    Between documentation and creation - intermediary approaches to images

    Le document est défini comme une information portée sur un support. Sous forme de mots, de sons, d’images, l’information doit être structurée et intelligible. C’est de cette définition juridique des technologies de l’information (art. 3 de la LCCJTI de 2001), que nous souhaitons partir afin d’interroger les gestes qui sont posés sur les documents visuels aussi bien dans le temps de leur conservation que de leurs usages créatifs. C’est donc moins le documentaire (au sens d’un genre photographique et cinématographique) que nous aborderons, que l’action de travailler aujourd’hui avec des documents.

    Schalten und walten. Towards Operative Ontologies

    IKKM Biennial Conference 2019

    The conference will conclude the IKKM six-year research program on ‘Operative Ontologies’. A term seeming contradictory at first, it assumes that everything that exists is not simply present or given but has been called into being through media and their operations in the most general sense: The ruling (das Walten) of nature as well as the ruling of the social reside under the command of technology, which as increasingly digitized technology is based on switching operations (das Schalten) — e.g. the achievements of bioengineering or the computational models of planet Earth. When embodied operations establish ontological orders and the difference between the ontic and the ontological thus re-enters the ontic, this demands a radical remodeling of ontology. The IKKM Biennial Conference 2019 therefore investigates the given with regard to the procedures through which it has been made possible, produced, set up, brought into the world and called into being — “switched on” — in the first place.
