| Responsive Environment. Brussels 6/11 19h opening |
Responsive Environment 6/11 19h opening 7/11 - 8/11 exhibition from 12h to 19h OKNO has invited seven artists, connected by their study at the interfaculty of Artscience in Den Hague to work around the idea of a responsive environment. The idea of a responsive environment is to move away from static group exhibitions in white cube galleries and move towards making integrated installations that adapt to the space and context.They invited artists engage the OKNO space by making an instrument out of it. They interconnect ready-made modules and let them respond to impulses coming from either the environment, the visitor or other modules. After an intense workweek at OKNO, the environment is presented to the public. With Wolfgang Bittner, Lyndsey Housden, Lars Kynde, Selena Savic, Jeroen Uyttendaele, Dewi De Vree and Rachida Ziani. more info |

capacity to create social spaces that go beyond the purely commercial and standardized. PlayLab is also interested in the history of games and video games as it examines its possible genealogies and studies its social, cognitive and psychological effects characteristic of video games today.

| Vague Terrain 15: .microsound |
The latest of edition of Vague Terrain is dedicated to celebrating the tenth anniversary of the .microsound community. Guest curated by the American composer Kim Cascone, the issue provides a range of commentary and context on "sub-atomic" musical aesthetics and a window into this globally distributed community of electronic musicians. In Cascone's own words .microsound is a fertile middle ground between "the ivory tower of sterile academia" and "the seizure-inducing din of the dance club". For those unacquainted with this zone of musical production, this collection of work provides a perfect introduction. http://vagueterrain.net/journal15 |
