berru - Electromagnetic Interference System at Garagem 180
berru collective presents the installation Electromagnetic Interference System (2021). Iteration of a system composed of a screen, a sensor and a converter. The system is in a feedback loop and in dynamic equilibrium, generated by rejecting electromagnetic interference as video in the operation of each screen. The sound of this behavior is visible in the object and amplified in space.
Electromagnetic Interference System will be presented at Garagem 180 (Rua Miguel Bombarda, 425, Porto) on the 20th of November at 7pm and will be available until the 27th of November.
Pedro Maia & Joana da Conceição at Atelier Sérgio Rebelo/Matéria Prima
In 180 Media Lab, Pedro Maia presents his work Variations on Negative Space (2021). Using 16mm analogue film as a point of departure, Pedro Maia pushes the possibilities of materiality and form of the medium itself. With Variations on Negative Space we are confronted with a body of work that begs a question. Is what we’re looking at a computer-generated image? A painting? An experimental film? While the term ‘variation’ refers to improvisation, interpretation and chance, 'negative space' refers to what is not there, what is hidden between the lines.
This performance, with soundtrack by Joana da Conceição, will be inaugurated on 20th November at 7pm at Atelier Sérgio Rebelo and will be open to the public until 27th November.
