Panelists will consider the research paradigm shift going on right now from the point of view of artists and researchers working in an institutional context. The focus will be on the new link-up of scientific systems and previously excluded segments of society.

Pixelspaces – Day 1: Changing the Research Paradigm

Having gotten its start with simple everyday objects and progressed all the way to highly complex scientific test assemblies, there doesn’t seem to be anything the “do-it-yourself” culture can’t do. People are eplicating scientific experiments in their own living room, opening up new market niches with the simplest of technologies, and delivering electricity to disadvantaged regions in developing countries. This trend is emblematic of a cultural orientation that proceeds under the assumption that technologies and professional expertise are not only to be produced in scientific laboratories or by large companies. The first day of the pixelspaces Symposium will take a closer look at what’s happening here.
