Festival Collective

The sound:frame festival 2013, entitled «collective», will deal with networks, artist collectives, interdisciplinary teamwork, and international collaborations. Taking the «collective» as this year’s key subject is, in some respect, a continuation of the 2012 festival focus, «substructions».

Cooperation, collectively realized visions, and collaborative work in a collective are important components of the substructure of creative production. Based on this concept, the collective is significant especially in the context of sound:frame and its international community, and shall therefore be examined more closely in 2013. sound:frame sees itself as a collective which works and acts both as a compact team and as a global community and platform. Audiovisual artists generally work in collective productions, be it in the shape of live performances or installations. In this discipline solo artists are a rare exception. Visual artists work with musicians and artists from other areas; VJs give joint performances with DJs; and then again interior architects, graphic designers as well as technicians and programmers are all part of collectives. The collective is inherent in any audiovisual and intercreative productive process.

AV means COLLECTIVE.

Ausstellung

«The House of Drift»

A cooperation of sound:frame and MAK

Vernissage: April 4, 2013
Ausstellung: April 5 – April 21, 2013

MAK – Austrian Museum of Applied Arts / Contemporary Art
Weiskirchnerstr. 3, 1010 Vienna

Under the guiding principle «collective», this year sound:frame commissioned several Viennese artists to create a multimedia installation for one of the exhibition spaces at MAK – Austrian Museum of Applied Arts / Contemporary Art: The group sought to reproduce the creative production process of an initiated artist collective consisting of audiovisual artists, architects, fashion designers, performers, photographers, and curators. 

Ideologies of cooperation, multidisciplinarity, networking, collaboration, and outsourcing were the primary topics of the project. As a backdrop, the site-specific work, «The House of Drift», lays open a broader approach to the original term collectivum (Latin for “things gathered together”). In this installation, the viewer is taken through three sequences of a spatially distributed, synchronized video installation and moves among arranged objects in the exhibition space. A sonic landscape sets the tone. The multidisciplinary installation relates the participating elements and media as well as the different referential spaces and disciplines to one another. Christian iconography mixes with honeycomb structures, tribal rites, and other elements. 

“This year’s work pool – eusocial systems, terms such as the collective unconscious, the collective consciousness, tribal rites, etc. – are inspirations and serve to sketch out ideas. We take a system and project certain parameters thereof onto another system. It is a metaphorical work process […]. Big concepts such as the Annunciation, archetypes, rites, and myths disperse and generate in this new multi an ethereal, emotional access to mutual experience.”

«RING GING BLING»

presented by ZIT

Vernissage: April 12, 2013
Ausstellung: April 13 – April 21, 2013

Hotel am Brillantengrund
Bandgasse 4, 1070 Vienna

The collaborative project «RING GING BLING» by the visual artist collective LWZ (Martin Lorenz, Stefan Salcher, Tobias Schererbauer & Markus Wagner) in cooperation with Markus Harthum, Sebastian Pataki, and Lean Woeishi, examines the stories that take place between the picture elements red, green, and blue before they become what we call perception.

Spatially staged ciphers are decoded and interpreted through light refracted into its spectral parts. Hotel am Brillantengrund will serve, first as a workspace, then as an exhibition space, and will thus become another actor in the exhibition who intervenes in the creative process and acts as a member of the collective.

Über sound:frame

Since 2007 the sound:frame festival deals with  audio:visual expressions within an artistic and club-oriented context. Each year intercreativity and collaborations between numerous artists and theorists from various areas such as visual art, media art, architecture and music provide the framework for sound:frame’s thematic focus.  
From the very beginning “sound:frame” stood for the equal interaction between sound and (moving) images. While “sound” represents a fraction of a musical piece or track, “frame” refers to the smallest unit of moving images. Within this context musical as well as visual elements are equally significant.

With each year sound:frame delves deeper into the fields of audiovisual art. Along the lines of „evolution remixed!“ in 2009 the historical review of audiovisual art gained center stage, as technological and artistic remix strategies were discussed. In 2010 and under the theme „dimensions“ sound:frame put its focus on the given framework of space, while audiovisually dealing with spatial structures. In the context of the 2011 core theme „perFORMance“ sound:frame discussed the significance of process-based and performative aspects within audiovisual art forms and their formally aesthetic characteristics. With the 2012 theme «substructions»  sound:frame highlighted current cultural tendencies and dealt more deliberately with the structure of a festival, creating a more transparent approach towards its basic framework, which usually goes unnoticed.

Under the festival’s theme «collective» in 2013 sound:frame will mainly deal with networks, artist collectives, interdisciplinary teamwork and international collaborations. Chances, positive aspects as well as difficulties that arise through collective work will be discussed. As sound:frame seeks to explore and discuss central questions within various contexts, this year’s festival will include formats such as exhibitions, live-events, workshops, screenings and a discourse-program. Sound: frame considers itself to be a platform for current artistic movements, offering artists an international network that supports their artistic, formal, content-related innovations.
