The Multidisciplinary Grid 2020 Conference

The conference is aimed at examining the ‘grid’ as a cross-disciplinary theme with a multiplicity of expressions in terms of definitions, concepts, perceptions, representations, and histories. The ‘grid’ has played a significant role in shaping the spatial imaginaries of a wide range of fields: from Hippodamus of Miletus to the Cartesian revolution in mathematics, from the visual arts to archaeology to 'smart cities' and artificial intelligence. As the 'grid' has become an all-encompassing term, signifying a vast array of infrastructural and communication networks through which contemporary life is mediated and controlled, it is commonly viewed as a quintessential symbol of modernity. The conference strives to explore a new horizon of relationships and fusion of the ‘grids’ in these areas as manifested between humans, between machines, and between humans and machines ‒ bridging philosophical, cultural, pedagogical, technical and ethical issues.

The history of art and the challenge of the digital

Comme bien des disciplines des sciences humaines, l’histoire de l’art se tient encore relativement à l’écart du numérique, et en particulier de la science ouverte. Le mouvement de libération des collections patrimoniales va cependant croissant et la place centrale des images dans la pratique des historiens d’art induit en tout état de cause l’acquisition et le traitement de données visuelles, nombreuses ou pas, numériquement natives ou pas, selon des formes de mise en ordre plus ou moins raisonnées et informées des possibilités, comme des contraintes, du numérique.

Broadcasting health and disease

Bodies, markets and television, 1950s-1980s

In the television age, health and the body have been broadcasted in many ways: in short health education films, school television, professional training materials, TV ads, documentaries, reality TV shows and news, as well as stand-alone videos distributed to specific audiences. This three-day conference proposes an exploration of how television formats have influenced and staged bodies, health and healthy practices from local, regional, national and international perspectives, and how these TV programmes spread the conviction that viewers could and should invest in their health and shape their own body.

RE: TRACE - the 7^th International conference on the histories of media art, science and technology will be hosted by the department for image science and held at Danube University Krems, Göttweig Abbey and the Austrian Academy of Sciences, Vienna. More than a decade after the first conference founded the field now recognized worldwide as a significant historical inquiry at the intersection of art, science, and technology, media art histories is now firmly established as a dynamic area of study guided by changing media and research priorities, drawing a growing community of scholars, artists and artist-researchers.

Seeing, knowledge and showing - practices, instruments and materialities of the visualisation of the body

Pratiques, instruments, et matérialités de la visualisation de corps

Dans le cadre des travaux du groupe de travail « Corps, techniques et société » (CETCOPRA/AFS) sur les territoires corporels des techniques, la journée d’étude « Voir, savoir, donner à voir » propose de poursuivre les réflexions du groupe, ayant donné lieu à une série de rencontres autour de l’imagerie médicale et moléculaire. Nous y reprendrons notre problématique initiale en trois questions : la question de la production des images ; la question de la construction d’un regard ; et la question du diagnostic.
