Remix of identity is a workshop about remixing traditional music which was held form 17th to 22 of October 2016 in Cultural center Rojc in Pula, Croatia. The result is a music album that contains the remixes produced by the participants and their mentors. While remixing traditional music of ethnic minorities from the urban environment with contemporary urban music, the project explores the possibilities of intercultural communication through music. The program of the workshop included lessons, discussions and practical group work. Traditional music from Istria (discant singing), Montenegro (choir chants) and Bosnia (sevdah) was introduced to a variety of contemporary electronic music styles. The music that was used for remixing was performed by the Association of Montenegrins from Peroj “Peroj 1657”, Alisa Čeliković (a sevdah singer from Labin) and the CD “Šišanska mantinjada – Mantignade sissanezi” (Italian Community of Šišan, 2015). The participants of the workshop worked independently and in groups, with help from their mentors – professional producers and musicians (Nenad Kovačić, Goran Farkaš, Marino Morosin) to create new arrangements in a digital environment and record various traditional instruments (istrian bagpipes, macedonian kaval, mediterranean tambura, djembe, kanjira, kalabash and many others) The remixes are released as a compilation album “Remix of identity 3” by association Metamedia. THANS to all the participants, association TradinEtno, Association of Montenegrins from Peroj “Peroj 1657”, Alisa Čeliković, Barbara Brussich,Italian Community of Šišan, Ana Debeljuh, Bruno Legović, studio Metamusic, studio Partyzan, Goran Farkaš, Marino Morosin, Nenad Kovačić. ORGANIZATION Metamedia + TradinEtno]]> Last week in Lisbon an international meeting of the partners in the Summer Sessions network took place. Members of Metamedia Association, Marino Jurcan and Marko Kalčić joined the meeting together with other representatives from the partner organizations (Boris Debackere and Jan Misker – V2 – Lab for the Unstable Media – the Netherlands, Sara Orsi – Arquivo 237 – Portugal, Zane Cerpina, PNEK – Norway). During the meeting (10th of December), we discussed the possible trajectories for the future development of the artist residencies and the possibilities for project applications. The Summer Sessions are short-term, international residencies for emerging artists that are organized by a network of cultural organizations all over the world. During the program artists work in a highly productive atmosphere in which continuous support, feedback and expert supervision is offered. The result is a pressure cooker in which they develop a project from concept to presentable work. In 2016, Metamedia sponsored video artist Vida Guzmić from Zagreb to work for several weeks in Rotterdam, and hosted an interdisciplinary artist from The Hague, Philip Vermeulen. Additional information about the Summer Sessions: www.summersessions.net Summer Sessions are short term artist residencies that take place over the summer months. These residencies aim to jumpstart the professional practice of early career artists by offering a highly productive atmosphere of expert feedback, production support and resources, as well as interaction with other international participants. The result is a ‘pressure cooker’ in which artists develop an art project from concept to presentable work, ready to show at an international public event. By applying to the Summer Sessions, Vida Guzmić won the support of Metamedia to attend a residency programme in V2 – instutute for unstable media in Rotterdam where she will lived for several weeks and worked on an video art installation. Representation is always a reflection of reality. By choosing and focusing on a certain part of a process, we interpret one of endless possible meanings. Giving meaning to a fragment means constructing a concept that is a mirror image of an imaginary world. In a note on slippage Vida Guzmić explores the space in between given meaning and presentation. The gap between those two – the imaginary world and the way it’s presented – is used as a frame that is composed as a collision of different visual impacts. Facing images are giving different meanings and forms, questioning spaces between public and private, between dominant and unimportant gaze. This project is produced as part of the Summer Sessions Network for Talent Development in a co-production of Metamedia Association and V2_ Lab for the Unstable Media. Philip Vermeulen is a young upcoming artist from The Hague, student at the infamous ArtScience Interfaculty (Royal Conservatory & The Royal Academy of the Arts, The Hague, Netherlands). He discovers primary phenomena in all kinds of different media, sound, light, physics, and nature. He starts playing and fighting with them, to isolate the things he sees and tries to tame and compose with them. He builds setups and immersive installations of provoking experiences, which questions the senses of the viewer by transporting them in another world. Thanks to the support of the V2_Institute for the Unstable Media (Rotterdam, NL) & Metamedia Association (Pula, Croatia), Philip is currently living and working in Pula. There, he is building ‘The physical rhythm machine’ in the workspaces of Metamedia and Sonitus. The installation is a closed system that shoots balls up to 130 kilometers per hour to create sound patterns in bitter violence. The installation cannot only be seen as an instrument, which Mr. Vermeulen can play live, as well as an autonomous system, which creates rhythms with the help of algorithms. It breathes the flavours of rough mechanics and the early experiments of the classical minimal movement. This project is produced as part of the Summer Sessions Network for Talent Development in a co-production of Metamedia Association and V2_Institute for the Unstable Media.

