Bizarre ? Des humains qui jouent avec des robots, des machines qui voudraient devenir humaines, l’humanité du 21eme siècle consomme et possède des outils qui désirent maintenant apprendre, la réalité et le virtuel n’ont jamais été aussi proches. Dieu ne serait t il qu’une équation ? L’homme augmenté sera t il la future norme ?
Le festival GAMERZ revient pour sa 9e édition à Aix-en-Provence du 10 au 20 octobre 2013. Cette année, plus de 50 artistes internationaux présentent des installations multimédia dans 4 lieux culturels de la ville.
Artistes, professionnels de la création issus de différents réseaux européens se joignent au festival pour proposer au public un circuit d’expositions entièrement gratuit qui, au-delà des aspects récréatifs et culturels, éveillent des réflexions sur les métamorphoses de notre société.
Interventions époustouflantes, concerts improbables, conférences participatives et rencontres professionnelles alimenteront une programmation riche et novatrice à la frontière des arts et des technologies en téléportant le public au cœur de ces nouvelles formes d’expression.
Le BOZAR ELECTRONIC ARTS FESTIVAL (BEAF), événement annuel unique en Belgique, propose pour sa deuxième édition trois jours et nuits consacrés aux cultures électroniques. Qu'il s'agisse de musique, d'installations audiovisuelles, de performances ou de workshops, le festival entend faire découvrir les artistes qui font vivre ces disciplines aujourd'hui.
L'édition 2013 du festival proposera une programmation musicale portée par Modeselektor, Jon Hopkins, Juan Atkins & Moritz Von Oswald, Regis, Vatican Shadow et Silent Servant, un focus sur le label berlinois PAN et bien d'autres, une collaboration musicale axée sur le dub avec l'Ancienne Belgique, et aussi de nombreuses installations et créations "arts numériques" notamment en collaboration avec le festival québécois ELEKTRA, invité de ce BEAF 2013. Les différents espaces du Palais des Beaux-Arts s'ouvrent à nouveau pour une immersion totale dans les cultures digitales.
APREM est une plate-forme qui offre des expertises et donc des points de vue différents aux intervenants et publics présents. Son principe fondateur étant de connecter et mettre en commun les connaissances à partir des « spécialités » de chacun. Adoptant une perspective artistique à la fois interdisciplinaire et du lien social comme cadre d'analyse d'une époque de bouleversements, l'enjeu d'APREM est de faire se rencontrer des artistes d’un nouveau genre (et en devenir) capables d’explorer les chemins croisés de la théorie critique, de l’art, de la technologie et de l’activisme (hacktivisme). Cela requiert d'actualiser et faire progresser les cadres d'expérience de praticiens provenant d'univers (artistiques, intellectuels et scientifiques) a priori éloignés. Vu l'ambition du projet, il a été important de poser un cadre méthodologique rigoureux. Le choix du terme « méthodologique » plutôt que « théorique » reflète la volonté de ne pas s'en tenir à une « thèse » mais bien de développer la structure conceptuelle capable d'aller à la rencontre et d'être à l'écoute des pratiques, des regards qui leur sont portés et de la manière dont ces pratiques s'intègrent dans les tissus sociaux. Ce cadre nous semble important pour le développement transversal des arts numériques dans un monde en mutations. Si les questions de définition des arts numériques gardent leur pertinence, nous pensons que cela ne doit pas bloquer l'utilisation de l'ordinateur de manière large dans la création artistique.
Lighthouse's digital culture conference, Improving Reality, is returning for a third year this September. Expect tours through worlds that artists are growing rather than making, critical revelations of the systems and infrastructures that shape our world, and narratives of radical alternative futures.
An inspiring day of talks that explores how artists and designers are shifting our perceptions of the world. This year, major thinkers such as Keller Easterling, artist and synthetic biologist, Daisy Ginsberg, and gonzo futurist, Justin Pickard, are amongst our speakers.
We are excited to reveal that our media partner for Improving Reality 2013 is Arc. Arc was created by the makers of the New Scientist, and has emerged as one of the most exciting forums for writing about the near-future, science and science fiction. Arc will be sending a group of correspondents to the conference to capture the discussions. Their editor, Simon Ings will also be contributing as a moderator. ...

