Book launch by Manuela Naveau (AT). In conversation with UBERMORGEN
In Februar 2017 the book “Crowd and Art – art and participation in the internet” had been published by Manuela Naveau (AT). She will give us insights into her research, that is challenging romanticized conceptions of participation such as emancipation and empowerment, as well as dystopian connotations like surveillance, control and appropriation. She argues that the terms such as the masses and the individual have to be redefined and focuses attention on forms of participation that occur involuntarily and unconsciously. The artists collective UBERMORGEN is presented with „[V]ote-auction“ as a case study in the publication and Manuela Naveau is discussing together with Lizvlx and Hans Bernhard their newest works.
