As a common denominator and cultural treasure, this space becomes, in the current context of visual design, with expanding themes and possibilities, a field of action for study, conservation and a source of visual inspiration.

The violent flooding on slopes that are detached and dragged down the slope to the bottom of the valleys, is what is called a huayco. In this event where water as an element or as a destructive and constructive event, transforms everything it touches, relating moments of precipitation, accumulation and flow. This work inspired by Octavio Paz's poem "Mar in the Afternoon" is an audiovisual experience with interactive elements that reveals the expressions of water through the experimentation of shapes, colors, soundscapes, visuals, bodily and artistic expressions. building reflective experiences of the energy and flow of water, exploring space as the container that demonstrates the instability and versatility of the precious liquid, reforming and transmuting the environment in turn.

There are many possible paths to begin to decipher the complex and rich web of relationships between science, technology, design and art in Latin America. If we think of privileged routes in the 20th century to explore this framework, the history of cybernetics is undoubtedly one of those. It has taken a long time for the legacy of cybernetics in different Latin American countries to be given the historical importance it deserves. However, at this moment we have an interesting series of investigations and publications that emerge clearing the tip of the iceberg of said history.

Fachada proposes an immersive interactive video space where visitors explore facades of our republican architecture thanks to the use of streaming technologies and natural interaction; The project gives a new look at spaces and places that, due to the daily movement, become invisible to our eyes. With the installation, an audiovisual copy of facades is created from the use of remote cameras arranged, in this case, through the city of Manizales, the images, initially static, reveal the events that occur in remote sites from the movement of the participants to the installation, as the attendees move through the space, the video and audio captured online becomes more evident allowing not only to better see the details of the facades but also the daily life around them.

Fabian Esteban Luna  

Argentina

The workshop is located within the so-called Networked Music, where it is intentionally incorporated into information networks from which to propose collective musical developments. The modalities and resources discussed during the meetings will be based on the instructions and experiences resulting from the Poliedro project [on line] ( www.poliedronline.blogspot.com ), which is incorporated into the research project on "Collective creation in music mediated by new technologies", based at the Tres de Febrero National University, Argentina.

Students of Photodesign Laboratory II

Colombia

The photographic production presented by the students of the Photodesign Laboratory II is an academic exercise, which starts from the review of the work of the French artist Sophie Calle, a work that investigates the condition of blind people entitled "The blind". Calle collects the testimonies of several people blind from birth, in accordance with their belief about beauty. The thematic model of the artist is then resumed by the students of the aforementioned subject, carrying out a practice that seeks to recreate the experience of the artist.

RecLab Collective - Javeriana University 

Colombia

The Reclab collective is an interdisciplinary group oriented towards the development of audiovisual works, which functions as a creation laboratory, developing pieces in different formats that maintain an interest in interactivity, multimedia and performance. The work "Gestural Processes" is based on an investigation into the relationship of the human gesture with information technologies, control and vice versa. The artist Laura Anzola, as part of the Reclab Collective, developed the work at the Banff Centre, Canada in artistic residency granted by the Ministry of Culture, incorporating important sound experimentation, which encompasses the multicultural and the geographical. For this version of the Festival, a third sample will be presented, which will merge in real time the sound and visual results obtained in Bogotá, Banff (CA) and Manizales.

Italy - Colombia

We always listen to the noise of the fridge and it became like a common sound in our lives. We would like to consider it in a different way, in its possibility. The “buzzing” that the fridge produces represents different noises playing at the same time, with a kind of synchrony. We want to deconstruct this synchrony and let it play in a relative time connection to study the interactions between parts more than sound itself. To do that we considered the partial sounds of the household appliance as if they were like subatomic particles, strictly connected one to the other. In a relative time-space they don't exist with certainty in defined points of time, but they show tendencies to exist. They only exist in their reciprocal relationship, but this connection is not fixed, it tended to occur. In this situation the observer becomes very important because his relative point of view can completely change the observed element, in this case the sou.

Ivan Marino

Argentina - Spain

He studied cinema in his native country and has dedicated himself, since the beginning of his career, to production in experimental formats, such as video art and auteur documentary. In recent years, giving continuity to the investigation of hypermedia structures, which culminated in pioneering projects such as In death's dream kingdom (streaming media online, 2002-2003), he shows special interest in exploring the foundations of audiovisual language – the formal rules of the film apparatus and its ideological framework– applied to new installation formats. His recent works with programmed and generative images analyze the writing strategies of contemporary audiovisual discourses and the latent conditions of the media that produce them.

The Soma Songs project brings together a group of acclaimed artists and designers from performance, visual, sound, textile and film genres. Fusing digital dance, choreographic screen processes with architectural cinema and sound, the project develops an electro-shamanic ethos. We trace our stories of architecture from the first attempts to capture and hold space with stone. The skeletons of stone structures have sat with us for millennia. Light is both wave and particle. Light has consciousness. In Soma Songs we conduct this energy and its resulting memory. This developing AV live set (presented last year at PQ11), will be performed by Artistic Director, Daniel Belton. Live video layering and scrolling from Final Cut Pro working a custom system, with sound layering through Ableton incorporating live instrumentation from the Tuning Forks Eight Octave.

The use of user technology to carry out online transmissions or any type of artistic or journalistic work is also of great importance; the latter gave rise to the project [sunday matinees]

Enrique Franco Lizarazo

Colombia

For some time there has been talk of "expanded cinema", the use of "found footage" and "live cinema" or "live montage", artistic expressions that seek to broaden the experience of the viewer and author using multiple resources that go beyond of the traditional narrative. Thanks to digital technologies, a wide variety of flexible and expressive audiovisual systems have been developed based on gestural control, dynamic visual representation (video, animation), real-time sound and image processing and synthesis, and communication technologies. Such systems make it possible to reconfigure the relationships between image, sound and control, and are fundamental for the creation and realization of expressive audiovisual compositions and products. Audiovisual works become ephemeral and break with the linearity of traditional cinema, transforming the narrative into something circumstantial, thanks to techniques and strategies such as real-time editing, live video, drawing, painting, mixing and remixing, the processing and generation of images, and the intervention of the public. It is making films outside of the cinema, it is something fleeting, unrepeatable and collaborative.

In this workshop we will learn to build a series of emblematic sound circuits of the DIY culture (do it yourself). Due to its simplicity of assembly and low cost, it is a perfect excuse to introduce yourself to electronics and learn to make electronic circuits. The diversity of sounds and interactions generated make the "sound factory" a very fun space building and playing with these sound machines.

Hotspots is a mobile performance operation, street action, and audiovisual intervention. The group will tour the city in a van making stops (at different hotspots) to open virtual portals (mirrors) and preserve them with (or make offerings of) sound, noise, video, fire, paint, etc. The truck is the modem and each operation (the process) is a portal. We want to subvert advertising's use of the code and media in part by working with abstract shapes, tribal patterns, and noise (“the snow that dissolves”), ...or throw the technology into the street.
