Grant Corbishley, a senior lecturer and coordinator of the Collaborative Projects courses at WelTec in Wellington, shares his thoughts on the last few days of the residency, and the symposium which followed.
Within the persistent hum of atmos, we are now also hearing the increasingly clear message of a shifting climate. atmos gathers artists working at the borders of science, technology and ecology. The exhibition presents a selection of international and New Zealand artists who incorporate aspects of the weather directly into their practices, drawing attention to the agency of unpredictable natural phenomena. These are artists working at the borders of science, technology and ecology: some use weather in their art-making process.
“All paradises, all utopias are designed by who is not there, by the people who are not allowed in.” Toni Morrison ( Online NewsHour interview, Mar. 9, 1998) At some point networked computers made our lives better. But equally, it is worth questioning the role they play in the construction of our societies, our economies, our education and our culture.
Can TV really connect the world? Paik’s vision of television was far from Orwell’s, rather than the tools of oppression Paik foresaw a global environment of telethons, reality TV, and artistic experimentation. His was a utopian dream of the coming together of the technosocial environment.
