> RENEWABLE FUTURES 2015:
> Transformative Potential of Art in the Age of Post-Media
> 
> The 1st edition of new academic art and science conference series in  
> the Baltic Sea region
> 
> October 8-10, 2015, Riga
> 
> 
> The Renewable Futures is a new conference series in the Baltic Sea  
> region that aims to invent new avenues for more sustainable and  
> imaginative future developments. It will shape new contact zones  
> between traditionally separated domains – art and science, academic  
> research and independent creative practices, sustainable businesses  
> and social engagement in the 21st century.
> 
> The 1st conference edition will take place in Riga, from October 8-10,  
> 2015, and it will primarily focus on exploring the transformative  
> potential of art in the post-media conditions. Today, according to  
> several voices – Rosalind Krauss, Lev Manovich, Peter Weibel and  
> Domenico Quaranta – we have entered the post-media age; there is no  
> any single medium anymore that dominates in contemporary media art  
> practices that are rather engaged with contemporaneity and critical  
> thinking. The huge diversity of “post-media art” was profoundly  
> explored also in the Fields exhibition  (Riga 2014, fields.rixc.org),  
> curated by Raitis Smits, Armin Medosch and Rasa Smite. The Fields  
> showed that art in post-media conditions contains highly  
> transformative and visionary potential. However, symbolic and  
> aesthetic qualities, as well as critical, investigative and  
> confrontational aspects also proved to be just as important for  
> “post-media art” to maintain a line between physical and mental,  
> realities and utopias.
> 
> CALL for Conference Proposals:
> We welcome proposals by artists, curators, theorists, academic  
> researchers and other lateral thinkers to share their ideas and  
> research with regards to the following themes:
> 
> * post-media art - avantgarde practices and theories
> * slow media art, preservation challenges for the museums
> * art and science, building techno-ecological perspective
> * technopolitical investigations into the informational paradigm
> * big data and “media visualizations”
> * culture for sustainable development in the Baltic Sea region
> 
> Call for Exhibition Artworks:
> The conference will be complemented by Art+Communication 2015 festival  
> exhibition that will also contribute in building post-media  
> perspective. We invite artists to propose their works that by blurring  
> the boundaries between different disciplines are developing visions  
> for more sustainable and imaginative ways of life.
> 
> DEADLINE: March 20, 2015
> 
> Please submit your conference proposal (abstract 250 words, biography  
> 200 words) and/or proposal for artwork (description of idea, images,

> Almaty where the main urban transformations occurred recently. The workshop
> participants will collect data and will provide comprehensive analyses
> concerning the causes, main actors as well the consequences of urban
> changes and impact on the society standards. By this research platform we
> wish to examine the structural determinants of public space and how it

> Mobile Workshop tutor:

> In the capacity of workshop tutor Vladimir Us will share his knowledge and

> conjunction with a range of projects organized by the Oberliht Association
> in the past seven years, highlighting a number of artistic interventions
> which took place outside of traditional cultural institutions (the projects
> INTERVENTIONS, CHIOSK, the Civic Centre of Chisinau). These projects drew
> together artists, architects, sociologists, activists and other
> participants expressing interest in the transformations undergone by the
> public space in Chisinau, the goal being that of creating, through such
> cultural interventions, a truly public space.
> 
> This efforts became possible via self-education and self-organization as
> well as through the development of a new cultural and digital
> infrastructure which is better suited to the needs of independent cultural
> entities in Moldavia, offering an alternative to the institutional
> environment and proposing new ways of engaging with the public.
