STRP Biennale: art meets technology

Net week, STRP Biennale takes place in Eindhoven. A ten day festival where art meets technology, with music, performances, installations, cinema, workshops and lectures. I especially look forward to Stelarc, DJ Shadow, Jeroen Strijbos&Rob van Rijswijk, Floris Kaayk, ∆ Cairo Liberation Front ∆ en must-see Ryoji Ikeda.

The performance Superposition of Ryoji Ikeda is quite special: “Superposition is a project about the way we understand the reality of nature on an atomic scale. It is inspired by the mathematical notions of quantum mechanics and is the biggest project that the leading Japanese electronic composer and visual artist Ryoji Ikeda has set up so far. Employing a spectacular combination of 21 synchronized video screens, real-time content feeds, digital sound sculptures and – for the first time in Ikeda’s work – human performers, Superposition explores the thrilling conceptual world opened up by quantum theory.”
