RAM (Random Access Memory) SEGMENT I — shift from a permanent state of saving to a permanent state of transmission :: June 25-26, 2011; 5:00 – 10:00 pm :: MicaMocaProject, Lindower Str. 22, 13347 Berlin.

RAM travels back and forth in time finding artistic, technical, theoretical, psychological, sociological, philosophical, political, retrospective and futuristic approaches. RAM applies them to the growing collection and overlays of materialized data.

RAM creates an environment using reconfiguration, memory testing, visualization, research, transforming, transmitting and linking stored data information. RAM creates and recreates new data and experimental ways of accessing. RAM is aware of the outside and the context. RAM claims freedom for coincidental associations and encounters. RAM is an art research project with an open end. Perceiving RAM is real time.

We will explore ways of dynamic access to stored data and view and discuss these resources as an active ingredient, which will be linked to current issues and will be embedded in specific contextual fields.

RAM SEGMENT I frames practices of archiving. During the three days of the event the archive of over 150 artists, collected by berlinerpool, will be on display and continuously in active use by visitors as well as by members. Focus is on researching the vitality of stored data by creating an open exchange of the file content. Data can be added, substracted and edited by berlinerpool members and is accessible to the public.

Further investigations through performance, video/film screenings, lectures, presentations, sound scapes have a focus on memory collecting/ tracking/ tracing/ mapping and data – reconfiguration/ visualisation/ decoding.

RAM is a project by Tatjana Fell & Andrzej Raszyk