Oleg Morović (Pula, 1987) is one of the new and very important creative – artistic innovators of Pula. Since he attended the High School of Art and Design in Pula it is logical that he works as a designer, where his lucid graphics solutions already received due attention of the professional and non-professional public. He works closely with Oleg Šuran and the duo reigns sovereign in the new formative reality. In collaboration with Andi Pekica they issue the magazine Polet. Since Oleg is versatile he won’t bother the public with his design during the Media Mediterranea festival, but with a work called (the name is important) #MM18. It is a direct transmission (as on television) of content with direct uploads to an online platform (instagram), and it can be uploaded (see the title of the work) with the hashtag / label “#MM18”. This way those present will see in real time what happens with the back of their heads, their backs and who kisses their girlfriends behind the corner. Whether this technology is good or bad will be evaluated by You and Your girlfriend when you return home, and possibly sooner. (Mladen Lučić)]]> The Media Mediterranea 18 festival will be held on the 19 th and 20 th of August, from 6PM to midnight, in Tito’s Park in Pula. The theme of the festival is “Post-it!” and the program includes new media interactive installations and games, multimedia playgrounds for children, workshops for children (Children and architecture; pArcadia, Sound factory), post-electronic music performances and a picnic soundtrack. Author: Francisco Queiros Videos: cosmic death. no picture is silent. powah. le serpent qui dance. Cosmic Death is very representative of the work of the artist Francisco Queiros, bringing together many of his interests: drawing, music (punk) and poetry. In the video there are several layers of stories, in images, silent or written. There are four stories that inter-connect: cosmic death. no picture is silent. powah. le serpent qui dance. Fictions that cross reality: of birds, of a homeless, of an egg or from pre-historical stones. It’s like a compendium of humanity in a short limit of time where we deal with fun, death and the afterglow. «No picture is silent» is a statement itself for this year’s «Post it!» festival. Author: Gereon Krebber Construction kit Gereon Krebber is a sculptor with a very experimental practice, experimental in materials and forms and in the size frames of sculptures but also very interested in sharing his experience as a practitioner in contemporary art. This construction kits are an instrument for doing your own sculpture of Gereon Krebber by yourself, the sculptor provided the instructions kit but the result depends on your own ability to do it and construct it, then you can take your sculpture with you and hang it on the wall : In the artist’s own words: «I have invented those A4-based DIY-kits actually for my website. Not entirely satisfied with just having things to show on the web staying virtual, it is getting it real again with the simplest means from a paper sheet. And it is you making it yourself. It is not only kind of pre-3D-printing – the first one titled “box with tails” is about 2004, as far as I remember. It is Krebber it yourself, hopefully playful and free to everyone.» This work in the Media Mediterranea festival is a collaborative project between the artist and the public in Pula, dealing with minimalist sculpture and authorship in art. Author: Ceal Floyer Sound installation For 0-10, Ceal Floyer modifies the historical recording of the launch of the Apollo 11 space rocket. Contrary to the wonderful discovery of Fritz Lang in 1929, who invented the principle of the countdown to add to the suspense of the film Woman in the Moon, the artist decides to reverse the countdown from 0-10. This very small change, which is representative of her artistic approach in general, unsettles the listeners who are surprised by the slightly modified recording. Playing on a shared aural knowledge of the event, Ceal Floyer introduces a certain element of strangeness; she deals out the cards of history in her own way, thereby creating a second narrative that challenges our perception of time. Author: Ignacio Uriarte Audio installation 1_2_3_4_3_2_1 is a counting numbers piece, where the reader counts from one to ten, filling time with several intonations, in an almost rhythmic way. In this Post it! context his piece is connected to Ceal Floyer piece “0-10” that inverses the countdown from Apolo 11’s launch. Here the monotony of counting numbers expresses the passing of time during «office work». Author: Ignacio Uriarte Audio installation Recording of the twelve main letters of a German typewriter (ASDFGHJKLÖ) read in a prayer-like mumble by Blixa Bargeld, the front man for the indie rock band, Einstürzende Neubauten. The vocal recitation of fricative letterhammering grants the obsolete typing machine a prominent place within an era of technological innovation. Shown together, Uriarte’s optically mesmeric compositions and audio works present the prescient dialogue between sound and image. Author: Anselmo Tumpić Interactive artwork The result of this interactive work of art or the appearance of traces on paper after the intervention is completely unpredictable. The players won’t be focused on the traces that their “toy” makes but on the game and its given rules, and the traces that the toys make will be our final product. By changing the rules of “the game” we’ll change the final appearance of the canvas. In a wider context, by changing the rules that govern societies we change the final result of the rules that affect our lives. These rules leave traces in our lives. Author: Dragana Sapanjoš, udruga Mokar prst Osb, neon In the work Fssssssssss the association Mokar prst (Wet finger) analyzed part of the nonverbal communication that has entered our everyday lives with the appearance of SMS, chat, email … A textual sign that in us, merely by watching, reads out the feeling of our interlocutors. Authors: Vedran Gligo, Ana Jurčić, Dina Karadžić, Josipa Komljenović, Karlo Marković, Sara Salamon, Betty Stojnić; Workshop leaders: Vedran Gligo, Dina Karadžić (hacklab01.org / FormatC.hr); Production support: Filmaktiv Video installation – the results of the Glitch workshop Glitch [expo] presents a series of exercises, experiments and deliberate mistakes made during the “Glitch” workshop, held as part of the programme Applied video (Filmaktiv), which was led by Vedran Gligo (hacklab01) and Dina Karadži (Format C). The basic premise of the glitch as a re-interpretational artistic activity on the border of art, computer culture and the remix culture is to make the narrative unpredictable and the medium visible, and expand the classic paradigm of contemporary art creation in new forms of inclusive disciplinary collaborative activity based on open source software, free culture and knowledge transfer and address the importance of the experimental process of artistic research, with the aim of creating a new vocabulary of a culture which grows responsibly and constructively along with advances in digital technology.

