compatible/downloadable
a project by richard kongrosian
| |
Compatible/Downloadable is proposed by Richard Kongrosian in collaboration with
Jérôme Joy, in the context of Le Festival d'Automne (Des oeuvres dans la ville
II / Works into the town II) To launch this first version of the
"International Contest of Composition for Electro-mechanical Piano" the
following events have been organized, a concert for Disklavier solo - for the
first time in France -, a website with downloads of Disklavier musical works to
be played at home, and finally an updatable and evolving database of
contemporary and historical works for Disklavier and mechanical piano has been
set up.
|
This program is realized into the frame of the whole project COMPATIBLE proposed by
Richard Kongrosian, David Vincent and Harald Humbrol, from
06.11.2004 to 29.12.2004 during the Festival d'Automne at Paris.
In this period of the convergence of the digital technologies, just as the artists more and more abandon
the exhibited forms, the artworks seem to disappear and to become non-materialized. In fact we are at the
emergence of practices which are discrete, crypted and infiltrated into other social spaces, encapsulated
into other economies, or in emulating other cultural practices, and in oftenly escaping the question of their
own artistic status. To the logic of exhibition are now succeeding logics of downloadings.
The "Compatible" project is speaking about the setting up of downloading forms and is offering to three artists
the possibility to develop strategies of inter-operabilities initiated by the non-profit organisation "Association
de Prévention du Site de la Villette".
