The Din A4 format reproductions were printed according to an automated schedule. The printing machine is the only agent at the venue, the curators only submit their selection to the machine in order to have it printed. Thus the curation is manifested by mere mass of reproduction and a lack of explanation thereof. It is an approach to shifting the recipient’s perspective on a product (the artwork) by bluntly creating an overwhelming presence of the image of that product, very similar to the basic workings of the value of presence in advertising. This tries to contradict the stigma of devaluation by reproduction introduced by Walter Benjamin. We think that by copying a work, the idea of the work gains more authority, and therefore the work itself, holding the origin of the idea is increased in its value. By producing reproductions we try to shift the people’s focus to the original idea (not necessarily the original artwork), reinforcing its authority and authenticity rather than defacing it. Thus reproduction is the tool for the manifestation of our selection in the memories of the recipients. together with Karla Spiluttini Cindy Strobach Bartholomäus Traubeck initiated and sponsored by wupwup <img src="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-1.png" width="670" height="364" width_o="2048" height_o="1114" src_o="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-1_o.png" data-mid="15858371" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-5.png" width="670" height="389" width_o="2048" height_o="1189" src_o="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-5_o.png" data-mid="15858289" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-4.png" width="670" height="445" width_o="1948" height_o="1296" src_o="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-4_o.png" data-mid="15858319" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-3.png" width="670" height="445" width_o="1950" height_o="1298" src_o="http://payload40.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/3106689/www-ersions-3_o.png" data-mid="15858329" border="0" align="left"/> http://www.viktormatic.com/wupwup-plays-kunStart http://www.viktormatic.com/following/viktormatic.com/wupwup-plays-kunStart Tue, 28 Feb 2012 21:16:57 +0000 viktormatic.com 2902154 <img src="http://payload30.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/2902154/wupwup-kunstart-viktormatic-com-02-02.png" width="670" height="940" width_o="1188" height_o="1668" src_o="http://payload30.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/2902154/wupwup-kunstart-viktormatic-com-02-02_o.png" data-mid="14763981" border="0" align="left"/> i was working together with nadia kammerer, matthias campedelli and our collective wupwup on a interdisciplinary concept for this years "wupwup plays kunStart" fair, held between 14th -

The constant ‘real time’ connection is changing us, our environment and the perception of it. On the threshold of the post-digital society the limits of space and time are abolished. The physical dematerialization is a true consequence. The Bauhaus industrial product has become obsolete. Hybrid objects are becoming media, surfaces transform into spaces and spaces turn into unsharp gradients. In an accelerated era full of freedom of forms and the change as a status quo I am creating an object which itself has no definite state and which is capable of interacting with the user and his environment. “www” is an interpretation of the ‘shelf’ archetype. Between form and function, between space and dimension, between a not-yet and a not-anymore it creates concrete opportunities and specific associations. Through its parts it is not only a modular system, but also a type of installation in an ever changing space. –––––––––––––––––––––– Bachelor Degree Final Project at Faculty of Design and Art of the

http://www.viktormatic.com/following/viktormatic.com/wupwup001-lux-repeat Wed, 23 Feb 2011 17:50:30 +0000 viktormatic.com 1095382 i am very glad to present this artwork for lux repeat and his first release "passing the light barrier ep" on our label wupwup. the digitally morphed artwork is based on photography from the project kiktor&vamila, a collaboration between kamila musilova and me. the artwork plays with our perception of reality and fits in my opinion with the broad harmonies of the music of the release. the release can be downloaded on www.wupwup.com for the track “avoiding you” german multimedia artist bartholomäus traubeck created a video made almost entirely with google earth. it’s a visual extension worth seeing and the video portal vimeo added it to the “staff picks channel”. see it here. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/0/7786/1095382/ww001_lux_repeat-02-01_2-02-01.png" width="670" height="672" width_o="2048" height_o="2055"
