General Introduction

ColloqueProgrammation orientÃe art 2


At the time of the previous  Art-oriented Programming  symposium in
2004, the question of programming in art was being hotly debated. Three
years later, works continue to be made but they seem to have less
visibility. Is this due to a decrease in artistic production? Was it
simply a  fashion � Has programming really become an art? Many works
have been made during these last few years and perhaps even more
theoretical statements. It has become urgent to clarify matters and make
a  fresh start Â. To avoid repeating or caricaturing what has already
been done, we must objectively take stock of the situation, sort out the
stakes and open up a new critical space. 

In five sessions over two days, this symposium proposes to explore
current art and thinking in this field, still lively and rich in
promise.

Art and Code : Exhibit/preserve/collect

(Friday 19 October â 3-6 pm - amphithÃÃtre Richelieu)


With : 

Inke Arns(Directrice artistique de Hartware MedienKunstVerein,
Dortmund), 

Wolf Lieser(Directeur de la galerie [DAM], Berlin), 

StÃphane Maguet(Directeur de la galerie numeriscausa, Paris), 

Gilles Rouffineau(Professeur à lâÃcole supÃrieure dâart de Valence,
LAM), 

Antoine Schmitt(Artiste, Paris), 

Nicolas ThÃly(MaÃtre de confÃrences, Università Paris 1 -
PanthÃon-Sorbonne, LAM).


Exhibiting and preserving programmed works is a problem that requires
many adjustments with the artist. Does an old work presented on a new
machine lose part of its essence? How can we deal with the obsolescence
of media? How can we give a future to works so heavily dependent on
constantly changing technologies and software? As for the art market,
will it be able to adapt?

Art and code : What history for what future?

( Friday 19 October â 6-8:30 pm - amphithÃÃtre Richelieu)


With : 

Andreas Broeckmann(Historien dâart, Directeur artistique de TESLA,
Berlin), 

Geoff Cox(Artiste, Lecturer à lâUniversità de Plymouth), 

Darko Fritz(Artiste et commissaire dâexposition, Amsterdam/Zagreb), 

David-Olivier Lartigaud(Università Paris 1 - PanthÃon-Sorbonne, LAM).




The creations of the  computer art   pioneers  of the sixties and
seventies have found a new vitality: celebrated anew, appreciated for
their formal and conceptual clarity, these works seem all the more
readable in our contemporary context. 

But isn't  programmed art  too young to be contemplating its past?
Could this be a sign of withdrawl, a need to find its place in a
genealogy and thereby prove its worth? Or, on the contrary, does this
return to the sources offer a change of viewpoint necessary for a
renewal of the topic?

Art and Code : Coded Cities/ Programmed Maps

(Saturday 20 October â 9:30-12:30 am - amphithÃÃtre Richelieu)


With : 

Maurice Benayoun(Artist, Università Paris 1 - PanthÃon-Sorbonne,
Artistic Director of CITU, LAM), 

Wilfried Hou Je Bek(Artist, Utrecht), 

Karen OâRourke, (MaÃtre de confÃrences, Università Paris 1 -
PanthÃon-Sorbonne, LAM), 

Tania Ruiz(Artist, Paris), 

Jo Walsh(Artist, London).


Code and programming seem to adopt the very shape of questions relating
to urban life. Dynamic maps and 3-D cartography reflect a new approach
to the city seen as a database, a potential in which the artist finds
not only inspiration but also the material of her creation. More than
just a screen, isn't the city the new place for software art?

Art and Code : Aesthetics / Culture / Society

(Saturday 20 October - 2-5pm - amphithÃÃtre Richelieu)


With :

Wendy Chun(Professeur, Brown University, Providence), 

Matthew Fuller(Critique, Center for Cultural Studies, Goldsmiths
College, Università de Londres), 

Alexander Galloway(Artiste, Professeur Assistant à lâUniversità de New
York), 

Olga Goriunova(Critique, co-fondatrice de runme.org, Moscou), 

David Zerbib(Università Paris 1 - PanthÃon-Sorbonne, LETA).


The question of programming in art is founded in -or derives its meaning
from - a broader context, that of a kind of  digital culture Â. What do
we mean when we use this expression? Does this culture really exist? If
so, has artistic programming participated in defining this culture or is
it simply a product thereof ? The question comes up regularly as to the
existence of an aesthetics specific to this  culture Â. Is this
existence supported by facts? Or is it merely a theoretical
construction?

Art et Code : Langages

(samedi 20 octobre - 17h/20h30 - amphithÃÃtre Richelieu)


Avec : 

Samuel Bianchini(Artiste, MaÃtre de confÃrences, Università de
Valenciennes, LAM), 

Christophe Bruno(Artiste, Paris), 

Philippe Codognet(Professeur à Keio University, Tokyo), 

Jacques Lafon(Directeur de lâÃcole europÃenne supÃrieure de lâimage,
site dâAngoulÃme), 

Miller Puckette(Professeur à lâUniversità de Californie, crÃateur de Max
et Pure Data), 

Douglas Edric Stanley(Artiste, http://www.abstractmachine.net).


Free and/or open-source software open up a whole new approach to
creation using computers. The success of Pure Data, for example, shows
that exemption from payment is not the only reason for this popularity:
these applications seem better able to meet certain artists'
expectations. But how far does this go? Are productions using free
software really that different from works made using commercial software
and computer languages?

The question of language is not limited to programming. Web 2.0 opens up
a new set of problems, that are either exciting or frightening,
according to one's viewpoint, in which language is central.

ART ++


Ãditions HYX


to be published at the end of October



Modification of Nintendo cartridges, website hacking, experimental
software or poetry written in Perl... What has programming in the field
of art been doing for the past ten years? By assembling texts, either
original or unpublished in French, this book proposes to analyze and
understand the impact of code, programming and digitalization of data on
art practise. In their different contributions, theoreticians, critics
and artists reveal the new aesthetic, technical and cultural stakes
linked to what is known today as  the digital revolution Â.


This publication follows the symposium Art-oriented Programming, which
took place at the Università Paris 1 -PanthÃon-Sorbonne in 2004. It is
supported by the Scientific Comittee of the DÃlÃgation aux arts
plastiques as part of the research line Meaning and Use of Computer
Programming in Art.
