Conference on Neuroaesthetics at Goldsmiths


Dates:
Fri May 20, 2005 00:00 - Tue Apr 19, 2005

For Immediate Release:

NEUROAESTHETICS

Organized by Warren Neidich, ACE-AHRB Fellow, Goldsmiths College with assistance from Charlie Gere, Institute for Cultural Research, Lancaster University.

IAN GULLAND LECTURE THEATRE, GOLDSMITHS COLLEGE, FRIDAY AND SATURDAY MAY 20 AND 21ST FROM 9:30 am-7:00 pm daily

Art is increasingly bound up with knowledge production and information distribution. As of this trend, artists have begun to investigate the brain and Neuroaesthetics is a means by which they are accomplishing it.
Neuroaesthetics is a dynamic process through which the questions of neuroscience are made “ready-mades”. Concepts such as sensation, perception, memory and recently networks, plasticity and sampling operate within philosophical, cultural, sociological, psychological,historical and economic milieus and are concurrently inciting artistic experimentation.
Neuroaesthetics describes new conditions for the production of a new population of objects, object relations and non-objects which in the end can be differentially sampled by the plastic brain providing a means by which culture may play a role in sculpting neural networks. As such the importance of art in the larger bio-political contexts should not be over looked.

Goldsmiths College and the Arts Council of England have assembled a distinguished group of artists, curators, scientists and philosophers to explore the following topics: 1. How curators explore notions of the Neuro-Sensorial-Cognitive. 2. How new optical technologies create altered subjectivity. 3. The meaning of the term “The Cultured Brain”. 4. The brain as the new site of bio-political interactions. 5. How drugs and altered states of consciousness influenced Minimalism and Post-Minimalism.
6. How notions of Brain influence Architectural forms and processes 7. Art praxis and artist Interventions in the late twentieth Century.

Lecture/demonstration by Cory Arcangel


Dates:
Thu Dec 16, 2004 00:00 - Fri Dec 10, 2004

Greetings:

Please join me for a lecture/demonstration by Cory Arcangel at 6:00 PM on Thursday, December 2, in the LeRoy Neiman Gallery in Dodge Hall on Columbia University's Morningside Campus at 116th and Broadway (see map at http://www.columbia.edu/about_columbia/map/dodge.html).

Cory Arcangel is a computer artist whose work has been exhibited in the Whitney Biennial, the American Museum of the Moving Image, Eyebeam, Foxy Productions, Tate Britain, and Team Gallery. He is a founding member of BEIGE, a group of computer programmers and enthusiasts who recycle obsolete computers and video game systems to make art and music, and a member of RSG (Radical Software Group). You can find Cory's work online at http://www.beigerecords.com/cory.

In this presentation, "Page Scraping, Disassembly, and Other Assorted Techniques for Making Art from Other People's Code," Cory will demonstrate his work and discuss its relationship to technology and media culture.

Cory writes: "My work is inspired by and functions as a means to understand my own media saturated existence. Since the present and future is filtered through the past, my work with digital media technology is directly informed by my time spent with television, music, video games and early Macintosh computers. This interest focused and crystallized during my time spent as a classical guitar major and TAMARA student at Oberlin Conservatory of Music and College. I used the knowledge, discipline and dedication acquired in my studies of classical music and applied them to the similarly structured environment of working with computer code. This lecture will focus on my tendency as an artist to work fluidly between sampled images, music, and code."

This is the fifth lecture in a series on Open Source Culture. For more information about the series, and streaming video of previous lectures, please visit http://www.columbia.edu/cu/arts/dmc/lectures.

The Art & Technology Lectures are organized by the Digital Media Center and sponsored by the Computer Music Center. Streaming video of the lectures is produced in partnership with the Columbia Center for New Media Teaching and Learning.

Conference: The Phantom Limb Phenomena @ Goldsmiths College in London


Dates:
Sat Jan 15, 2005 00:00 - Wed Nov 24, 2004

For Immediate Release:

The Phantom Limb Phenomena: A Neurobiological Diagnosis With Aesthetic Cultural and Philosophical Implications.

A conference to be held at Goldsmiths College, Saturday and Sunday, January 15th, and 16th, 2005.

Organized by Warren Neidich, Department of Visual Arts, Goldsmiths College and Jules Davidoff, Department of Psychology, Goldsmiths College

Since its original description in 1866 by the Neurologist S. Mitchell the phantom limb phenomena has attracted many scholars across a broad spectrum of discourses. It describes the condition, found in many amputees, in which sensation of the removed limb persists. As such it has served as a metaphor for many ideas in other fields beyond the scope of neurobiology and neuro-psychology, such as, philosophy, psychoanalysis, cultural studies, anthropology, visual cultural, literature, film and art.

This conference will investigate the following: 1.The Cognitive Neuroscientific and Neuropsychological Implications of the Phantom Limb 2. The Psychoanalytic and Philosophical Implications of the Phantom Limb 3.The Phantom Limb as Cultural Probe 4: Artistic Responses to the Phantom Limb.

Participants include: Peter Brugger- Professor Neurology, University of Zurich, Switzerland, Elizabeth Cohen-University of Rochester, Chris Frith-Wellcome Principal Research Fellow Professor in Neuropsychology, Deputy Director, Leopold Muller Functional Imaging Laboratory, Eleanor Kaufman-Dept of Comparative Literature, UCLA, Norman Klein- California Institute of the Arts, Scott Lash- Director of the Center for Cultural Studies, Goldsmiths, James Leach-Dept. of Anthropology, Cambridge, Mac MacLachlan -Co-Director of the Dublin Psychoprosthetics Group, Dave