(Mladen Lučić) Authors: Visiualia group Interactive installation This fun installation is made by three light musical benches that contain the sounds of different instruments. By simply striking its surface the bench creates sounds and the visitor can thus create a melody. In addition, by connecting via Bluetooth to the bench, the visitor can play their favourite song and enjoy in it. It’s up to you to come and check how skilled you are in playing on them! Authors: participants in the competition of original GIF animations; Contest author: Dario Dević; Production: Metamedij Video installation consisting of 15 GIF animations Before / After is an intallation made of the best fifteen works submitted to the contest for original GIF animations. These are works of art that through the medium of short web animation deal with the current changes in society, art, culture, humanity or in the authors themselves. The GIF file format relies on the Internet post. The growing popularity of social media made the Internet post a building block of the new Internet. According to Richard Dawkins, an idea (or an Internet post) has the selfish desire to expand and reach a large number of people, as fast as possible. Because of it’s virtue of being a meme, it will significantly change the way we look at art in the digital era. Postmodernist concept of a musical culinary program that will allow the sounds of “modern classic” duo Ansamble da camera and a DJ program that combines ambient and electronic lounge music and organic foods SEK (solidarity and ecological kitchen) and transforms the stay in the park in an unusual experience. Branko Škara and Anamarija Škara The ensemble has been active for many years in various chamber ensembles and performs a repertoire of old masters, baroque sonatas, classical and romantic works, to contemporary compositions and jazz, and organic electronic music. Anamarija Škara (flute) and Branko Škara (clarinet) will present an appropriate program during the Media Mediterranea 18 festival. Marino Jurcan Behind this pseudonym hides DJ Marino who will prepare for this festival a DJ set that is a combination of incompatibles; ambient silence and dynamic electronic rhythms, analogue romance and digital realism. Tea Janko Bevandić, Andreja Buić Created as a natural extension of the SEG group and SET marketplace. The duo in the kitchen, Tea Janko Bevandić and Andreja Buić, are two kitchen lovers and everything that surrounds it. In the preparation of meals they use only seasonal, local and ecologically grown food combining tradition with modern culinary trends. They love to present their food by themselves and are always ready for action, and if you want the traditional Istrian panada, tomato salsa or pasta with carob, cucumber jelly or maybe watermelon pudding … just tell them. Two souls, two hearts prepare for you food with a face <3 Ante Prgin …is a multi-instrumentalist, drummer, percussionist, singer, producer and musical innovator. He has worked and collaborated with many musicians from the Croatian music scene … With his beatbox project, it seems, he brings together all his interests and knowledge in one, perfect funk, reggae, dub, dubstep, drum & bass, afro beat, house and techno mix. SURKA does beatbox with a microphone and loop machines with which he creates phrases that turn into a complete song! He doesn’t have pre-prepared loops, mp3s, CDs or sequencers! Improvisation makes each song unique because, guided by the atmosphere it comes to life in the moment. His beatbox performance is on the trail of the world’s top musical innovators such as Beardyman, Dub FX, Reggie Watts … He is an artist whose time has yet to come, as proved by the performances at major Croatian festivals such as Terraneo, INmusic, Pula Film Festival, Cro A Porter, Rujan fest, etc… Emil Jurcan …is a solo project by Emil Jurcan, a member of the band from Pula called “Palme”, the music section of the cooperative Praksa. With his amateurish approach to music Palmiro creates background music using borrowed instruments and devices such as drum machines, turntables and analogue synthesizers. The music that comes to life from this experiment is intended to spread love and communism. Marino Morosin …is a young full-time producer and as he says, a student in his spare time. He is active since the mid 2000’s. Over the years he created music as part of the collective DEM crew (production and beat making) and the group Soundcheck Regaz with whom he released the album “Macchiato and a glass of water.” Sometime later he turned to independent work focusing on Chill Trap / Electronic Beats music from which he created the EP “We Can Fly”. Author of the concept: Tamara Nikolić Đerić, curator-ethnologist; Design: Studio Dota Contrada is the first thematic exhibition organized by the Ecomuseum Batana in cooperation with the Italian Union “Pino Budicin”, Rovinj primary schools, pre-schools and numerous associates. The aim of the exhibition is to evaluate and promote the traditional children’s games and staying outdoors, as well as childhood memories as a catalyst for social change and cohesion. The exhibition offers an experiential, authentic experience with the possibility of playing old traditional games and new digital games created on the model of those played in the 50s. Author and leader: Zvonimir Lapov-Padovan, Polytechnics engineer With the support of: LEGO Club “Koickice” The playroom allows interaction and management of LEGO® Technic vehicles and robots that are a blend of traditional and digital toys. Participants in the game extend their knowledge of Bluetooth and infrared communication between devices. Two workshops for children will be held during this year’s festival. The workshops are free and do not need prior knowledge. The workshops organizers are: DiA DAI SAI, Nenad Sinkauz, Porta Vitae – School of Foreign Languages, Piccoli terremoti. Workshop leaders: DiA DAI SAI architects collective (section of the Society of Architects of Istria), Daniela Škandul, Danijela Perčić-Tičić, Marta Bognar, Katja Regvat, Workshop timetable: Friday, 08.19. 