SEA URCHIN
(Live)
Berlin

Sea Urchin (Astro Pietra and Leila Hassan),
is a vehicle of investigation that furthers their aim to explore a mirage of forms,

Il Trasloco (Moving Out of the Future) is an independent documentary from 1991, which tells the story of the Italian Autonomia movement of the 1970s. Set entirely in the flat that used to be the unofficial headquarters of the movement, and narrated by Franco “Bifo” Berardi, the film is a deeply personal account of the lives of those involved.
The translation and subtitling of this film is by Federico Campagna (Through Europe) and Richard John Jones (Auto Italia South East). Federico Campagna and Richard John Jones will be introducing the film.

Federico Campagna
The workshop « Moving Out of Il Tralsoco » will discuss some of the key concepts present in the documentary Il Trasloco. It will depart from that point, in order to attempt a critical exploration of contemporary issues of collectivity, creativity and emancipation. The nature of the workshop will be open and collaborative.

FEDERICO CAMPAGNA spent more than twenty years in Milan, where he worked as a political and literary activist, co-founding the street-poetry collective Eveline. In 2007 he moved to London, where he started working at the Max Wigram contemporary art gallery. In 2009 he started a long-term collaboration with the Italian Autonomia philosopher Franco Berardi ‘Bifo’, whose reader he is currently editing. After three years with the publishing workers’ cooperative Zed Books, in 2011 he has joined the radical publisher Verso Books.

RICHARD JOHN JONES has been based in London since 2004 after graduating from Central Saint Martins. He has been a core participant at the Unitednationsplaza ‘exhibition as school’ project in Mexico City and his work as an artist has been shown at institutions such as The Power Plant in Toronto and the Centro Cultural Sao Paulo. He works independently as an artist and also at the commissioning organisation Auto Italia. He specialises in moving image work and documentary and is currently developing a body of research on the archive as a site for cultural production through the social, political and economic framing of unstable identities.

WILLEM VAN WEELDEN has a background in social philosophy and visual art. He is committed to new media from 1990 onwards and has published on this topic in various magazines and catalogues. He was involved in numerous new media projects as a creative director and coach. Currently his focus is on writing and teaching.

FABRIZIO BASSO is an artist, activist and curator. His critical art practice has been shaped from the the observation of social reality and the collective consciousness of everyday histories and micro-history. For more than two decades he has been working with audio/radio works, videos and TV (as well street TV) exploring the related urban dimension and reality as framed by mass comunication devices, often subverting the very premises of private and public spheres.

FRANCESCO BERNARDELLI is an art writer/curator/lecturer working in the interzone of contemporary art, time-based media and performance. From 1999 on, he has been taking care of the video and film screening programs of Castello di Rivoli, Cont. Art Museum, Torino; in 2004/05 he co-catalogued its historical video collection and published essays on the historical connections between early performance, video art and contemporary dance. Recent projects include Split Subjects (De Appel, Amsterdam), Figures of Excess (Beursschouwburg, Brussels), Jef Cornelis: L’arte di rivelare l’arte (Castello di Rivoli, Torino) and CECI N’EST PAS DU CINÉMA! (National Film Museum - Castello di Rivoli, Torino).

After having studied Northern American Literature and Contemporary Art at the University of Turin, in 2007 FEDERICA MARTINI completed a PhD focusing on the evolution of the biennial exhibition format in the 1990s. From 2001 to 2003 she was research associate and Dissertation Advisor for Northern-American Literature and Contemporary Art at the University of Turin. From 2003 to 2007, she has collaborated with the Curatorial Department of the Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art, Rivoli-Turin. Since 2009, she is a curatorial associate at the Musée cantonal des Beaux-Arts, Lausanne. She has lectured and written on biennials and national representation in contemporary art exhibitions, exhibition history, collection theory and collaboration in the visual arts.

The Kafka Machine : a three Hours Testament

Sat, 03 Mar 2012 17:14:00 -0500

a project on Autonomia, Abstract Machines, Voices & the Production of Subjectivity!

Is an evolving, interactive sound installation by students of the IDUM (Interaction Desgin Unstable Media) department of the DOGtime course at the Rietveld Academie Amsterdam, and Willem van Weelden (mentor and tutor of that department). It is an experimental piece done to probe in a given interactive/curatorial environment the use of sounds as a dramaturgy to deliver an exposé with five ‘testaments/legacies’ that are related to the theme of the ‘La Radio Siamo Noi’ project organised by the HEAD and Laptop Radio (Laurent Schmid, et all). As LRSN points to the Autonomia movement and the use of radio as a media tactical weapon of alternative subjectivation, the project has set itself the task to investigate and work on five legacies that connect to this (media tactical) history : the testament of literature in casu that of Kafka (as a machinic literature), the testament of the Autonomia movement in Italy (by focussing on the trial of many of their members held in the early eighties), the testament of computopian ideas to use new technologies to create a new participatory literature (Ted Nelson), the testament of a new arising media condition set forth by Fritz Lang with his movie ‘Das Testament of Dr Mabuse’, and the testament of Felix Guattari’s ideas on post-media, desiring machines and minoritarian media. In the dramaturgy of these investigations six virtual presonae have been staged as ‘vehicles’ to connect to these ‘testaments’ : Kaspar Hauser, Dora Diamant, Max Weber, Gershem Scholem, Titorelli, and Dr Mabuse. These six ‘voices’ lead the visitor/participant into a trial in which he or she is, how Kafkaesque!, the accused party! Once inside the room there is no clear distinction between inside or outside; yet, little time is available to speak out!
