A film programme organised by the Department of Digital
Art (University of Applied Arts Vienna, UBERMORGEN).
Today, a handful
of tech monopolies shape the digital infrastructures in which collective narratives emerge.
Content is constantly being
generated, gestures are repeated, memes mutate, and as we scroll, the question of what gives rise to these forms and who determines
what becomes visible recedes into the background.
The works by students in the Department of Digital Art focus
on practices of navigation, sharing and staging: a faceless selfie, a community of believers centred on a tofu creature, a
dream that interrupts routine before it swallows us whole.
To kick off the programme, Karin Ferrari’s work
DECODING
Katy Perry’s Dark Horse (THE WHOLE TRUTH) offers a broader perspective on digital logics and the production of reality.
With contributions from: Anton Paievski, Sei Jeung, Ghanishka Kedar, Dongjoo Kim and Karin Ferrari
(Guest lectuerer during the semester) in cooperation with Ursula Blickle Video Archive.
Organised by
Tina Kult, Stefanie Reisinger-Poovathinkal and Maja Kristufek.