2016, from 6PM to 20PM, Tito’s park, Age of participants: from 9 to 12 years DiA DAI SAI is a collective of architects which performs spatial exercises with children. Under the full name Section of Children in Architecture and under the aegis of the Society of Architects of Istria – the collective is active since 2010, and it was created with the wish to contribute to basic art education in the disadvantaged school curriculum, which amounts to one hour per week. To achieve this, DiA DAI SAI explains space through games, gestures, events; and at the same time tries to strengthen the sensibility of three-dimensional boundaries which in many ways define our reality. On this occasion, in cooperation with Metamedij and inspired by the theme of new layers and oblivion, DiA will deconstruct the relationship between Radauš’s riots in Villefrancha, the uprising of the people of Istria, monuments to fallen soldiers of NOVJ – the victims of fascism, the universal symbols of representation of suffering / resistance and modes of representation of bunkered memorial plastic … and they will ask: who’s who? –thus enabling the protagonists themselves to explain how and why (here) things are. In addition, the children will assemble a pArcadia on a larger map of Tito’s park – an eternal now, where post-readings don’t distort experience, intention or coincidences. The workshop includes the creation of a (new) look of the park based on the visions of the children who will arrange pictures and models through games on a big layout of the park itself. Workshop leader: Nenad Sinkauz; Workshop timetable: Friday and Saturday, 19th and 20th of August 2016, from 8PM- to 21.30PM, Tito’s park, Age of the participants: 6 to 14 years (two groups) Sound factory is a workshop of electronic and improvised music for children, led by musician and composer Nenad Sinkauz. In this educational project the little musicians of the future have the opportunity to get acquainted with microphones, effects, synthesizers … and through the use of his voice (and body) and audio equipment Sinkauz directs and teaches them the basics of improvisation. In the sound factory music is produced using a variety of objects, effects, live sampling, modulating voice, but above all by playing games, through which participants come to a kind of instant composition at a level adjusted precisely to their age, perceptions and knowledge of the art of music. “I try to explain to the children that music is not just what you hear on television, verse and chorus, that it’s not just pop songs or even just classical music. A large focus is put on listening. Actually, I’m trying to teach them to listen to each other and what they do. I’m trying to teach them to play various objects, garbage bags, styrofoam, and so on, and then we modulate those sounds together through various effects. “- Nenad Sinkauz Nenad Sinkauz (1980) has obtained his masters degree in ethnomusicology in Padua. He is a composer and performer in music, dance, theatre and multimedia projects. In the year 2002 he founded the band East Rodeo within which he cooperates with a number of international jazz and rock musicians, combining avant-rock, live electronics, noise, experimental and improvised music. Sinkauz is the author and performer in the acclaimed audio-visual project … day of the year which explores the relationship of sound and video through improvisation and live sampling.]]> Summer Sessions are short term artist residencies that take place over the summer months. These residencies aim to jumpstart the professional practice of early career artists by offering a highly productive atmosphere of expert feedback, production support and resources, as well as interaction with other international participants.

By applying to the Summer Sessions, Vida Guzmić won the support of Metamedia to attend a residency programme in V2 – instutute for unstable media in Rottertam (www.v2.nl) where she will live for several weeks and work on her new film production. Young artist from The Hague, student at the ArtScience Interfaculty (Royal Conservatory & The Royal Academy of the Arts, The Hague), Mr. Vermeulen discovers primary phenomena in all kinds of different media, sound, light, physics, nature. He starts playing and fighting with them to isolate the things he sees and try’s to tame and compose with them. He builds setups and immersive installations of provoking experiences, which questions the senses of the viewer by transporting them in another world. Thanks to the support of V2 institute, Philip is currently living in Pula and working in the workspaces of Metamedia and Sonitus where he is building an unstable media installation “High-speed-ball-distribution system to create and to control physical rhythms”. The installation includes machines for ejecting tennis balls which he will programme to eject the balls in a certain rhythm and thus realize a musical composition which will last several minutes. philipvermeulen.com Additional information about the partners from the Summer Sessions: