xCoAx is an exploration of the intersection where computational tools and media meet art and culture, in the form of a multi-disciplinary enquiry on aesthetics, computation, communication and the elusive X factor that connects them all.
Since 2013, xCoAx has been an occasion for international audiences to meet and exchange ideas, in search of interdisciplinary synergies among computer scientists, artists, media practitioners and theoreticians at the threshold of digital arts and culture.
The focus is on the unpredictable overlaps between the chaos and freedom of creativity and the rules and determinism of algorithms, between human nature and machine technology, with the aim to evolve towards new directions in aesthetics.
In 2017 xCoAx will take place for the first time in Lisbon, in and around the Faculty of Fine Arts, right in the heart of the city center in Chiado.

During reading, we rapidly construct meaning from sequences of rather cryptic symbols. A multitude of processes are involved in making meaning happen, however, most of them are conveniently tucked away from the reader’s conscious experience allowing them to read effortlessly without having to worry about any of the practicalities such as where to place the gaze next and for how long. The present work reflects on the marvelous feat that is reading. In an experiment-like situation, we create a perceptual short-circuit that unlocks the otherwise unconcsious processes involved in reading. To this end, the test subject is exposed to a written libretto while a computer tracks their eye movements and translates them to sound in real time. The artistic implementation is based on parametric synthesis (“mapping”) and model-based sonification.

TRISTRAMPEDIA II
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
20.30 Uhr in der Villa Elisabeth, Invalidenstraße 3:
FOLLOWING YOUR OWN NOSE – Catches & Canon-Singen. Mit Nasentanz.
22 Uhr im AckerStadtPalast, Ackerstraße 169/170:
DIE AUDITIVE TEXTBESTIE. Oder: Der gefangene Floh. – Installation von Bernd Schurer
Worum geht es diesmal bei der Liedertafel? Es geht weiter um den Tristram Shandy!
Alle scheinen mit allen Projekten gerade schwer im Stress (Kompositionsaufträge, perplexe Lebens- und Liebesentwürfe, Fahrprüfungen). Darum kommt uns diesmal im ersten Teil das besänftigende Catch-Singen und Nasentanzen, im zweiten Teil die auditive Textbestie zu Hilfe. Womöglich wird Florian Neuner eine Shandy-Tirade wagen. Digressionen.
Gewiss wird Bernd Schurer, Komponist elektro-akustischer und computergestützter Musik, zu Gast sein. Vielleicht bringt er Teile eines komplett verspiegeltes Umspannwerk mit, in dem ein Floh sich falsch erinnert. Er lässt wissen: “Aus dem Feld ergeben sich schon viele Linien. Weniger eine Auflösung, mehr ein Challenge.” Konzepte liegen lassen. Murmeln, essen, trinken, Shanties singen.
