Ecology and Glitch

Glitch Ecologies


unbecoming glitch:  glitch is about working outside of its own categories, generalizing itself - not becoming, but unbecoming;  moreover it can be unsightly, not simply in the sometimes true "transgressive" manner, which is a conceptual possibility that always stands as an ideal pillar of the movement, but for its folk-oriented dissemination - the complaint of the glitch hater is not solely its ugliness but the continual unenjoyable variations and repetitions it encourages - glitch art is ugly and its boring - or for the fan, it is unconcerned with adorned aesthetics (or interested in exploring unadorned ones) and it is interested in community art, socially-driven art and creating new dialogues within these spaces about given social issues.


postscripts:


ecology and glitch;

failure of the environment;

failure of bodies;



Sask artist - taking the parameters of live video - performed video - video fed through audience interaction and out through content;
like a social media performance - adjusting based on the audience;


the personal performance;


shawne - lowfi, distorted, feminist/racial, embodied in a radical sense;

cates - ultra-lowfi, humanist, unapologetically embodied (radically in its general acceptance) - concept, politics, subtle humour
- as a curator, minimalism meets glitch meets
- as an academic: creative/digital language, poetic approach, participatory approach


glitch as a social cause - the inception of folk lit;  the inception of environmental literature;  the inception of embodied literature (or art)


soil media - sulllied technology and earth technology - technology on the earth, of the earth and having to re-relate itself to the earth

Radical Science and New Ways to Think About Knowledge

By
In a world that is rapidly changing—where new technologies, environmental crises, and societal challenges continuously shape our future—how we think about science, knowledge, and creativity must evolve. Enter radical science : a groundbreaking approach that blends scientific inquiry, artistic expression, and technological innovation to solve global problems in bold, interdisciplinary ways. But what exactly is radical science, and how does it differ from traditional science? This article explores the concept of radical science and why it’s becoming a crucial framework for understanding the complexities of our modern world. What is Radical Science At its core, radical science represents a departure from traditional scientific methods that typically segregate art, technology, and science into separate spheres. Radical science integrates these disciplines, encouraging collaboration between scientists, artists, engineers, and philosophers. It challenges the conventional belief that scientif...

Understanding the Role of Abstraction in Scientific Inquiry

By
Introduction Abstraction plays a critical role in scientific inquiry, helping scientists to model complex natural systems in a way that simplifies reality while still capturing essential features. In the context of scientific representations, abstraction refers to the process of distilling complex phenomena into more manageable forms, often using models, symbols, and mathematical expressions. These simplified representations allow scientists to focus on key aspects of a system, predict behaviors, and conduct experiments in a controlled, conceptual space. In this article, we explore how abstraction in scientific models enables a deeper understanding of the natural world and how it has evolved alongside scientific discovery. What is Abstraction in Science? Abstraction in science refers to the act of reducing the complexity of real-world systems to focus on specific aspects of interest. This reduction simplifies complex phenomena, making it easier to understand, manipulate, and predict th...

Bridging the Gap: How Art Can Help Us Understand Science

By
  Science can be intimidating. Whether it’s the abstract equations of physics or the complex biological processes that govern life, many scientific concepts can feel distant and inaccessible to the public. But what if there was a way to make these ideas more tangible, relatable, and easier to understand? What if art could bridge the gap between complex science and the general public? In recent years, the integration of art and science has proven to be a powerful tool for not just communicating scientific ideas, but for expanding the ways in which we think about and engage with the world. In this article, we explore how art plays a vital role in making science more accessible, engaging, and emotionally resonant. Through creative coding, digital art, and speculative design, art provides a new lens through which we can explore the wonders of the natural world and the mysteries of the universe. Art as a Visualization Tool for Science One of the primary ways that art helps us understand...
