Creative Disturbance

Steigler and Tron discuss the idea of improbable events, the singular un-calculable event. In our society the singular is being converter into the particular ( algorithms that predict user behavior based on their profiles in a given system have no interest in the individual as a whole). The digital economy depends on predictable, calculable, behaviors of users. Big Data approaches rely on analytic approaches which are incapable of creating truths that depend on intuition built on individual experience- understanding and reason cannot be conflated. This requires 'de-automating' the processes, and creating negentropy by injecting effort through an Art of Hypercontrol. This creates a quasi-causality (Deleuze) by breaking the causal chain. Stiegler speculates on the coming transformation of the economy as extended automatisation eliminates systematically classic employment. The Art of Hypercontrol seeks to establish an ecology of the improbable.

A Podcast with Mohamed H.Youssef, an independent Egyptian artist who experiments with a large diversity of media and different forms of visual and plastic arts: artistic booklets, digital works, paintings… Since 2006, his work has been focusing mainly on digital arts, and particularly on interactive spaces (with, for example, art pieces such as The Table, in search of lost time… and his project Particles). He has exhibited his work in Egypt, Germany, France, Korea. He works as an Art director at the Planetarium center, one of the service centers at the Arab Academy for science, Technology and Martime transport. A member of many arts networks RamiMed, Animanet, creanumerica, Imera and others. Since it's start up, he is a member of RamiMed network, animator in Egypt and responsible of the RamiMed page on Facebook. www.mhyoussef.com

In the Audiolats series "Il était une fois une œuvre / Milestone work", Roger Malina presents the book "Earth Sound Earth Signal: Energies and Earth Magnitude in the Arts" by Douglas Kahn (University of California Press, 2013). Enregistré par Annick Bureaud & Jean-Luc Soret, le 11 septembre 2014, à Paris, jingles et habillage sonore Jean-Yves Leloup, musiques Sergey Lopoukha "Lull", Alexander Zaitsev, Ilya Baramiya "New Numbers" (Universal Production Music Publishing)

Artist and curator Ewen Chardronnet and Art Historian Fabrice Lapelletrie discuss the work of Frank Malina. They mention the importance of the work of Theremin, Wilfred and other artists interested in the connections between sound and images in the 20s and 30s. The role of the cultural imagination as a science driver is developed, as well as how imagination intervenes in scientific discovery with the work of mathematician Cedric Villani for instance. Chardronnet reads from a letter of Frank Malina from 1946 which discusses ideas of deep connections between the arts and sciences and the idea of 'inherent rightness". Lapelletrie discusses the work of experimental psychologist Albert Michotte.

In this section of his interview on "Art-Science : Emergence et ruptures", Roger Malina addresses the topic of innovation versus conservatism in art-science and technology.Enregistré par Annick Bureaud & Jean-Luc Soret, le 11 septembre 2014 à Paris, jingles et habillage sonore Jean-Yves Leloup, musiques Carl Harms, David James Elliott "The Wire", Sergey Lopoukha "Lull" (Universal Production Music Publishing

Frieder Nake and Poe Johnson discuss the ways that algorithms have altered the creation and reception of art from the 1960s to the present.

Although they both involve generative algorithms, randomness and computational processes (among other principles), the art of artificial life is not considered a part of the computer art forms as described by pioneering computer artist Frieder Nake. Yvan Tina sits down with Nake to briefly discuss some of the intertwining issues between the two fields.
