Discovering CyberAntarctic: A Conversation with Knowbotics Research

Paolo Atzori

The world presents itself to us, effectively.
- J. Baudrillard

Which worlds?
- Knowbotics Research

Knowbotic Research (KR+cF) develops hybrid models of knowledge generation. These models are complex dynamic fields which produce an exchange between virtual agents, poetic machines and interactive visitors. They enable an observer to participate in the physical exploration and construction of networked rules and strategies of the new public spheres. KR+cF outlines technoid events parallel in real and virtual spaces to investigate the experience of the multiple layers of reality. These extensions of the cultural environment provoke new cultural and aesthetic parameters in order to prevent an ideological closed circuit in an information based society. KR+cF - Yvonne Wilhelm, Alexander Tuchacek, Christian Huebler - is based in Koln, at the Academy for Media Arts. In partnership with Westbank Industries and Tactile Technology, KR+cF has founded Mem_brane, a laboratory for media strategies. KR+cF has won several major international Media Art Awards, including: Prix Ars Electronica 93, Golden Nica for Interactive Art; German Media Art Award, and ZKM Karlsruhe 95.


CTHEORY: Last November in Hamburg during "Interface3" you finally installed your new work, "Dialogue with the Knowbotic South." What is the topic of your discourse?

Christian Huebler: Our approach is to focus on the scientific world in reference to the South Pole and to study the codes used by scientists of the Antarctic who make computer simulations. We intend to offer a model for a discourse between different fields of the communications world. From an artistic point of view, our project formalizes the problem of a missing language.

CTHEORY: A dialogue beginning from the state of a missing language... Is this the starting point for your new artistic activity or a hypothetical limit?

Christian Huebler: One has to discard one's own old language. How shall we discuss what we are doing? We don't debate with journalists and critics only but also exchange ideas with the scientists. It really becomes a problem if we don't have a language.

Yvonne Wilhelm: It's a development of our own history as artists, as aesthetic beings; you have to log in into your own history... leer +
