Pixelocracy : The problems of production, dispersion and progression of meaning in a mediated society
There are infinitesimal thought models through which to 'deal-with' / organise the world and create commonal and relational systems of meaning; especially that of the art-world which is in a constant state reassessment and self-awareness. The many arguments surrounding the organisation of institutions, governments, businesses etc. in the last few centuries have been affected, to a large extent, by their relationship to the development of media and communication technologies; systems theory, cybernetics etc.
This seminar and discussion group aims to explore a brief history of Media, in all its forms and guises from the printing presses through to cyberspace [circa 1990].
'The fastest way from zero to infinity' is how the 19th Century para-physician Albert Jarry referred to the concept of God but is also an adequate starting point towards an understanding of progression and technology. Other topics for discussion will include: The production of the mythic meme, the encoding of culture, the amateur up-loader as a force for disturbance, the pixelocratic description of a subject through numeration.
