WORLD is an ongoing collection of videos and audio clips captured with a cell phone camera and microphone. These clips are presented in an interactive and random way to the user on the computer screen using Flash. The program allows the usage of XML to retrieve and load dynamically the files required, separating the visual and the audio component so that the image and the sound can never be viewed at the same time. The user needs to rollover and click on the movies to change their content and appearance. The concept of synchronization and the possible mental associations happen in the user's mind. This de-contextualized group of memory loops, becomes a chaotic narration of the author's life and experiences in the World, presenting images and sounds from Istanbul, Paris, Boston, Bogota and Tampa, among other places.

    Art & Climate Change


    Art & climat


    This project is part of the broader "Cultural Roots of Globlalization" project as climate and meteorology are per se planetary phenomena. Nowadays, many contemporary artists have raised the climate issue. It is possible to speak about an emergent trend within the art scene. Artistic approaches are multiple, going from music to installations, through films and photographies.

    Within this project we would like to give a certain visibility to this trend and analyze artistic approaches and perceptions of climate and climate change. We live in a close relationship with climate phenomena but our intimate "weather report" is not always particulary developed. For example, the official weather report at television is of a rather "visual" nature. Therefore, it is possible to state that our meteorological sensitivity is still very rudimentary. Generally speaking, in our western societies the human being seems still to be interested in the weather we have rather than the weather we make. But at the same time contemporary artists and philosophers discover themselves as "pupils of the air" (Herder) and certain western societies begin to integrate the era of renewable energies.

    Therefore, the project intends to discuss our experience and sensitivity of climate by developing common cross-questionings and by organizing encounters between artists, writers, philosophers, scientists, engineers.

    NZ: Wild Creations Artists in Residence programme

    The Department of Conservation and Creative New Zealand
    launched the Wild Creations Artists in Residence programme in 2002-07.
    The programme provides New Zealand artists with an outstanding opportunity to experience the people, stories and challenges associated with our country’s unique natural and historic heritage.

    Louise Potiki Bryant
    Louise Potiki Bryant, a choreographer and video artist based in Piha and of Ngai Tahu descent, will spend six weeks at Mt Cook / Aoraki.
    She plans to develop a work integrating dance, video and sculpture which will go on to be performed live as a solo dance work.
    She would also like to produce a short dance film from footage shot of this work as it is performed at Aoraki.

    Naomi Lamb
    Inspired by the Nikau coast and the Heaphy track after first walking it in 2000, Christchurch based new media artist Naomi Lamb will head for Karamea in April with the intention of capturing the essence of the spectacular landscapes and coastal bush in the region and exploring the unique cultural heritage of travel by foot for taonga, food, exploration, trade, settlement and now leisure. She will extend her skills in video to create a immersive sensory video installation.

    Alison Isadora
    Audio artist and composer Alison Isadora, formerly of Wellington but now based in the Netherlands, intends to spend time in Bannockburn, Central Otago collecting sound material to produce a collection of songs. She will also collect images of the river and create an interactive performance piece or installation.
    Zoe Roland

    Zoe Roland's
    Christchurch film-maker Zoe Roland's residency commenced in June 2003. Zoe stayed at Tiritiri Matangi Island in the Hauraki Gulf to record a video about the island’s flora and fauna. She is an experimental documentary film-maker and her work deals with themes of memory, preservation, storytelling and experiences of the New Zealand landscape.
