Cíle předmětu
Documents of Presence and Experience is a series of lectures accompanied by audiovisual projections. Art films, videos, documentaries, and excerpts from lectures by international artists and collectives from the early 20th century to the present are shown throughout the course, illustrating theoretical deliberations on given themes and artistic practices and movements. Art and artist databases, institutional resources, alternative communities, and artists' texts are also showcased within the sessions. Conceptual deliberations are important for the discernment and interpretation of the work. The course's primary objective is to acquaint the student with the history of art and technology primarily as it relates to students' fields of research.

Osnova
  • Key Themes: Processing Tools, Public Access, On-line Syndicates, GNU, Hacking, Blockchain, Fair Use Technological developments have always been accompanied by artistic movements that explore the aesthetic potential, test their social repercussions, and examine the philosophical questions they raise. The creation of technological tools and platforms mark radical shifts in the way we communicate and move in the world. New models for the presentation, distribution, and publication of content reveal new ways of looking at our fundamental existence while challenging us to harness and control the power of a new paradigm. Delving into the nature of the medium itself is characteristic for work within the field of art and technology. The artist is thrust into the role of bold visionary and dreamer. A close relationship is established between artist and engineers, programmer, or developer; roles that coalesce into a exploratory unit that push the boundaries of perception and possibility and often times legislation.

Výukové metody
The presentations are divided into semester-long blocks which deal with individual themes related to perfomativity as a phenomenon. Key concepts such as experience, contemporaneity, avant garde, ritual, play, indeterminacy, social engagement, participation, and improvisation are explored, relying heavily on artistic texts and theoretical works. Lectures are accompanied by audiovisual material. The classes are based on presentation and class discussions. Students will asked to participate actively in discussions based on reading assignments.
Metody hodnocení
Final evaluation will be based on presentation of a project or theme of the student's choice accompanied by a theoretical text (comparative study, curatorial project (approx. 5 n/s)) based on the given theme of the semester as it relates to their field of interest and research. Semester projects will be assessed based on relevance of theme and quality of research and delivery (presentation, text). Although there is not an attendance requirement, active participation in class is recommended in order to maintain project relevance.
