Poetic Systems

Panel Discussion

The panel discussion Poetic Systems looks at system-theoretical approaches at the nexus of art and architecture. Where can system theory, a sociological concept, be applied outside of its original discipline? Which dimensions are opened up by artistic research, an artistic viewpoint or Art Thinking in combination with system theory - and which new points of intersection emerge? Speakers with backgrounds in sociology, architecture, art and scientific research gather here to share their insights on this topic.

Strings

Ruini Shi (CN)

Strings is a poetic animation in the style of early computer games. In this setting the main character is in search of his lost love in an obsolete online game. The film tells a story about mediated intimacy by depicting a range of virtualized spaces or realms in a game, aiming to open up new ways of thinking about digitally mediated relationships.
