In the context of ElectroMediaWorks_10 the collective Medeaelectronique (www.medeaelectronique.com) will host KOUMARIA_10, an intensive 10 days Residency at the foot of Mount Taigetos. A 400 square meter residency in a huge private olive field, including a converted mixed-media art studio, will be transformed this November into a laboratory for contemporary art.
Greek and international artists, theoreticians, scientists from different disciplines and backgrounds, are invited to work together and form the Instant Synthesis Ensemble (I.S.E) in order to develop a collective arts project. The outcome of this effort will be introduced in Athens among other productions, presentations in a twoday Collective arts Meeting at KNOT gallery (http://knotarts.blogspot.com).
ElectroMediaWorks is an annual meeting for innovative media art, electronic media art, electronic music and cross-over art, aiming to revive in the future the EMW Festival (www.emw.gr). Koumaria Residency and ElectroMediaWorks embrace a wide range of themes and techniques that promote knowledge and enhance the exchange of ideas and materials in order to highlight and reveal the processes of collective creativity within the theory, technology, philosophy and innovative contemporary art practices of mixed media arts.
ElectroMediaWorks_10 will revolve around two broad themes: Collective Arts and Artistic Synergies. The program will feature talks led by our Guests, workshops, presentations and performances later in the day. A dialogue amongst a diverse range of independent collectives, cooperating groups, spaces, institutions etc. will give us the opportunity to explore ideas, methods and practical aspects of the collective creative process, among other issues.
