Venue: Medialab-Prado · Plaza de las Letras, C/ Alameda, 15 Madrid (Spain) difusion (at) medialab-prado.es http://medialab-prado.es/article/electrosmog_festival
Join us at the ElectroSmog festival! From March 18 through 20 this event will propose a critique of the worldwide explosion of mobility, and an exploration of the new forms of connectedness with others offered to us by network and communication technologies. The program includes international debates and discussions, performances and art projects that will be streamed live through the Festival's website http://www.electrosmogfestival.net/. The public will be able to participate *locally from Medialab-Prado* or *on-line through the web interface*, that allows to post comments and vote.
Medialab-Prado participates in this international event with the following activities [live streaming from Medialab-Prado's website]:
*4 pm - 6 pm: Debate about Hyper-Mobility (+ presentation of /In the Air/ project)*
Hyper-mobility poses a myriad of challenges for urban planners: How
is urban planning responding to conditions of hyper-mobility? Are
networking technologies playing a role in policies and actions? +
Presentation of "In the Air" project, collaboratively developed
during Visualizar'08 and Visualizar'09 workshops in Medialab-Prado.
Presented by Nerea Calvillo, author.
*6 pm - 8 pm: Riverrun: A collective and experimental online artwork workshop* (previous registration at medialab-prado's website)
Riverrun could be described as an emergent Exquisite Corpse.
Creators collaborate in the making of a collective story in real
time. Each person participates, using their own computer (client),
by writing a small part of a collective story. A session of at least
four parallel experiments: two in English and two in Spanish. These
collective writing experiments will involve both local and online
participation. Developed by artist Kevin McCourt and theoretical
physicist Bartolo Luque.
*9 pm - 11 pm: Debate about City and Country Branding
City and regional branding strategies contribute disproportionally to increased travel and mobility, both for touristic purposes as well as for professional travel and conference-mania. But from an ecological point of view, however, the branding strategy is highly questionable. Are cities and regions economically viable at all without effective branding and promotion strategies?
Participants in Medialab-Prado: Ana Méndez, moderator, Isidro López (Observatorio Metropolitano) and Eva Ramos López (Town Planning and Housing Area, Madrid City Council)
