Conceput ca o incursiune in spatiul conturat de lucrarile Eugen Rosca, Poeziile lui Paul Celan, Gherasim Luca și Charles Baudelaire, Timpul lui Bernhard Moestl si Odiseea Cuantica a lui Laurentiu Nita, evenimentul “Redeeming The Time”, a marcat debutul Synapse Your Future Talks (in 22 iunie). O calatorie a cunoasterii prin arta, stiinta, viata!

„Cum explici conceptul timpului unui om surd? Cum ai desena „timpul“? Se poate? Este timp ceva real sau ceva imaginat? Cine ne stapaneste timpul si de ce acceptam ca sunt ceilalti? Care este valoarea timpulului? Daca ai uita in ce an te-ai nascut, ai sti cati ani ai? De ce depinde cat de repede trece timpul? Cand facem ceva plictisitor timpul trece mai incet, asta inseamnand pe de alta parte ca avem senzatia ca am trait mai mult. Ce ti se pare preferabil? De ce este important sa masuram timpul? Exista o eternitate? Daca nu, ce vine dupa?” Bernhard Moestl

"Projectile fragments, archived and conserved, keep the memory of war intact. A cold, long and unstoppable war. An acid, chemical rain on the background abandoned in warm greys, printed in latent remorse. Anxiety was born urban: being and lack of being. The anthropomorphous and zoomorphic mélange, like razor-sharp cuts, slide surgically towards nowhere, on an ice slide with no beginning and no ending. A never-ending loop. What is ahead, the end? Or is there hope in washing away the evil? With how much caustic soda and in how many waters should the washing be made? How do you save yourself?"

SAINT MACHINE | I, Human
A visionary project, a metaphor for our evolution as a species, which may depend on our capacity to empathize.

I, HUMAN is on display at Halucinarium as part of INSATIABLE MACHINES, a SAINT MACHINE solo show curated by Carmen Casiuc. Hopefully you will enjoy this fantastic exhibition after the lock down. Until then, enjoy the movie created by SAINT MACHINE and Black Horse Mansion.

Developed around the idea of interconnectivity, it analyzes how individual interactions can produce collective outcomes at different scales, testing new models of synergistic behaviour mediated by technology and identifying coherence patterns.

A circuit of interconnected masks howling like wolves are asking to be fed with emotions. Once superimposed on the human body, they analyze the emotional state of each user, as well as the emotional cohesion of the group. Each mask offers different soundscapes, inducing antagonistic psychological states. Users need to override their personal context in order to emotionally synchronize. The masks are connected to a biophotonics experiment in the bunker of the Center for Advanced Laser Technologies in Bucharest. The degree of emotional cohesion of the users connected to the installation controls the frequency and intensity with which the laser feeds a euglena population. While functioning as living experimental subjects, the users are also real-time observers of the experiment.