Piemonte Share is announcing a new edition of the Share Prize, the international competition designed to discover, promote and support art in the digital age.
Entries for the Share Prize can be submitted from 20h June to 20th August 2013, by completing the entry form on the website www.toshare.it. The Share Prize this year will focus on the theme for the 9th Share Festival, entitled Real Time | Real Space.
This year, Share Festival will be shining the spotlight on how communications have become simultaneous and geolocalized in contemporary cities, sharpening its focus and critique onto the integration of digital networks in the urban environment.
Artists are not just aesthetic messengers but social agents, who use networks to change the way we think about media and relational space. The artistic practices they pioneer create critical prisms through which to view urban space. The artistic realm is overlapped with the physical, urban world to explore a new dimension in which art can redirect the social and political leanings of networks, communities and artists into performances.

City Sonic 2013 - 07 to 21.09.2013 (opening 06.09 à 18.30)
After celebrating its 10th anniversary in September 2012 in several cities of the Federation Wallonia-Brussels, City Sonic festival, initiated by Transcultures, Interdisciplinary Center for Sound and Digital Cultures, in co-production with le manège Mons and in partnership with the City of Mons gives importance to the sound emergences (Belgian and European young talents) for its eleventh edition, which will focus on the city centre of Mons. The concept of innovation is more than ever at the heart of the festival with forty artists presenting new forms of instrument and creations to be found in unusual places, daring collaborations that multiply (artist/engineer, musician/poet ...).
The opening of City Sonic#11 begins with a guided tour by the artists on September 6th at 6pm leaving the site des Arbalestriers to the Salle Saint-Georges on the Grand'Place. The opening of this edition of City Sonic is also associated, for the event part, to the European project Park In Progress will occupy the site des anciens Abattoirs with a "European Night of young creation."
Park In Progress is a European mobility programme (supported by the Culture Programme of the European Union), which gathers together young artists and young professional creators taking part in the different stages of the production of an artwork, around a joint project that requests transdisciplinary experience.
Artworks made by using new technologies are no longer only on the margins. Today, artists from all over the world are constantly creating new worlds of experience and increasingly take positions that reflect the digital age: on the internet, on canvas, in photography, as sculpture, installation or as software. UNPAINTED is a new art fair which shows together with 50 exhibiting international galleries, artistic positions reflecting the digital age, ranging from historical to current view points.. The concept of the fair is embedded across a broad programme that is extremely informative about new media art and forms an interface between the informed art audience, the active new media art scene and the interested public.

What happened in the BEOPEN sound portal? ...and at the Symposium?
Sound art and noisy hand dryers get equal hearing at BE OPEN's Sounding Space Symposium at Chelsea College of Art
6-7 June saw a host of sound aficionados gathering at Chelsea College of Art's Sounding Space symposium for discussions centred around the BE OPEN Sound Portal. This event was both a showcase for work produced by UAL students, who have been using the Portal to develop sound art, and marked the culmination of BE OPEN's year-long exploration into sensory design.
The Portal is a state-of-the-art, ambisonic space, devised by BE OPEN, Arup and the London Design Festival. UAL students have had an opportunity to explore it in three quite different ways, with the results of their work being played in the Portal during the Symposium. Pieces ranged from fictional conversation, to the sounds of microphones being dragged along the floor, to rhythmic drumming and singing....
BE OPEN is a cultural and social initiative that aims to harness the brainpower of creative leaders through a system of conferences, competitions, exhibitions, master classes and art events.
Behind the creation of BE OPEN stands an international team united around Russian businesswoman, entrepreneur and philanthropist, Elena Baturina. A long-term, international, multidisciplinary, multi-faceted project, BE OPEN will allow leading contemporary thinkers and creatives to meet up with those in the media and business, discuss their ideas and visions and ultimately make change happen.
Our commitment is to become a bridge between the great minds of our time – philosophers, sociologists, designers, architects, artists, publishers, writers, businessmen and opinion leaders— and the promising new minds of the next generation.
La littérature numérique s’offre à lire, à voir, à entendre, à jouer et à « toucher » en divers lieux culturels parisiens (Bibliothèque nationale de France, Bibliothèque publique d’information du centre Pompidou, le Cube-centre de création numérique).
Plus de 200 artistes et chercheurs, performeurs et auteurs, se réunissent pour l’occasion : petits et grands lecteurs, curieux et amateurs sont invités à découvrir les nouvelles formes de la création littéraire multimédia. Lors des performances, le texte littéralement « mis en scène » devient un subtil terrain de jeu, et se construit en connivence avec le public. Détournant les codes traditionnels de la lecture, il provoque, surprend, étonne, déroute, il n’est jamais là où on l’attend.
La manifestation débutera par un débat permettant de pointer les enjeux de la littérature numérique.
