Museum of Vancouver - Lively Objects: Enchantment And Disruption
Curator(s)/Director(s):
- Curators Statement Lively Objects is dedicated to the memory of Wendy Coburn, whose work was influential in the exhibition’s conceptualisation and who passed away during its development. Lively Objects explores the seduction of things that seem to possess, or to be possessed by life. It brings together a collection of objects that vibrate with vitality through mechanical, magical or mythical forces. The exhibition addresses the idea of enchantment in a contemporary context and asks why and how, in an age of rationality, we are attracted by the animis... [Read more]

Curators Statement
Beyond the Trees considers mediated representations of nature and the ways our perspectives shift between physical and virtual experiences. Both Vancouver-based collective WALLPAPERS (Nicolas Sassoon, Sara Ludy and Sylvain Sailly) and West Coast modernist Emily Carr invite us to reflect on their perceptions of British Columbia’s coastal landscape, the former through the use of digitally animated patterns and the latter by means of nuanced brushstrokes of line and colour. In both, nature is viewed through powerful aesthetic filters.<... [Read more]
Works include:
- Curators Statement 5600K refers to the colour temperature of a defined, white light that has become a standard in film production, used to replicate the appearance of natural light at the brightest time of day. It is understood as both real and false: a verisimilitude, a simulacrum. The manipulation of light in visceral, illusionary and poetic ways, the attempt to dismantle boundaries, space, structures, bodies and perception itself, the fascination with finding new languages of visual experience… all are of particular interest to the three artists in this exhi...

Works include:
- Curator Statement Many of the works in this show use specific objects, or readymades, as a material starting point. Readymades make for interesting material for artmaking as they previously were developed with human user interaction as a key consideration in their creation, necessary innovation that have grown familiar in the day to day. These objects are also representative of the quotidian, the most ordinary and habitually unnoticed. They are stand-ins for lives built up habitually in daily experience, by the distillation of ordinary expectations of the wor... [Read more]
Works include:
- Curators Statement ARCTICNOISE is a media installation that draws on archival film footage and sound materials sourced from the Isuma Archive at the National Gallery of Canada, as well as sound and film materials from the artist’s personal collection, onsite research obtained from a trip to Igloolik, and other ethnographical material. Conceived as an Indigenous response to Glenn Gould’s celebrated composition “The Idea of the North”, Inutiq will appropriate Gould’s piece as a musical score, paired with new voices and imagery to produce a layered and mul...

Works include:
- Curator Statement The project is presented at 221A’s exhibition room located in Chinatown, Vancouver, where it is undergoing intensive neighbourhood gentrification and experiencing crude orientalist marketing campaigns that add to the ongoing crisis of affordability and cultural homogenization.

Works include:
- Curator Statement Texts that move, respond to touch, are created by bots, are evoked and performed through augmented and virtual reality, that digitally remix print works, extend print text to the digital medium or digital text into print environments – all speak to ways artists in the 21st century are questioning assumptions about methods of production and rethinking notions of audience engagement with textual objects like books and creative output like literary art.

The event thematic of Disruption provokes us to consider our own historical situation within crisis and flux. In a period of social, political, industrial and environmental turmoil, broad and diverse groups of people have been formally committed to a haphazard exploration of un/de-regulated interstices of the physical and the virtual in hopes of finding workarounds, new grades of paydirt, and perhaps even the odd revolutionary...

Information Erupts into Perception
- Curators Statement Screenings and Performance, Curated by Samirah Alkassim and Laura U. Marks This program comprises two parts, a screening of short works and a live performance. These works identify patterns of information that lie below visible and audible thresholds and bring them into perception. Drawn largely but not entirely from the Arab world, the films, videos, video database (CAMP), and live cinema performance (VJ Um Amel) are all alert to seemingly random patterns that, when organized into information, can be rendered audiovisually. Moiré patterns, shadow pu... [Read more]

Works include:
- Curators Statement Generative music software installation (2015) Musebots are pieces of software that autonomously create music, collaboratively with other musebots. The goal of this project is to establish a creative platform for experimenting with musical autonomy, open to people developing cuttingedge music AI, or simply exploring the creative potential of generative processes in music. Not simply a robot jam, but individual virtual instrumentalists coming together, like a band, to autonomously create (in this case) downtempo EDM. For this Canadian premiere ... [Read more]

- Curator Statement In the context of ISEA’s 21st edition in Vancouver, MUTEK is proud to present a series of audiovisual performances from some of Québec’s most internationally renowned and emerging artists working in this fi eld. With The MUTEK Cabaret, MUTEK deliberately recalls and echoes The Electronic Cabaret, a program presented during the last ISEA symposium in Canada, which took place in Montréal in 1995. In many respects, the event of 1995 marked the beginning of a process that led to Montréal’s emergence as a digital arts hub, creating a lasting... [Read more]
Works include:
- Curator Statement AV Disruption brings together a program of audio, and audio video performances that exemplify what it means to bridge research and practice. The four performances are solidly grounded in academic research, whether in computer music or generative and interactive systems. Instead of simply using the current software available to produce audio-video pieces, the artists in this program have developed custom software to craft unique audio visual systems and instruments that result in new and disruptive audio visual experiences.

Works include:
- Over the past 15 years the New Forms Festival has been a mainstay of Vancouver’s media arts community. Through the festival and other events year-round, we are proud to have worked with the collection of artists, collectives and institutions that make up the diversity of Vancouver’s artistrun culture. It is an honour to be a programming partner with ISEA2015, and to be co-presenting a number of works and performances during the internationally recognized Symposium. ISEA2015 marks the start of a new era for New Forms, as we move from a festival focus toward an organization committed to year... [Read more]

Curator Statement
ISEA2015 presents a historic opportunity to stage Vancouver’s first Algorave. An Algorave is a live performance of danceable music that is generated from algorithms, often using live coding techniques, so that instead of playing synthesizers, drums, and keyboards, the artists generate sound by writing code. Starting from a blank page these artists create music making algorithms with programming languages such as IXI Lang, Overtone, Puredata, Max/MSP, SuperCollider, Impromptu, Fluxus and Tidal.
The Algorave movement originated in the com... [Read more]
