testing presence and digital liveness, discussing biomedia, exploring
life in excess and the psychopathology of the digital age, and more
"We are intertwined with all of humanity, and the whole of humanity with
us," predicted Marshall McLuhan almost fifty years ago. Today, thanks to
the different forms of real-time media and networks, we can be anywhere
at once. This hyper-presence has become a central aspect of our social
practice. To be here, now, and to be online at the same time, changes
our understanding of physicality and presence as individuals and as part
of a community. What effect does this hybrid, transformative condition
of digital liveness have on the concepts of body, identity and
personality in our society?
BODY:RESPONSE explores the (post-)human conditions of aggregation in the
relation between body and technology discussing specific biopolitical
and bio-economical trends affecting the (post-)human body and it's
relation to the world. The central question for the conference
BODY:RESPONSE is: How can we understand this process of hybridization
and disintegration of body- and identity configurations triggered by the
hyper-immediacy and ubiquity of social networks? What kind of
psycho-economical and biopolitical power relations and effects are
coming along with this shifting moment of the (post-)human? And how can
we respond to them?
