      The /piece/, a Heart-Brain Mind-Beats [A Database Random Remix?]

      Milena Szafir and Clarissa Ribeiro / Brazil
      This full day experimental hands-on workshop is based on the experimental project “MindRemix [navigational extra-sensorium]” (2015). How about the emergence of a specific kind of consciousness when we experience the “stream'engrams”? How about to explore the experience of revealing and facing the /piece/ by navigating our own personal video memories driven by mind waves?. Considering that knowledge processes are attached to the production of entropy externally to the systems involved, we invite you to reflect on how the “stream'engrams” affect our neurological heart-brain's systems behavior in a recursive way, implying in considering this experience in terms of systems of intercreating informational processes. As a theoretical mainframe, Milena Szafir proposes the “stream'engrams” as a term related to the clouding audiovisual aesthetics experienced by the algorithmic remix through online databases – streaming memories for editing –; what about the montage specificities of these images [and sounds], the visual dialogues? And Clarissa Ribeiro invites to reflect on how exploring this heart-brain synchronized conversation as an input in interactive installations, could be a way to understand mind and consciousness as emergencies from whole body informational dynamics.

      Introduction to Gambiological Studies

      Fred Paulino / Brazil
      Gambiologia is a Brazilian creative hub which adopts the country's tradition of "gambiarra" (“life hacks” or spells) as a source of inspiration for works on art and technology. It materializes itself on the production of multifunctional devices which are recognized either as electronics, installations, sculptures or decorative objects. In this workshop, we will collect unused objects from urban landscape and hack them in order to create upcycled design objects. For that, we will explore the concept of “industrial coincidence”, in which two industrial objects with different origins fit perfect in each other. We will also provide basic electronics theory and materials that will be applied in the student's creations.

      The Soundwalk as an Art Form: Building Bridges to Peace

      Andrea Williams / USA
      Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
      www.listeninglistening.com/isea-2017-colombia.html
      The Soundwalk as an Art Form: Building Bridges to Peace presents an overview of the history of the participatory walk as an art form, including the soundwalk and its key concepts and development, while providing a theoretical tool box for creating ones own soundwalk as a transformative art experience. When leading a soundwalk we are combining the perceiver and the perceived, the participant and observer in an improvisatory way in the physical environment. Soundwalks guide us on a path primarily created by our ears. Sound artist, Andrea Williams, will lead a 45-minute soundwalk at Parque Antonio Nariño, located in the Manizales Downtown, an open space consisting of flower gardens, urban structures, and a small square for events. The park has been created to "eliminate segregation and contribute to healthy living". The soundwalk will focus on: How can we be in peace and harmony with our surroundings? What does peace sound like? How do we feel connected non-verbally to other beings? How can observing other species bring us a sense of peace that we can translate to being at peace with fellow human beings? Following the walk, there will be 45 minutes of break-out groups for discussion posted on the URL.
