View this email in your browser N E W S L E T T E R Angelo Vermeulen June 2015 ECOLOGY IN THE GARDEN OF MACHINES Rotterdam Can technology play a role in creating a richer and more robust ecology? Ecological systems don't only include plants and animals, but the entire human and technological sphere as well. Up until now, that technological part of the ecology has often parasitized on the organic part. The question is whether this could change.  (Image by William Latham) Het Nieuwe Instituut in Rotterdam invites Dr. Christian Fleck (synthetic biologist), Karen Verschooren (curator) and Angelo Vermeulen on the 25th of June to present their vision and knowledge on the relationship between technology and ecology. This evening is organized as part of the exhibition Garden of Machines. The exhibition speculates on a new ecosystem in which technical and organic beings can evolve and live together. Practical Date and time: June 25, 20:00-22:00 Language: English Tickets: €3,5 reduction, €7,5 regular, tickets here Location: Het Nieuwe Instituut, Museumpark 25, 3015 CB Rotterdam   BIOMODD WORKSHOPS Karlsruhe, Prishtina, London Biomodd is a collaborative art project challenging presumed notions of opposition between nature and technology in different cultures throughout the world. In July 2015 three Biomodd workshops are taking place in different European countries and very different contexts: Karlsruhe, Prishtina and London. Biomodd [ZKM7] On July 10 Biomodd [ZKM7] will be launched as a preparatory workshop and presentation at ZKM | Center for Art and Media in Karlsruhe, Germany. This first visit is an introduction to the actual Biomodd [ZKM7] project that will take place in November 2015 during the GLOBALE: Exo-Evolution exhibition. We want to kick start a new Biomodd community, and introduce the new collaborators to core Biomodd themes through a hands-on workshop with Angelo Vermeulen.

The video will be shown during the arts festival FLUX in Kortrijk starting on July 4, as part of the programming of Mr. Make-Do. Un mal pour un bien focuses on the aftermath of the avian flu threat in the National Botanical Garden of Belgium during the summer of 2006. Drastic measures were taken to reduce the numbers of geese in the garden: a ban on feeding by visitors was imposed, and part of the geese population was – allegedly – gassed and eradicated. The film follows a small community of regular visitors who are strongly attached to the animals and are appalled by the events. Throughout the film they fiercely debate the relationship between man and the natural world, intolerance and aggression. They divulge alternative scenarios to handle the problems and contrive their own ecological analyses. Practical Opening weekend: July 4-5 Exhibition: July 4 - September 27, 2015 Tue-Fri: 14:00-18:00 Sat-Sun: 11:00-18:00 Location: Broeltoren Noord, Broelkaai 7, 8500 Kortrijk Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn You are receiving this email because Angelo Vermeulen has you on his contact list Our mailing address is: SEAD (Space Ecologies Art and Design) Leopold II-laan 31 Sint-Niklaas 9100 Belgium Add us to your address book unsubscribe from this list    update subscription preferences
