In the Making #3: Kristoffer Gansing and Francesco Ragazzi

West Den Haag

Kristoffer Gansing and Francesco Ragazzi (ReCNTR) - Artistic Research and the Techno-aesthetics of InfrastructureIn this session on media technology, multimodal practices and transversal methods in the production of knowledge, Kristoffer Gansing will present his research on the shifting techno-aesthetics of moving images as infrastructure for research and what this means for artistic research. The presentation will explore the thesis of a ‘Cinema of Extractions’, where moving image technology is not seen as primarily a vehicle for film as cinema, but as a continuously evolving technological and aesthetic infrastructure for film as research. The presentation aims to rewire how we see and artistically respond to the film medium’s connection to research in a way that speaks to our contemporary moment of images as part of networks of data extraction, analysis and optimisation. It will discuss contemporary artistic practices that seek to challenge such extractive infrastructures and that build alternatives.Kristoffer Gansing will enter into a dialogue with Francesco Ragazzi from ReCNTR, which is an interdisciplinary research centre focused on promoting multimodal and audiovisual research methods in social science and the humanities.Dr. Kristoffer Gansing is a media researcher and curator whose current work is on small-scale practices, the techno-aesthetics of infrastructure in audiovisual network culture and artistic research. He was artistic director (2011-2020) of the transmediale festival in Berlin and professor of artistic research at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts (2020-23). He is currently Visiting Professor at Winchester School of Art. With Linda H. Ritasdatter he recently initiated the ongoing project ‘A Video Store after the End of the World’ and his most recent publication is ‘Homegrown, Outsourced, Organized – Network-based Arts and the Techno-aesthetics of Infrastructure’ (2023).Dr. Francesco Ragazzi is associate professor in International Relations at Leiden University (Netherlands) and co-director of ReCNTR, Leiden University’s Center on Multimodal and Audiovisual Methods. Francesco has directed and produced several documentary films. In his current collective research project SECURITY VISION (www.securityvision.io) Francesco explores, through quantitative, qualitative, film and coding methods, the security uses of computer vision in areas such as biometric surveillance, social media content moderation and border control.More information about ReCNTR here: <a href="https://www.recntr.nl/about/" title="https://www.recntr.nl/about/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.recntr.nl/about/</a>-IN THE MAKINGThe Academy of Creative and Performing Arts (ACPA) of Leiden University and Art Institute West Den Haag are pleased to announce their close collaboration in the new public series ‘In the Making’. In six public sessions they will present to the public different practices of research in the arts.Artistic production has always expressed the forms in which we know, explore, and sense the world we live in. The current practice of research in the arts consciously assumes this exploration. In the past decades the focus on research in the domain of the arts has grown – as well as its role in universities and other research contexts – expressing its engagement with the realities of the world at large.‘In The Making’ will address how artists conduct their research. Guest artist researchers and artist researchers from Leiden University will present their projects, approaches to research, methods and results. Each session will address questions inherent to these projects. ‘In The Making’ aims to deepen a perspective which conceives of artistic practice not as the sole product of individual visionaries but as a collective endeavor embedded in society. It addresses the role of art in the construction of the present and the creation of possible futures.
