The TEXTE [S-oN] IMAGE lecture series explores the constantly evolving interrelationships between the tools and spaces currently available to us for expressing ourselves, communicating, and rendering the sensory world through digital media. How do these alter our perceptions, our expectations, our practices, and our ways of conceiving and making art in order to encounter the Other within what we call eSPACEs, always straddling the line between the tangible and the intangible?+) This new edition, following on from previous ones, remains centred on questions of sensory cartography, identity, and the relationships between [Body/Machine] (Carole Brandon, 2016).
This new edition of TEXTE [S-oN] IMAGE 8: 24h/24 Flesh & flash will take place at the Sorbonne Cluster for Artificial Intelligence between 24 and 30 April 2026.
The last edition took place at INBA, the Higher Institute of Fine Arts in Tetouan, Morocco, in November 2024. We believe it is essential for this series of conferences to explore the complementarities of different cultures and their potential interactions in relation to interconnected spaces, images, languages, and sounds, as well as how these influence our constantly evolving shared territories through social networks, AI, and the web. A book is currently in preparation.
All previous editions of TEXTE [S-oN] IMAGE 7 have been held since 2011 in Valletta, in collaboration with the University of Malta and Richard Spiteri, Professor of “foreign languages” (-! in this case French !-) at the same university. Malta, located in the center of the Mediterranean, seemed to us to be the perfect place to develop—in relation to the complementary cultures bordering the shores of this MARE NOSTRUM—a new network of links around art and information systems. This time, we are going beyond the shores of the Mediterranean... Welcome to Korea!+)