http://www.summersessions.net/partners]]> The workshop hosted young experts and artists (college and high-school students) from Pula, Novigrad, Ljubljana (SLO), Rijeka, Split, Dubrovnik. Through multidisciplinary group work they worked with design as a different way of thinking – reflexive, critical and socially responsible. By investigating the relation of technology and society/culture in the public space of Pula, the participants were rethinking the possible futures and alternative presents of the city and designed different objects in space – prototypes of speculative design. The mentors of the workshop were Martin Skelly (Scotland), Oleg Šuran (DVK/UMAS, Split) + Ivica Mitrović (DVK/UMAS, Split). The participants worked in 3 groups. The videos and texts below explain their prototypes and potential near-future scenarios. Maja Dika, Nika Krajnović, Roberta Paljar, Tea Zbašnik Most public spaces today include a commercial business which makes the space semi private while boosting consumerism and individual profit. There is also an increase in pressure for people to share more and more of their personal information without questioning the real value that can be obtained from their data. We foresee a probable future in which our current concept of public space has ceased to exist since all urban area is considered private property and must be commercially profitable. In order to enjoy these, the dwellers will have to pay for their access. However not with money, but with their personal data, which will be collected by machines located at the entrance to public spaces. There are four payment methods – blood, hair, saliva and mobile phone data – each providing a different percentage of access to the public space. By entering they are giving up on any rights they have regarding the possible use of their data. Interviews with dwellers on public spaces demonstrated not only the publics willingness to give away data from physical body samples, but also the contradictory condition of fear toward giving away mobile phone data. This project idea is not only to increase public awareness on the usage and meaning of public space and point out its frequent misusage prioritizing consumption, but also to raise a question on the different types of data sources, the relationship between them and their potential value when becoming part of the ”big data“. Demi Lisjak, Andrea Lovrinčić, Sara Poljak, Lara Šebelja, Ivan Goran Žunar In antique Roman cities the Forum was a political and cultural center. Today people are developing their opinions online, by relying on search engines, and empowering the trend of discussion and activism through social media. People don’t gather so much in public space as they did before, which leads to a general lack of interest and a feeling of weakness, which in turn leads to social alienation. What if this goes on and on? What if people stop communicating in the offline world? Towke is an impeccable decision generator that helps to solve your problems. It is an AI object, originally created for the government to verify the truthfulness and probability of different data. It works as a virtual database by filtering and evaluating data based on the given question. After it solved many issues and got the trust and respect of the people, it is now publicly displayed to be available to anyone. It’s growing popularity lead to the development of a small, personal Towke. Demi Lisjak, Andrea Lovrinčić, Sara Poljak, Lara Šebelja, Ivan Goran Žunar But what if activism doesn’t have to stay online? 121 platform enables anyone interested in recent political problems, to state their opinion and directly affect political decisions. The platform is constructed in front of the city hall and it is digitally connected with the hall. To function, the number of its users has to be the same as the number of the city hall council members. The citizens standing on the platform are following the discussion inside the city hall. By jumping they can create an irritating sound inside the city hall that represents their disagreement. The intensity of the sound depends on the number of people jumping. Vinka Bedeković, Nika Lapkovski, Ivor Borovečki, Leo Kirinčić, Jelena Njeguš, Anđelo Semolić, Mate Žaja As a subject we chose the social center K. Rojc. Seeing the majority of our participants are not locals of Pula, we analyzed the current state of K. Rojc through conversation. Rojc has after its discontinued use as military barrack and shelter for war refugees, non-profit societies were placed there by Pula administration. All of these societies invested their own time and money into transforming ex-military barracks into a cultural center. What came most to our attention was the problem of a poor relationship between the citizens and both city and state goverment. Any critical thought or action can result in Rojc being left without any financial support, and in this way K. Rojc stagnates and doesn’t progress in the intended way. We went to the streets of Pula to ask the citizens about this problem. It would be an understatement to say we got a handfull of complaints. But one discovery that we found crucial was the following: if Rojc as a community criticizes the current political state, the goverment slows down processes and cuts the cash flow. This results in shrinking of the community that over time loses the ability to create in a sustainable way. Our new goal became encouraging conversations about how critical thought and action are a legitimate part of the workings of an alternative scene. We designed a critical object that functions as an interactive comment, representing government feedback to public comments and pleas. It encourages people to vocally express their critiques through the microphone, which detects their presence and reacts by slapping the user with a plank rotated by a hidden electric motor. Our intention is that it makes people draw a parallel between the object and the before mentioned problem, and help initiate discussions.

