PORT 2010 Conference - BIOTOPIA
October 15-17, 2010
Aalborg, Denmark

Today, where the tension and exchange between digital and biological existence is becoming ever more evident, a new situation of art emerges. Evolving in-between the atoms and the bits, in the words of Roy Ascott, art performs in “™wet”™ interfaces. Using the term “™moist”™ media, he addresses the occasion where technological innovative art is moving out of the boundaries of “™digital art”™, and away from the screens and “™interactivity”™. Instead, art finds itself in a new situation, where a tension between techno-aesthetic and bio-logical (perceptual) systems are central.

PORT 20:10 International Conference / BIOTOPIA SYMPOSIUM examines how art and artists ‘manage’ this situation - how it navigates the wet zone - and how artists enter into new roles as scientific investigators or…?

What is the ideal situation of Bio + art? Are we approaching a ‘Biotopia’ ““ does it exist?

What happens in the nexus of social + technology + art?

Invited speakers include IEET Fellow Natasha Vita-More and Stelarc.
