FROM THE SPECTRUM OF LIGHT TO THE GHOSTS OF THE SHADOW

During the 3 week programme we install configure and maintain a technopolitical public performative interface to empower, commonize and decolonize our (self)technologies and the electromagnetic spectrum. We get to know our  “behind-the-scenes” self-technologies and introduce digital solidarity networks.  Read it as developing feminist perspectives on the current data societies and regimes we are living in. By exploring antenna’s, virtual machines, hardware, servers, circuit boards, minerals, magnetic fields, we become intimate with their performativity. Entangled, wet and in tune, we question how we want to approach techno-politics within our artistic practice.

From the spectrum of light to the ghosts of the shadow 

A 3-day laboratory where we will explore DIY sensitive electronic devices as a scenic resource. Together we will make a speculative journey exploring the electromagnetic spectrum from visible light, shadows darkness and its phantom energies by creating a travelogue and developing DIY circuits based on light sensors, sound synthesizers and experimental antennas. These devices will amplify, receive and emit frequencies to and from our scenic environment allowing us to explore the invisible and inaudible landscape surrounding us during a performance and on a daily basis.
