Magister Raffaello 2020 - Talk

Magister Art (IT), Jelena Jovanovic (IT)

Anlässlich des 500. Todestages des Renaissance-Künstlers Raphael entstand Magister Raffaello, ein neues Kulturprojekt von Magister Art, den digitalen Pionieren in der Entwicklung, Produktion und Förderung von Inhalten des Kulturerbes. Es verbindet den hohen wissenschaftlichen Wert mit konstantem Experimentieren mit neuen Sprachen und Medien, um eine "erweiterte Erzählung" und eine "totale" kognitive Erfahrung zu erzeugen. Magister Raffaello wird in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Italienischen Kulturinstitut in Wien gezeigt.

Creating a New Normal: Arts, Design, Humanities and Social Sciences 4 Emergency?

Eveline Wandl-Vogt, Nirmala Menon, Dario Rodrighiero, Elian Carsenat

Panel discussion: As this virus, and maybe further to come, affects the world and our way of living, we are aiming to explore pioneering research and action based art and design. During the time of social distancing and quarantining, it has become evident that even with the principles of science and technology that provide us with access to practical methods for securing our lives, humanities-based principles and skillsets have played a key role in enabling us to evolve. In light of this, we might want to rethink our approach to future living.

Harmony

Harmony fosters an inclusive atmosphere among strangers, reframing the concepts around co-creation and collaboration. Co-composing can be intimidating at times, as there is pressure to perform.

Project Home

Team Members: Esma Bosnjakovic, Max Haarich, Barbora Horská, Nicole Schanzmeier

Project Home will diese fast schon utopische Erzählung neu definieren, indem es persönliche Geschichten von Menschen sammelt und teilt, die aus freien Stücken oder aus anderen Gründen mit dem traditionellen Konzept der Heimat kämpften. Dadurch hoffen wir, andere zu inspirieren, einige der einschränkenden Überzeugungen in Frage zu stellen und ihren eigenen einzigartigen Weg „nach Hause“ zu erkennen.

[Un]seen Sacred Spaces

Team Members: Asma Aiad, Parisa Ayati, Rebecca Merlic, Ines Mahmoud, Mateja Rot

Anhand von drei Sakralräumen in Österreich wollen wir ein Beispiel für verschiedene Gemeinschaften setzen und deren Anliegen sichtbar machen. Viele Gebäude, sehen von aussen lediglich wie ein normales Haus aus. Trotz ihrer Unsichtbarkeit sind sie Teil der Stadt. Ihre (Un-)Sichtbarkeit sagt viel über die soziale Integration in unserer Gesellschaft aus.

VirtualPolitik

Neo Christopher Chung

The world is at a critical junction where polarizing forces are working hard to keep us divided and troubled. We are witnessing the rise of exclusionary laws and policies, fueled by the dark side of the Internet and algorithms. Across Europe and beyond, the challenges of civil unrest and human rights are negatively affecting marginalized populations and creating intractable divisions. How can we use public platforms and new media to create inclusive outlooks and to create new political spheres?
