HYBRIDS - TRONDHEIM MATCHMAKING 2008 - Festival for art and
technology - OCTOBER 17 AND 18.

 From medieval mythologies we are familiar with hybrid creatures like
the Centaur and the Griffon.
The creation of these fantasy beings denies in itself the very
existence of species as we define
the term today.

This year´s conference looks closer on how knowledge from new
research radically can happen to
change human biology and self understanding, and how art practice
both becomes influenced by
this development, as well as being able to influence it.

The conference keynote speaker is researcher and artist ROY ASCOTT
(UK), pioneer within
interactive computer art in the 60´s and later /telematic art/.
Ascott is founder of the /Planetary Collegium/,
he is a professor at /Technoetic Arts /at the University of Plymouth
in addition to several other positions
and appointments.
Ascott is today one of our most innovative theorists regarding our
virtual present and future.

Further at the festival you will among others be able to experience
speakers and exhibitors as
moderator LAURA BELOFF (FIN), NATASHA VITA-MORE (US), MARGARETE
JAHRMANN (AUS), EVA SUTTON (US),
Victoria Vesna (US), MARTA DE MENEZES (P), ERIC SINGER (US), AMY
YOUNGS (US),
PETER FLEMMING (CAN) and GEORGE GESSERT (US).