Udruga za razvoj audio-vizualne umjetnosti Media Mediterranea 18 festival održat će se 19. i 20. kolovoza, od 18:00 do 00:00 sati, u Titovom parku u Puli. Tema festivala je “Post-it”, a program uključuje: novomedijske interaktivne instalacije i igre, multimedijalni kutak za djecu, radionice za djecu (Djeca i arhitektura; pArkadija, Tvornica zvuka), post-elektronske glazbene performanse, piknik soundtrack. Autor: Francisco Queirós Video projekcija: kozmička smrt. nema nijeme slike. moć. zmija koja pleše Kozmička smrt je vrlo reprezentativan rad umjetnika Francisca Queirósa, koji okuplja mnoge njegove interese: crtanje, glazbu (punk) i poeziju. U videu se nalazi nekoliko slojeva priča, u slikama, nijemih ili zapisanih. Postoje četiri priče koje su međusobno povezane: kozmička smrt. nema nijeme slike. powah. zmija koja pleše. Fikcije koje se križaju sa stvarnošću: ptica, beskućnika, jednog jaja ili pretpovijesnog kamenja. To je poput sažetog pregleda čovječanstva u kratkom vremenskom roku u kojem se bavimo zabavom, smrću i perzistencijom. «Nema nijeme slike» je ujedno i parola za ovogodišnji „Post it!“ festival. Autor: Gereon Krebber Konstrukcijski set Gereon Krebber je kipar vrlo eksperimentalne prakse, eksperimentalan u materijalima, oblicima i veličinama skulptura, ali i vrlo zainteresiran za dijeljenje svojeg iskustva kao praktičara suvremene umjetnosti. Ovi konstrukcijski setovi su instrument za samostalnu izradu skulpture Gereona Krebbera – kipar daje odgovarajuće upute, ali rezultat ovisi o vašoj vlastitoj sposobnosti da to učinite i izgradite ga, zatim možete preuzeti svoju skulpturu i objesiti ju na zid: Riječima umjetnika: “Ja sam te A4-bazirane DIY-setove izmislio za potrebe moje web stranice. Budući da nisam bio u potpunosti zadovoljan samo s virtualnim prikazivanjem radova na webu, oni na taj način postaju realni zahvaljujući najjednostavnijim sredstvima kao što su listovi papira. Na vama je da ih napravite sami. To nije samo jedina vrsta preteče 3D-tiska – prvi rad naziva ‘kutija s repovima’ je, koliko se sjećam, čak iz 2004 – to je uradi sam svog Krebbera, za kojeg se nadam da je razigran i pristupačan svima.” Ovaj rad u sklopu Media Mediterranea festivala je suradnički projekt umjetnika i javnosti u Puli, a bavi se minimalističkim skulpturama i autorstvom u umjetnosti. Autor: Ceal Floyer Zvučna instalacija Od 0 do10, Ceal Floyer mijenja povijesnu snimku lansiranja svemirske rakete Apollo 11. Suprotno predivnom otkriću Fritza Langa iz 1929, koji je izumio načelo odbrojavanja kako bi dodao napetost u filmu Žena u Mjesecu, umjetnica je odlučila preokrenuti odbrojavanje od 0-10. Ova vrlo mala promjena, koja je reprezentativna za njen umjetnički pristup općenito, uznemiruje slušatelje koje iznenađuje nešto modificirana snimka. Igrajući na zajedničkom slušnom poznavanju tog događaja, Ceal Floyer uvodi određeni element neobičnosti; ona dijeli karte povijesti na svoj način, i na taj način stvara drugi narativ koji izaziva našu percepciju vremena. Autor: Ignacio Uriarte Zvučna instalacija 1_2_3_4_3_2_1 je rad brojanja, u kojem čitatelj broji od jedan do deset, i popunjava vrijeme raznim intonacijama na gotovo ritmičan način. U ovom Post it! kontekstu njegov rad je putem odbrojavanja povezan s radom Ceal Floyer “0-10” koja preokreće odbrojavanje lansiranja Apola 11. U ovom slučaju monotonija brojanja predstavlja protok vremena tijekom “uredskog posla”. Autor: Ignacio Uriarte Zvučna instalacija Pisaće mašine, tko još uvijek zna za te strojeve? Oni su dio arheologije dizajna XX stoljeća. U ovom audio komadu Ignacio Uriarte ih snima u ritmu koji podsjeća na glazbu kompozicija Stevea Reicha, pružajući nam zvučno sjećanje na objekt koji ne vidimo. Ovaj rad koji će biti predstavljen u zvučnom okruženju Titovog Parka gotovo je anti-park rad zbog konteksta zatvorenog prostora ureda kojeg obično povezujemo s ovim strojevima. Rad Ignatija Uriartea je uglavnom fokusiran na crtež u kojem je glavni medij papir, i njegovu praksu u onome što možemo nazvati “uredskom umjetnošću” – što znači da koristi uredski materijal poput papira, olovke i BIC kemijske te istražuje sve njihove geometrije. Unutar tog svemira on također proizvodi video i audio djela koja bi mogli nazvati vriskom uredskog zaposlenika. Za ovaj festival na otvorenom odlučili smo se predstaviti dva njegova audio rada. Autor: Anselmo Tumpić Interaktivan umjetnički rad Rezultat ovog interaktivnog umjetničkog rada, odnosno izgled tragova na papiru nakon intervencije je potpuno nepredvidiv. Igrači neće biti fokusirani na tragove koje njihova “igračka” ostavlja već na igru i zadana pravila, a tragovi koje igračke ostave biti će naš krajnji proizvod. Mijenjajući pravila “igre” mijenjat ćemo krajnji izgled platna. U širem društvenom kontekstu, mijenjajući pravila koja upravljaju društvima mijenjamo konačni rezultat pravila koja utječu na naš život. Ta pravila ostavljaju tragove u našim životima. Autorica: Dragana Sapanjoš, udruga Mokar prst Osb ploče, neon Udruga mokar prst je u radu Fssssssssss analizirala dio neverbalne komunikacije koja nam je ušla u svakodnevnicu pojavom sms-a i nadalje, chata, maila… Tekstovni