Based on the intersections between the human and the technology, the event will think about the place of the body and of the intimacy in a time in which the digital, the technology and the artificial intelligences seem to contaminate the human experience. Workshops, performances, concerts, books and dance form an alignment that provokes unusual encounters between humanist culture and cyber culture, questioning our ways of making and enjoying the arts in a digital world.

Marco Donnarumma
Artist and scholar. Born in Naples, Italy, 1984. Lives and works in Berlin, Germany.
A unique presence across contemporary performance and media art, Marco Donnarumma distinguishes himself by his use of emerging technology to deliver artworks that are at once intimate and powerful, oneiric and uncompromising, sensual and confrontational. Working with biotechnology, biophysical sensing, as well as artificial intelligence (AI) and neurorobotics, Donnarumma expresses the chimerical nature of the body with a new and unsettling intensity. He is renown for his focus on sound, whose physicality and depth he exploits to create experiences of instability, awe, shock and entrainment.
In 14 years of practice, Donnarumma has developed a deeply transdisciplinary expertise, drawing equally from live art, music, biological science, computation and cultural studies. He holds a Ph.D. in performing arts, computing and body theory from Goldsmiths, University of London, and is currently a Research Fellow at the Berlin University of the Arts in partnership with the Neurorobotics Research Lab Berlin. His newest performance for human dancers and AI prostheses, Alia: Zǔ tài, was recently awarded the Goethe Institut’s International Coproduction Fund, and will be co-produced in 2018 by CTM Festival (Berlin) and Chronus Art Center (Shanghai) during a year of exchange across Germany and China.
Writing regularly on body, music, technology and performance studies, Donnarumma is published by MIT Press, Oxford University Press, Routledge and Springer. His artworks received several awards, including the second prize (Award of Distinction) in Sound Art at the Prix Ars Electronica (2017), the first prize at the Cynetart Award for Computer Based Art (2014), the second prize at TransitioMX Award for New Media Art (2013), and the first prize at the Guthman New Musical Instrument Competition (2012), among others. Articles and interviews featuring his work appear on BBC, The WIRE, Forbes, Reuters, ARTE.TV, Wired, IEEE, RTVE, El Pais, CreativeApplications, ResonanceFM and The Creators Project.
Donnarumma’s arresting visions of the body toured more than 60 countries worldwide with shows at Venice Biennale (Venice), Steirischer Herbst (Graz), ZKM Center for Art and Media (Karlsruhe), Sónar+D Advanced Music Festival (Barcelona), ISEA International Symposium on Electronic Art (Albuquerque), FILE Electronic Language Festival (Sao Paulo), RPM: Ten Years of Sound Art in China (Shanghai), Laboratorio Arte Alameda (Mexico City), Némo Biennal of Digital Arts (Paris), transmediale Festival for Art and Digital Culture and CTM Festival for Adventurous Music and Art (Berlin). He was granted fundings from the European Commission, Goethe-Institut, British Council, Creative Scotland, New Media Scotland, and the Danish Arts Council, and received commissions from CTM, transmediale, 4DSOUND, European Conference of Promoters of New Music and STEIM.
Miguel Palma
He was born in 1964 in Lisbon, where he currently lives and works. Its artistic path characterized by the strong sculptural component, is distinguished mainly by the improbable installations. He works often in collaboration with teams of engineers, mechanics, carpenters and biologists, among other specialists. Its production has a hybrid character, linked to the industrial production of the twentieth century. Palma's work often addresses how technology has influenced modern man's life, its relation to the environment and the ideas of human comfort or the idea of power. Parallel to the installations, it uses the design, the video and the performance.
Nerea Castro
Working across a variety media that include photography, video, drawing and sculpture, Nerea Castro employs a subtly minimalistic aesthetic that encourages the viewer to consider their own identity and the diversity of relationships that constitute our experience of the world. The formal articulations of her ideas bear on the affective power of colour, shape and texture as a point of connection to more subjective realities.
Drawn to visual communication from a very young age, Nerea began experimenting in the realm of audiovisual performances in real-time with the collective Hedonistas. Her practise broadens during the time she lived in London, navigating between analog and digital media. In close relationship with contemporary sculpture, her interest is pushed towards the exploration of light in space as a medium of expression. Her first major immersive installation In Praise of Shadows (2017) has already been exhibited at Maus Hábitos and GNRation.
Nicolat Canot
Nicolas Canot is a sound and digital artist, improviser, programmer, guitar player and teacher based in Reims, France. His sound creations and installations were showed in France, England, Romania, Portugal, Canada, Poland, Russia, etc. He performs as a solo artist and regularly collaborates with visual or sound artists as well as jazz instrumentalists and improvisers.
