Electronic Shadow defines its practice on a
permanent exchange between a utopian conceptual
approach, to invent the possible among the new
media potential, and the technological, industrial,
and cultural constraints of reality, by doing
the necessary so that the possible becomes reality.
[
V-Med 2.0 ] proposes a whole series of original
concepts, which can be experimented to make
it possible to the public to perceive their
most interesting aspects. These concepts are
as many new ways of considering the new media
and their experimentation makes germs of the
possible.
[
V-Med 2.0 ] operates a compression of space
in its installation principle, while making
virtually coexist two very real places, but
also time compression by proposing an experimentation
of the relationship between various temporalities
in a new space-time, the 25th time zone.
This
" virtual " Co- connection contributes
to the development of a hybrid reality: hybrid
between physical extensions, two installations,
electronic extensions, this website is one of
them, but also hybrid between geographically
opposed places, Helsinki and Palermo. Hybrid
reality opens a whole reflexion field, of utopian
experiments and makes coexist the actual and
the possible.
[
V-Med 2.0 ] thus invests new technologies like
material of a utopian construction. Internet
isn't only a tool, it is a new space-time, which
is added like a layer on the history of humanity
and of its perception. This process of stratification
is connected with sedimentation of the memory
in a continuous cycle.
What
is invented today is the memory of tomorrow.
