HA arendtrieste

HA arendtrieste by Roberto Paci Dalò is a work on multiple formats (Interactive Sound – Video Installation / VR environment / Radio) starting from Hannah Arendt and Trieste presented during the Both Ways Italian section in Trieste (29/08/2020 – 06/09/2020).

 

Voices are the focus of the project: an immersive and interactive environment creates a real “forest of sounds” intertwining Arendt’s voice with the voices of the city. Visitors themselves become protagonists by activating both sounds and images. Everything is broadcast daily on Usmaradio and Radio Lada and an interactive sound performance – live on Usmaradio – is scheduled to connect some of the artists performing with the author from their own cities. The project was launched in 2018 at the JRC Joint Research Centre – European Commission together with the philosopher and engineer Nicole Dewandre and various JRC laboratories and scientists. During 2019 Paci Dalò and Dewandre created Radio Arendt, a cycle of workshops between philosophy and radio in Sarajevo, Trieste and Barcelona. In winter 2020 HA arendtrieste will become a radio work commissioned by ORF Kunstradio Vienna.

About BOTH WAYS

BOTH WAYS is a contemporary art exhibition that contributes, within the Science in the City Festival, to the edition of the EuroScience Open Forum (ESOF2020) in Trieste.
It is a physically polycentric exhibition, held in five European locations with headquarters in Trieste, as well as a replicated and extended online exhibition, virtually available worldwide to anyone who enters it with their avatar.
BOTH WAYS is the outcome of a European co-production project that Trieste Contemporanea initiated in March 2019 in partnership with the Central European Initiative (CEI) and with the Fondazione Internazionale Trieste (FIT), which was proposed to a group of art and science institutions in Croatia, Hungary, Italy, Romania and Serbia, with the aim of bringing into dialogue the positions and specific ways of producing knowledge of art and science.
Therefore, BOTH WAYS final exhibition in Trieste is a co-production of University of Rijeka–Center for Innovative Media (CIM) at the Academy of Applied Arts (APURI) and Department of Mathematics (Croatia); Trieste Contemporanea (Italy); Scientifica, Cluj-Napoca (Romania); Center for the Promotion of Science (CPN), Belgrade (Serbia); Ludwig Museum–Museum of Contemporary Art and Hungarian Museum of Science, Technology and Transport, Budapest (Hungary).