znak koji u nama, pukim gledanjem, iščitava osjećaj našeg sugovornika. Autori: Vedran Gligo, Ana Jurčić, Dina Karadžić, Josipa Komljenović, Karlo Marković, Sara Salamon, Betty Stojnić; Voditelji radionice: Vedran Gligo, Dina Karadžić (hacklab01.org / FormatC.hr); Produkcijska podrška: Filmaktiv Video instalacija – rezultati radionice Glitch Glitch [expo] predstavlja niz vježbi, eksperimenata i namjernih pogrešaka nastalih tokom radionice “Glitch”, održanoj u sklopu programa Primijenjeni video (Filmaktiv), a koju su vodili Vedran Gligo (hacklab01) i Dina Karadžić (Format C). Osnovne premise glitcha kao reinterpretacijskog umjetničkog djelovanja na tromeđi umjetnosti, računalne kulture i kulture remix-a su narativ učiniti nepredvidljivim a medij vidljivim, te proširiti klasične paradigme suvremene umjetničke kreacije u nove oblike inkluzivnog transdisciplinarnog suradničkog djelovanja baziranog na otvorenom softveru, slobodnoj kulturi i prijenosu znanja, i apostrofirati značaj eksperimentalnih procesa umjetničkog istraživanja, a u svrhu stvaranja novog vokabulara kulture koja odgovorno i konstruktivno raste uz napredak digitalne tehnologije. Autor: Oleg Morović Interaktivna instalacija Oleg Morović (Pula, 1987) jedan je od novih i vrlo bitnih kreativno – artističkih inovatora grada Pule. Kako je u tom gradu završio Školu primijenjene umjetnosti i dizajna logično je da radi kao dizajner, gdje je svojim lucidnim grafičkim rješenjima već zadobio dužnu pažnju stručne, a i ostale javnosti. Tijesno surađuje s Olegom Šuranom pa taj dvojac suvereno vlada novom oblikovnom stvarnošću. Zajedno sviraju u bendu (Cnjotfiher), a u kolaboraciji s Andijem Pekicem izdaju časopis Polet koji se bavi književnim i likovnim objavama uglavnom navedene trojice autora. Kako je Oleg svestran, na MediaMediteranei neće gnjaviti sovjim dizajnom već radom koji se zove (naziv je bitan) #MM18. Radi se o izravnom prijenosu (kao na televiziji) sadržaja direktnim upload-om na online platformu (instagram), a to se podiže (vidi naziv rada) s hashtagom/oznakom “#MM18”. Tako će prisutni uživo vidjeti što im se trenutno događa s potiljkom, leđima i tko im u uglu ljubi curu. Da li je ta tehnologija dobra ili loša procijeniti ćete Vi i Vaša cura kad se vratite doma, a možda i prije. (Mladen Lučić) Autori: Visiualia group Interaktivna instalacija Ova zabavna instalacija su tri svjetlosne glazbene klupice koje sadrže zvukove različitih instrumenata. Jednostavnim udarcem po površini klupica stvara se zvuk te posjetitelj na taj način stvara melodiju. Osim toga, spajanjem preko bluetootha na klupice, posjetitelj može pustiti svoju omiljenu pjesmu i uživati u njoj. Na Vama je da dođete i provjerite koliko ste vješti u sviranju na njima! Autori: sudionici natječaja za autorske GIF animacije; Autor natječaja: Dario Dević; Produkcija: Metamedij Video instalacija sačinjena od 15 GIF animacija Petnaest najboljih radova pristiglih do 16. kolovoza na natječaj za autorske GIF animacije organiziran od strane udruge Metamedij bit će prikazani u obliku video instalacije. Radi se o umjetničkim djelima koja kroz medij kratke internetske animacije tematiziraju aktualne promjene u društvu, umjetnosti , kulturi, čovječanstvu ili pak samim autorima. Više o samom “Prije/Poslije” natječaju te kako sudjelovati na: http://prijeposlije.tumblr.com/submit Postmodernistički koncept glazbeno gastronomskog programa koji će vam uz zvukove “moderne klasike” dueta Ansamble da camera i DJ programa koji kombinira ambijentalnu i lounge elektronsku glazbu te organsku hranu SEK (solidarna ekološka kuhinja) učiniti boravak u parku nesvakidašnjim iskustvom. Branko Škara i Anamarija Škara Ansambl djeluje već niz godina u različitim komornim sastavima te izvodi repertoar od starih majstora, baroknih sonata, klasičnih i romantičnih djela, do suvremenih skladbi i jazza, te organske elektroničke glazbe. Na Media Mediterranea 18 festivalu vam se predstavljaju s prigodnim programom u sastavu komornog dueta flaute i klarineta, flautistica Anamarija Škara i klarinetist Branko Škara. Marino Jurcan Iza ovog pseudonima krije se dj marino koji će za nastup na festivalu pripremiti dj set kao kombinaciju nespojivog; ambijentalne tišine i dinamičnih elektronskih ritmova, analogne romantike i digitalnog realizma. Tea Janko Bevandić, Andreja Buić Nastala kao prirodni nastavak SEG grupe i SET tržnice. Dvojac u kuhinji, Tea Janko Bevandić i Andreja Buić, dvije su zaljubljenice u kuhinju i sve oko nje. U pripremi hrane koriste isključivo sezonske, lokalne i ekološki uzgojene namirnice spajajući tradiciju sa modernim gastro trendovima. Svoju hranu vole predstavljati same i uvijek su spremne za akciju, pa ukoliko želite tradicionalnu istarsku panadu, šalšu od pomidora ili pak paštu sa rogačem, marmeladu od krastavaca, možda puding od lubenice… recite im to. Dvije duše, dva srca spremaju vam hranu s licem <3 Ante Prgin … je multi-instumentalist, bubnjar, udaraljkas, pjevač, producent i glazbeni inovator. Surađivao je i surađuje sa mnogim glazbenicima sa Hrvatske glazbene scene… Svojim beatbox projektom, čini se, spaja sva svoja zvanja i znanja u jedno, savršen funk, reggae, dub, dubstep, drum&base, afro beat, house i techno mix. SURKA radi beatbox sa mikrofonom i loop mašinama pri čemu stvara fraze od kojih nastaje kompletna pjesma! Nema unaprijed pripremljenih loopova, mp3-ca, CD-a ni sekvencera! Improvizacija svaku pjesmu čini neponovljivom jer, vođena atmosferom, nastaje u trenu. Njegov beatbox performans na tragu je najboljih svjetskih glazbenih inovatora poput Beardymana, DUB FX-a, Reggie Wattsa… Umjetnik