COSMIC THINGS #2
Interval. That is willing to see the invisible (finding the projections reflected and/or finding the swap)

A week of discussions and workshops in which artists, scientists and researchers of various fields are asked to present a remark, a thought on space, time, energy, matter. There will be conferences, competitions, performances and installations, and there is the possibility to use the space of the gallery to develop the work and the ideas during the whole week.
At the current stage, the #2 scenario appears a bit dim: thermodynamic models of catastrophic failures and revolutions, software wars and surprise openings, warm centers and dark matter, difficult tracks and the space conquest, “naked from the ’98” and non-Euclidean polytheism, dark energy and conjuring tricks, rainbow and Uncanny valley.
COSE COSMICHE / COSMIC THINGS
“The stars are matter,
We’re matter,
But it doesn’t matter.” – Don Van Vliet (Captain Beefheart)
A workshop in which artists, scientists and researchers of various fields are asked to present a reflection, a thought on space, time, energy, matter, void.
Through language we have defined the universe in which we live in with concepts like space, time, matter, energy. The arts and the sciences have used these concepts to propose always new shapes, ideas and theories to represent and explain the universe.
But just how big is the influence of the different ways of perception/observation, calculation/measurement and imagination?
What does a scientist observe of space, what does the artist, what the musician? How do they measure what they observe? How do they imagine what they are not yet able to observe, while observing the same thing? In short, how does a scientist perceive/measure/imagine time, space, cosmos and how does an artist… and what can one do the one of the imagination and of the knowledge of the other.
When we speak about black holes and dark matter it seems as if we are sliding into a region where the rationality of calculations and of scientific hypothesis trespass into the language of art, of poetry, of mysticism.
The effect of the imaginary component “overtakes” the scientific theories?
‘Let’s talk about it’… we will try to understand if we are talking about the same things or if each discipline has now the instruments to invent a cosmos of his own, for his own ends.
Cose Cosmiche will be developing in three moments to give the invited researchers the opportunity to know each other and to interact for collaborations and productions that will be presented in the next stages.
