Join us at Waag Open on December 7th in Amsterdam for an insightful evening exploring the language of materials in our environment. This event will showcase two captivating art installations that delve into our relationship with the materials around us. Myles Merckel will present his thought-provoking installation, Magnetic_Zoology (2023), while Alicja Konkol will showcase her captivating video-essay, From Ore to More (2023). Both artists have recently won the prestigious KABK Waag Award 2023. Can materials truly speak? Merckel's work features the chirping of birds alongside the mechanical chirping of "bird-like" hard drives. By creating his own database of bird audio files labeled as "poor quality," Merckel highlights the resemblance between the chirping of birds and the squeaking sound of a malfunctioning hard drive. Through Magnetic_Zoology, he emphasizes how nature is often mediated by technology, a fact we often overlook. Konkol approaches the idea of speaking materials from a different perspective. By repeatedly melting and melding together archaeological artifacts from digital archives, she explores the breakdown and rearrangement of forms, along with the memories and entropies associated with them. In her project, silver emerges as a material that speaks not only when molded into a shape but also during the process of transmutation and transformation. The evening will include an artist talk by Myles Merckel, a video essay by Alicja Konkol, and a moderated discussion and Q&A session. Don't miss this opportunity to engage in stimulating conversations and discover new perspectives. Waag Open takes place at the historic Waaggebouw on the Nieuwmarkt. Tickets are available for €7.50.

This phenomenon has had a profound impact on society, perhaps even more so than physical reality itself. Rather than viewing these virtual worlds as empty and devoid of meaning, Emptiness & Infinite Space VII encourages us to consider how we can use technology to create infinite worlds. By exploring the ways in which art can shape these digital realms, we can provide the modern individual with new ways of perceiving and experiencing the world around them. The event will feature a conversation between artist Alexandra Crouwers, whose work delves into the perception of time and space, and philosopher Kirsten Poortier, whose research focuses on the bodily experience of art and new media installations. Join us at Arti et Amicitiae in Amsterdam on December 8, 2023, to explore the role of philosophy in this relationship with new worlds. This event is free and open to the public.
