Annotations

This text is also about the re-using technological concepts but in a contemporary context → which seems to be a direct duplicate of what Robert Henke said during his performance at Tivoli, where he used computers and techniques from the 80’s, but with the cultural knowledge of today.

The three theme’s introduced to describe how contemporary artists reuse obsolete hardware:

  1. for the sake of exploring and unravelling the black box
  2. tactical reuse aimed at social institution to bring forward social change
  3. archeological reuse for rewiring history

Quote: We shape our tools - and thereafter our tools shape us Marshall McLuhan → Do we still shape our tools, or are the tools shaped around us by said makers of the tools? (Ties into the ideas of Design for Hack-ability)

A black box is a system that is not technically understood or accessed → I’ve been working a lot with no-code platforms, or at least with people that would want to use no code platforms, which is a black box on top of a black box on top of a black box.

“Contemporary electronic devices are intentionally build to be discarded, their obsolescence is clearly planned

2: Tactical reuse: is an artistic activism that reuses technologies in a directly political manner. → Relates to the still-to-be-read Disobedient Electronics Example: The reuse of an discarded children’s dog toys as a platform to detect pollution in public parks, schoolyards and local communities This physical device “disrupts” the public space.

3: archeological re-use → related to the alien circuit bending book where dead media is also referenced The purpose of invoking the past is to bend and short circuit the marginal past with the present. Media archeology remixes and challenges our memories of the past, the historically marginal and our experience in the present.
