Autumn Lectures Schedule:

October 18, 2022, 6pm
Richard Kitta
Lecture Title: Archeology of Digital Future. Art as Interface.

A few useful instructions on how to get “lost” in contemporary art, which can be highly interactive, virtual or immersive. Despite the omnipresent dominance of digital technologies, we do come across various, often contradicting combinations – like when we find ourselves at a crossroads of the virtual and the physical. The piece of art suddenly gains a new purpose or becomes a kind of digital “plagiarism”, but still remains unique and unrepeatable. (The author is a multimedia artist and university lecturer).

András Cséfalvay
Lecture Title: Digital Art in Gaming Environment

After exploring the quarries of Sandberg near Bratislava and Prokop Valley near Prague, I wanted to create such pieces of art that would deliver the message hidden in fossils. For this purpose, I have chosen the environment of computer games. The lecture will follow the trajectory of these artworks, how they were created and it will also talk about the importance of understanding new communication channels in the world of art.
