“Levitations” An exploration of transformative media art experiencesCurated by Maria Almena (Art in Flux and Kimatica Studio)How are contemporary artists and scientists using technology to create transformative experiences for the future of humanity’s well being? SPEAKERS: LUCIANA HAILL (Talk and Demo) | MENDEL KAELEN (Talk and Demo)​​ | KIMATICA STUDIO (Talk) | NATASHA TROTMAN (talk) | RACHAEL WINGFIELD (talk)Humans have always pursued transformative experiences consistently throughout our known history. However, only recently, there has been a resurgence, mainly through research in psychotherapy and neuroscience, attempting to better understand the processes behind these experiences. How to create them? What is their effect? And could they have a positive impact? Advances in science can now measure the intensity of the meditative and transformative experiences art can create, opening new opportunities for the future of well-being.In this evening of immersive existential inquiry, “Levitations” will explore how media artists, scientists and researchers are creating experiences for therapeutic purposes with the intention of transforming our society. Can media art experiences have a positive impact on our body, mind and our society as a whole? Can these artistic experiences help us to “levitate” into a better future?Relating contemporary art works to some of the artists from The National Gallery’s Collection who use light as a transformative medium such as Van Gogh, Cézanne and Turner, “Levitations” will expand on the role that immersive technologies should have in our contemporary society in order to address the deepest of individual and societal needs. Contributing to design a framework for methodologies when creating these types of experiences, Levitations will provide a space for discourse and new collaborations.
