SPIKE IS PLEASED TO INVITE YOU TO
"ART WAS ONLY A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE INTERNET."
A ROUNDTABEL DISCUSSION ABOUT NET ART
WITH
TILMAN BAUMGÄRTEL
JOSEPHINE BOSMA
STEPHAN SCHWINGELER

What was net art and what can we learn from it? In the 1990s, the Internet offered a chance to redefine the relationship between art, theory, politics, and the public. Mostly overlooked by the art world at the time, this art movement is coming into clearer focus as the Internet turns into a commercialised tool of social control. Moving from the currents that accompanied the emergence of net art through ideas of hacking and disruption to questions of technological obsolescence, the panelists will explore what Net Art has to offer for the situation we find ourselves in today.

The panelists include two prominent historians of net art: Tilman Baumgärtel, author of "net.art 2.0. New materials for net art" along with many other books, and Josephine Bosma, whose publications include "Nettitudes: Let’s Talk Net Art." They will be joined by Stephan Schwingeler, a curator at the ZKM in Karlsruhe specialised on art and video games.

The talk will be moderated by Alex Scrimgeour, an editor at Spike.

Drinks and music until midnight!

“Eine Art Grundlagenwerk”
taz - die tageszeitung

"Originell... Es sind die vielen Details und Neubewertungen, die an Baumgärtels 
Kulturgeschichte begeistern."
Thomas Gross, Die Zeit

“Inspirierend”
Groove

“Lesenswert”
Thump/Vice

"Ein immerhin äußerst informatives und lesenswertes Buch über einen tatsächlich bis 
dato kaum beachteten (oder angesichts von moderner Sample-Technologie zu 
selbstverständlich genommenen) Eckpfeilers moderner Musikkultur."
Der Freitag

“Though books have been written about the foundations of electronic music, this 
is the first to focus solely on loops. What’s surprising is that the history of 
this elemental structure has been so long overlooked.”
National Public Radio (NPR) Berlin
