Nomadic Grids – Think Tank #1: exhibition organised by Benjamin Efrati, Shu Isaka, Hitoshi Takeuchi
Guest artists: Fuyumi Murata, Naoki Miyasaka, Mitsuo Yamamoto, Marie B. Schneider
0-title: Nomadic Grids
1-humans make a distinction between space and time
2-processes which are too slow or too small are unnoticeable
3-processes which are too fast or too big are unfathomable
4-the game of go is one example of this paradigm
5- it uses a grid to represent space and stones to represent actions in time
6-stones can be considered to be cells in the living organism of the game
7-some parts, aspects and dimensions of reality remain missing
8-in order to generate their representation new models are needed
9-we call for new conventions of space and time
10-we call for nomadic grids
1 -we know existence is not born from a conventional grid space
2-we know it because we know the universe is discrete
3-reductive mathematical grids are rational and miscalculate the real world
4- exhibitions are like a laboratory for recalculation
5-the interactivity with the audience is necessary
6- such a laboratory must be pluralistic and nomadic
7- in laboratories, experiments are regarded as small scale of physical reality.
8-nomadic grids are generated without downscaling reality in time and space
9-they are n-dimensional and functionally variable
10-the experience of board games enables alternative uses of the grid
11-using deviant grids leads us to the cracks in the grid system
12- this enables the exploration of different closed circuits like a warp portal
1-Think Tank #1 basically, it’s an exhibition about the fourth dimension
2-Think Tank #1 is the first application of the Nomadic Grids protocol
3-Think Tank #1 is throwing a party on saturday 2018.09.29, you’re invited
4-Think Tank #1 brings together 10 participants from diverse backgrounds
5-Think Tank #1 is also an open call to potential collaborators
