Cosmicomics @ Elektra, May 9-13 PDF Print

Based on previous work with Meteor Shower, Cosmicomics realizes a fantastical projected sky animated by a fusion of lunar dreams inspired by Italo Calvino’s novel, and by the cosmology of the quantum inflationary universe created by Alan Guth, Andre Linde, et al. A large cailing-mounted display opens a window into a fable of a cosmos, filled with liquid light and sound that dance to movement, epoch, and the alchemical condition of the Moon.

Dr. Helga Wild and Dr. Niklas Damiris at TML PDF Print

The Topological Media Lab at Concordia University, and partners, invite two internationally respected scholars and long-time researchers from Silicon Valley Dr. Niklas Damiris and Dr. Helga Wild for a site visit capped by a public discussion.

Dr. Helga Wild and WaterCooler Logic's participatory ethnography mediates and catalyzes human relations and processes in the detailed life of complex organizations. On one hand it is practically embedded in everyday life, and on the other hand it draws on and reflects concepts and approaches from ethnography, anthropology, rhythmanalysis, and complexity theory.

Dr. Niklas Damiris continues his discussion of a model for valuing the work of vigorously incommensurate people in the co-production of social value. Although the model is quite general, it is particularly relevant and powerful for those artists and humanists who are trying to fund and value work that is not directly tied to, for example, technology development or entertainment industry, yet who aspire to adopt or adapt the same material technologies, sources of funding, or models of R&D work.
