Today was a nice day of the first ever intermediate presentations of the new ArtScience minor programme at KASK School of Arts in Ghent that started 2.5 months ago:

Some of the individuals generated during the (very basic) helicopter-seeds inspired hands-on evolutionary algorithms workshop today at the minor ArtScience at KASK.

A recurrent problem of preparing a seminar is that there are so many things that would be interesting to read...

#OtherMachines #SchoolOfArtsGent #SystemsThatMatter

Preparing the upcoming "Other Machines" seminar at KASK in Ghent. An appropriate moment to revisit this one.

That was a very nice evening in the Kunsthal in Ghent yesterday;

Today we visited the University Museum Ghent with a group of students. Such a cool place !

So today most of the "Liberate the Machines!" book was finally printed and thanks to Isabelle Vigier it looks fantastic ! Just after the summer it should be available through regular channels and a launch will follow.

Two intense days with nose in the books; almost done with preparing this year's seminar at KASK, entitled 'Vibrant Matter'.

Encountered this passage by Ian Hacking that describes the current state of my crystal projects quite well:

Yesterday was the opening of the first ever Research Days organized at KASK&Conservatorium in Ghent, loosely structured around the topic of play. The image is bad picture of Luanda Casella's great presentation during the first panel.

In a week, I will give a lecture-performance under the title "The Salt Transistor", sharing some of my research for the installation #79 that I hope to produce in the coming year as a response to a commission by Werktank in Leuven.

Nice end-of-academic-year presentations of the minor ArtScience at KASK: ten very different projects inspired by objects from the collection of the Ghent University Museum. One example is this 'phosphenes diary' by Febe de Kegel.

One of the personal highlights of today's visit to the Ghent University Museum collections was this mussel in formaldehyde.