čije vrijeme tek dolazi, što potvrđuju i nastupi na najvećim hrvatskim festivalima poput Terranea, INmusica, Pula film festivala, Cro A Portera, Rujan festa, itd.. Emil Jurcan … je solo projekt Emila Jurcana, člana pulskog benda “Palme”, glazbene sekcije zadruge Praksa. Svojim amaterskim pristupom muzici Palmiro stvara zvučnu kulisu služeći se posuđenim instrumentima i spravama poput ritam mašina, gramofona i analognih sintisajzera. Glazba koja proizlazi iz tog eksperimenta namijenjena je širenju ljubavi i komunizma. Marino Morosin … je mladi full-time producent i kako kaže, u slobodno vrijeme student. Aktivno djeluje od sredine 2000. Tijekom godina je stvarao u sklopu kolektiva DEM-crew (produkcija i beat making) te grupe Soundcheck Regaz s kojom izdaje album “Macchiato i čaša vode”. Nešto kasnije okreće se samostalnom radu s naglaskom na Chill Trap/Electronic Beats glazbu iz čega nastaje EP “We Can Fly”. Autor koncepta: Tamara Nikolić Đerić, kustosica-etnologinja; Dizajn: Studio Dota Contrada je prva tematska izložba koju organizira Ekomuzej Batana u suradnji sa Zajednicom Talijana “Pino Budicin”, rovinjskim osnovnim školama, predškolskim ustanovama i mnogobrojnim suradnicima. Cilj izložbe je valorizirati i promovirati tradicionalne dječje igre i boravak na otvorenom, te sjećanja iz djetinjstva kao katalizator društvenih promjena i kohezije. Izložba nudi iskustveni, autentični doživljaj uz mogućnost igranja starih tradicionalnih igara te novih digitalnih igara nastalih po uzoru na one koje su se igrale ’50. godina. Autor i voditelj: Zvonimir Lapov-Padovan, ing. politehnike; Uz podršku: LEGO kluba “Kockice” Igraonica omogućuje interakciju i upravljanje s LEGO Technic vozilima i robotima koji su spoj tradicionalnih i digitalnih igračaka. Sudionici kroz igru proširuju svoja znanja o Bluetooth i IR komunikaciji među uređajima. U okviru ovogodišnjeg festivala održat će se i dvije radionice za djecu. Radionice su besplatne i nije potrebno predznanje. U organizaciji radionica sudjeluju: DiA DAI SAI, Nenad Sinkauz, Porta Vitae – škola za strane jezike, Piccoli Terremoti. Voditelji radionice: DiA DAI SAI kolektiv arhitekata (sekcija Društva arhitekata Istre) – Daniela Škandul, Danijela Perčić-Tičić, Marta Bognar, Katja Regvat; Vrijeme održavanja radionice: petak, 19.08. 2016., od 18:00 do 20:00 sati, Titov park; Dob sudionika: od 9 do 12 godina DiA DAI SAI je kolektiv arhitekata koji izvodi prostorne vježbe s djecom. Punim imenom Sekcija Djeca i Arhitektura, pod okriljem Društva arhitekata Istre – kolektiv djeluje od 2010., nastao sa željom da doprinese osnovnom likovnom obrazovanju u zakinutom školskom kurikulumu, optimalnoga opterećenja od cijelih 1 sat tjedno. Kako bi to ostvarili, DiA DAI SAI prostor objašnjavaju kroz igru, gestu, događaj; i pri tom namjeravaju osnažiti senzibilitet za 3D granice koje na mnogostruke načine definiraju našu stvarnost. Ovom prilikom, u suradnji s udrugom Metamedij, a nadahnuti temom novih slojeva i zaborava, DiA će dekonstruirati vezu između Radauševe Pobune u Villefrancheu, ustanka naroda Istre, spomenika palim borcima NOVJ – žrtvama fašizma, univerzalnih simbola predstavljanja stradanja/otpora i načina reprezentacije bunkerirane memorijalne plastike… i pitat će: tko je tko? – ne bi li protagonisti sami objasnili kako i zašto (ovdje) stvari stoje. Osim toga, djeca će na uvećanoj mapi Titovog parka slagati pArkadiju – vječno sada, u kojemu post-čitanja ne iskrivljavaju ni doživljaj, ni namjeru, ni koincidencije. Radionica uključuje osmišljavanje (novog) izgleda parka prema vizijama djece koja će kroz igru na velikom tlocrtu slagati sličice i modele. Voditelj radionice: Nenad Sinkauz; Vrijeme održavanja radionica: petak i subota, 19. i 20.08. 2016., od 20:00 do 21:30 sati, Titov park; Dob sudionika: od 6 do 14 godina (2 grupe) Tvornica zvuka je radionica elektroničke i improvizirane glazbe za djecu pod vodstvom glazbenika i skladatelja Nenada Sinkauza. U ovom su se edukativnom projektu mali glazbenici budućnosti imaju mogućnost upoznati s mikrofonima, efektima, sintetizatorima… a kroz upotrebu vlastitog glasa (i tijela) i audio opreme Sinkauz ih usmjerava i uči osnovama improvizacije. U Tvornici zvuka glazba se proizvodi upotrebom različitih predmeta, efekata, live samplingom, moduliranjem glasa, ali prije svega igrom, kroz koju polaznici dolaze do svojevrsne instant kompozicije na nivou prilagođenom upravo njihovom uzrastu, percepciji i spoznaji o glazbenoj umjetnosti. “Pokušavam djeci objasniti da muzika nije samo ono što se čuje na televiziji, strofa i refren, da to nisu samo pop pjesmice niti samo klasična glazba. Veliki fokus stavljam na slušanje. Zapravo ih pokušavam učiti da slušaju jedan drugoga i to što rade. I pokušavam ih učiti svirati raznim predmetima, vrećicama za smeće, stiroporima, i tako dalje, i onda zajedno moduliramo te zvukove kroz efekte.” – Nenad Sinkauz Nenad Sinkauz (1980.) je magistrirao etnomuzikologiju u Padovi. Po zanimanju je skladatelj i izvođač u glazbenim, plesnim, kazališnim i multimedijskim projektima. 2002. godine osniva sastav East Rodeo u sklopu kojega surađuje s nizom međunarodnih jazz i rock glazbenika, spajajući avant-rock, živu elektroniku, noise, eksperimentalnu i improviziranu glazbu. Sinkauz je autor i izvođač u hvaljenom audovizualnom projektu … day of the year koji kroz improvizaciju i live sampling istražuje odnose zvuka i videa. Za sudjelovanje na jednoj ili obje radionice potrebno je najaviti se putem e-maila mm18festival@gmail.com ili na 099 878 9284. Rok za prijavu je 16. kolovoza 2016. Mjesta su ograničena.
