      The Gallery of Flavors

      Diana Milena Reyes / Santiago Espinoza / Laura Garcia / Natalia Delgado
      Colombia

      The gallery of flavors is a soundscape that portrays the day to day in the kitchens of the central pavilion and basement of the Mercado de Manizales square. The 3 kitchens listened to have two points in common: They are all managed by women who day by day build a food tradition in the city from their peasant origin, all kinds of strata come together to eat. In other words, in the city gallery, the kitchens represent social and family micro-dynamics that are visible to all, unlike large restaurants where cooks and diners are separated.

      ECO: [re]building paths between technologies, humanities, engineering, mathematics, arts, and sciences

      Ricardo Dal Farra
      Argentina- Canada

      EChO is a project that focuses on how the media arts can help find answers to the challenging and complex problems of the planetary environmental crisis. It seeks to understand how art can serve to build essential links between the sciences, the humanities, activism, and the definition of public policies. EChO proposes to create a public online database dedicated to electronic art projects that focus on environmental issues. It also adds the opportunity of a virtual meeting point that facilitates communication between potential actors who can help build "positive social changes." It has an openly proactive orientation, and seeks to generate knowledge that can be used to inspire and enable collective action, connecting (electronic) art projects with science, new technologies, mathematics, engineering, and the humanities.

      New Technologies and the Objectification of Nature and Work

      Guillermo Foladori
      Mexico

      Presented by Icetex - Fellows Colombia

      The 4th Industrial Revolution expresses the contemporary scope of the objectification of nature and work. Human society develops new forms of creativity and communication, at the same time that it unleashes many other contradictions within itself and with external nature. Understanding the tendencies of this process is vital for a policy guided by a critical humanism.

      Artist as Inventor. Uno sguardo archeologico ai media, all'arte

      Valentino Catricalà
      Italy

      Today we live in a complex society. New media such as next-generation computers, smartphones, tablets, and consoles are increasingly present in our private and public lives. These changes are revolutionizing our environment, customs and the way we communicate. The notion of "media" is commonly related to the devices or tools that surround us, they are often still analyzed with a deterministic approach. The practice of artists, however, questions the idea of a linear evolution of cinema and the media. Without prejudicial interest in the difference between new and old media, artists will mix the images, sounds and processes of different media, coherently renewing concepts of evolution, giving rise to a new vitality in the development of film and media (Krauss , Brian Arthur, Gould). As Oliver Grau stated, “For more than 50 years, media art has combined the latest technologies with the big questions of our time: artists have critically observed visions of the life sciences and projections on artificial life, The utopias of neuroscience, robotics and cyborgs", thus rethinking the concept of "medium". Italy has been one of the leading countries in this context.
