Sonic Acts Festival, The Poetics of Space

Posted: February 24th, 2010 | Author: admin | Filed under: Art, Design | Tags: , , , , , | No Comments »

The thirteenth annual Sonic Acts festival will be held from February 25- February 28. The festival combines the elements of art, space, and sound and attempts to answer these questions:

How is space defined by a work of art? What does a viewer or listener experience? How do technological artworks deal with the visual, auditory and psychological aspects of spatiality? How has the relationship between technology, space and architecture developed over the past few centuries? How have technological developments influenced our perception and representation of space, and how do we relate to the space that surrounds us?

Some Interesting Exhibits are:
21st Century Invisible Architectures: The Poetics of Transactivated Space, Saturday, 14:30 – 15:30, De Balie

Anarchic Spaces,Thursday, Friday & Saturday, from 20:00, Paradiso

Hans W. Koch: two rooms, flipped,Friday, Saturday & Sunday, 12:00 – 17:00, STEIM

Get your tickets here.
