SUMMARY:a’21: techno utopia x post-digital ignorance___10 March - 18 May\, 2021
DESCRIPTION:► a’21: techno utopia x post-digital ignorance \n► 10 MARCH - 18 MAY\, 2021 \n:: EXHIBITIONS :: PERFORMANCES :: TALKS\, WORKSHOPS & LECTURES :: & MORE :: ABOUT a’21 FESTIVAL :: \nThe past few decades have witnessed a tremendous proliferation of digital technology. References to a techno-utopia where knowledge would be available to each and all seemed to signal the possibility of positive social and cultural change while acknowledging a fundamental flaw. Digital technologies’ commitment to making knowledge accessible to all would supposedly produce a universal benefit and wellbeing which was partly realised but digital technologies did in no way result in a techno-utopia. It has become apparent that besides letting vast amounts of knowledge accessible to ever more people\, digital technologies are also powerful tools producing a peculiar kind of public ignorance\, one that seems to proliferate amidst ever multiplying information and knowledge available in today’s digitalised environment. With a’21 Festival - Post Digital Ignorance x Techno Utopia\, we aim to challenge the status quo while centring perspectives on non-human life\, queer ecology\, decolonising knowledge\, forced displacement\, and more. :: 69+ artists\, scientists and activists in 16 countries #SWANA #AFRICA #EUROPE #ASIA \n:: 13 extraordinary creatives radically collaborating within an intensive laboratory :: \nHosting hosting more than 50 events: incl. performances\, workshops\, panels\, sounds\, lectures\, exhibitions and screenings \n:: PROGRAMME 2021 ::  \nw/ amberPlatform (Turkey)\, 16 March - 18 April w/ Kounaktif (Morocco)\, 17 - 21 March w/ Sharhaban (Lebanon)\, 22 - 25 March w/ BAAB Collective (Sudan) 1 April - 15 May w/ Darağaç (Turkey)\, 2 April - 26 March w/ DAHproject (Iran)\, 3 April - 7 May  \n#NewMedia #QueerEcology #ForcedDisplacement #FutureDesign \n// Produced by: Oyoun in collaboration with amberPlatform \n// Curatorial Team: Amirali Ghasemi\, Ali Cem Doğan\, Cenkhan Aksoy\, Christoph Wachter\, Ebru Yetişkin\, Ekmel Ertan\, Hamza Chamas\, Mathias Jud\, Milad Forouzandeh\, Mohsen Hazrat\, Nina Martin\, Rajaa Shamam\, Youssef El Idrissi \n// Participants include: Eda Sütunç\, Danielle Brathwaite-Shirley\, Mary Maggic\, Rachel Uwa\, Renata Salecl\, Seloua Luste Boulbina\, Pelin Tan\, Yara Mekawei\, and many more. \n// Funded by: Capital Cultural Fund/ Berlin's Hauptstadtkulturfond

SUMMARY:a'21: Ignorant Fairies: New Materialist Queer-Feminist Political Ecological Approaches_amberPlatform
DESCRIPTION:►a'21: Ignorant Fairies: New Materialist Queer-Feminist Political Ecological Approaches_amberPlatform \nIn this workshop\, we will be studying selected new materialist texts and works of art regarding non-human life\, nature and matter in this digital era which also intersects with Anthropocene discussion starting from the beginning of 2000s to better confront the growing 'uncertainty' 'unintelligibility' of non human agency. It will also include an artistic-practical part where the participants will be instructed to practice Natasha Myer's Sensing Botanical Sensoria: A Kriya For Cultivating Your Inner Plant. \n:: ABOUT THIS EVENT (EN/TR) ::\nIn this workshop\, we will be studying selected new materialist texts and works of art regarding non-human life\, nature and matter in this digital era which also intersects with Anthropocene discussion starting from the beginning of 2000s to better confront the growing 'uncertainty' 'unintelligibility' of non human agency. Plant studies of Natasha Myer\, the conception of nature in Staicy Alaimo's queer ecology and nature-culture entanglement in the bio-art works of Marta de Menezes will be discussed within the scope of the larger new materialist\, post-human queer-feminist theoretical contributions. The workshop will include a theoretical part to discuss the place of Nature\, Matter and Body in Queer theory with a special emphasis on new materialist critics of Judith Butler's conception of body and performativity. Queer feminist theorists like Stacy Alaimo provide us with valuable tools to reconsider our conception of nature\, body and matter in the post-digital world we live in which is gradually more construed around the tendency of dematerialisation. Yet\, recent discussions on Anthropocene and the growing interest towards developing a political ecology to cope with ramped up uncertainties of a world afflicted with climate change\, and unforeseen viral activities point towards the requirement to re-materialise our ties with the earth. The theoretical part of the workshop will thus give us a chance to reconsider what nature\, matter and body signify in in the post-digital world with a special emphasis on Natasha Myer's ""becoming sensor"" project\, Stacy Alaimo's queer ecologies and Marta de Menezes' bioart. It will also include an artistic-practical part where the participants will be instructed to practice Natasha Myer's Sensing Botanical Sensoria: A Kriya For Cultivating Your Inner Plant. \n► The event link will be shared a few days before the event.
