Ryuichi Sakamoto Will Receive the Vision Award 2020

He scored the brawl between a man and a bear, gave sound to Buddha’s silence and worked with David Bowie. That alone should be enough to realize how beautiful and powerful the 2020 Vision Award Ticinomoda is on the Locarno Festival.

Comment lutter contre l’amplification des discriminations par l’IA ?

Pourquoi les IA peuvent-elles conduire à des pratiques discriminatoires liées au genre ou à l’origine ethnique, sociale, géographique ? Les algorithmes qui constituent sur nos IA ne sont pas neutres. Ils ne font qu’apprendre ce qu’on leur donne à voir. Ils peuvent être affectés de nombreux biais qui ont des effets discriminatoires sur les individus. Ainsi, lorsqu’on affirme qu’une IA prend des décisions, c’est en fait le résultat d’une chaîne de décisions quasi instantanées qui va de la production de l’algorithme à son utilisation.

INVITATION DERNIERES PLACES // RÊVE PARTY #10 DE L’ATELIER ARTS SCIENCES – 12 SEPTEMBRE 2019 !

RÊVE PARTY #10

AU MUSÉE HÉBERT – JEUDI 12 SEPT. 2019 à 18h

L’Atelier Arts Sciences vous convie à sa prochaine Rêve Party au Musée Hébert dans le cadre de l’exposition Johan Barthold Jongkind !

Un voyage dans le temps du 17e siècle à nos jours… entre toiles célèbres et art numérique !

Retrouvez le trait de crayon, la palette de couleurs et les formes sculpturales grâce à un dispositif numérique innovant.

Après une visite de l’exposition Jongkind, la plongée dans l’univers du peintre se poursuivra grâce au dispositif numérique de l’artiste visuelle Pauline de Chalendar.

Pour présenter son travail de recherche qu’elle mène à l’Atelier Arts Sciences depuis fin 2018 l’artiste sera accompagnée de nos partenaires : les entreprises iséroises ISKN et SIP CONSEIL qui expliqueront leurs dernières technologies et le savoir-faire qu’ils ont mis à disposition pour créer cet outil de médiation unique.

Pauline n’en est pas à son coup d’essai puisqu’elle a déjà plongé son geste, son trait et ses outils dans des gravures de Rembrandt. L’équipe de La Fondation Glénat qui a accompagné la création de ce premier dispositif visible au sein du cabinet Rembrandt au Couvent Sainte-Cécile partagera cette collaboration inédite.

Seront également présents tous les partenaires et entreprises du réseaux de l’Atelier Arts Sciences.

INVITATION and LATEST EAF NEWS

Dear Friends of electronic-art.foundation

Firstly, we would like to invite you and your party to our AFTER WORK art auction and wine tasting event, operated by VINUM, from 5 pm to 10 pm on 10.07.2019 in Zurich.

Kindly REGISTER here
 
Secondly, please find below our latest EAF NEWS

TO BE PART OF THE ART

In the EAFproductions, the common thread running through our creative work has always been that of «to be part of the art».

Whether from the «melting Electronic-art with environment» installation in the nature reserve and northernmost rice field in Europe, the «Castello del Sole Ascona», or  in the presentation of the «fog sound environment» art off-space as part of the «Signs of Life» film category on the 70th anniversary of the Locarno Festival.

THE COLLECTIVE EXPERIENCE

The collective – and generation-spanning experience – is intended to provide impulses and, for a short period of time, to stimulate all six senses. Senses that are increasingly threatening to become stunted and dulled in this far too quickly spinning world.

ART, SCIENCE LABORATORY HUB

In the last few months, our international foundation has made an expedient decision to focus on our «to be part of the art» approach by illustrating the melting of «art & science» with botanic gardens. That’s why, in spring 2020, we will be moving our HQ from Zurich to Lake Maggiore in Italy, where the «art, science Laboratory HUB» at LABELLATROVATA will be launched.

Get electrified! and let’s meet up either next week at our VINUM EVENT or, at the latest,  next  summer  at our opening event of the project closest to our heart,  «LABELLATROVATA art, science LABORATORY HUB at  Lake Maggiore in Northern ITALY ».

In gleeful anticipation,
turning electricity into art.

Yours truly, Walter Hügli
