The lyrics of physics. Exhibition of "Life. Version of the science "on the Winery
 

When not all is clear and the body does not immediately accept - it is rather good. Symptom of a meeting with avant-garde phenomenon. As if tuned to Glinka and played Schnittke. In particular, the introductory dance robots - show "Tiller Girls" Louis-Philippe Demers survived, not all. Technological avant-garde - he did so, requires the viewer steel livers and willingness to interactive. When you visit a traditional trade show enough willingness to contemplate, to take, but nothing to share. On the "sai-arte" such behavior is meaningless. Here the viewer want to be included in the literal and figurative sense. Stand gracefully to one side, pointedly potsokat, not to dirty the hands, will not work. Meaningless. Need to wear sensors, make sharp movements before fixing cameras, read long text soprovodilovki without fear of ridicule and everywhere include brains.

The exhibition is not just for snobs. True, in this way was also important not to overdo it. Sam D. Zimin "Dynasty" with rare exception it is focused on supporting science and scientific and educational projects. Art - in fact not his theme. It's one thing when such a project come with ready-leading product multimedia art, as did the "garage" with the imported project Decode: touch to digital art (until 10 April). A quite different - to offer its own new project with new works. A face is thin, there is always a risk of bias - the possibility of art to fall in the "Technical Museum" and "visual aids" for lessons in physics and biology. Now I can exhale - the whole project did not go to the didactic manner.

Visitors meets spectacular sculpture program "Model biometric reflections" Demetrius and Helena Kawarga - a new, complicated thing, especially for this exhibition. It provides multiple interfaces - the connection points of spectators. Sensors read the blood flow rate or the activity of the cerebral hemispheres, or electrical activity. Depending on the parameters at the entrance inside a transparent plastic shell servos drive the complex sculptural design: Rubber beating "heart" move "thread" and "ropes". This, incidentally, is perhaps the only object that will not be completely lost in case of power failure. Motion stops, but the plastic component does not bleed.

Among the most visually-attractive object can be noted 3D-installation "A dynamic model of the cell, Vladimir Grieg - the ball, which are projected close-ups of stem cells. It is not static, and the film that illustrates the processes occurring at the membrane surface. But even without knowing the background, you can get a visual pleasure - who could compete with the nature of inventiveness.

Of the projects of international fame can not ignore
robotic sculpture by German artist Ralf Becker (Ralf Baecker) «Space Computing" - a thinking fabric, web space, with wooden frames, with many servos. One of the leaders of the gaming genre is likely to become well-known multimedia installation Sniff. It is a computer projection of a live dog, created by Caroline Sobechkoy. Camera tracks the movement of the audience and give a response dog - from sniffing to aggression. However, the dog is fairly balanced.

In the exhibition, which runs until April 17, 2011, exhibited 28 works by artists from around the world, performed with the assistance of scientific advisors. If you are going to hike to expect that the exhibition is not a "fast". Need to rely on the hour and a half of intellectual work. And probably not in one go. Get ready, that love is not everything - and it is absolutely normal. Artists today grope towards a future arts and the avant-garde is always challenging. Such is his life - not a version of science.

Life. Version of science. Sketches from the exhibition
 

Life.
Version of science.
Sketches from the show.

Well, that looks nice.
A model of a cell and beautiful.
Since snails are not very clear, they are alive?

Alive all alive.
And the neighbors they have - little mice White laboratory.

Looks good also because there are very dobrotnvy architectural design.
Our guys have been doing.

And I think on the contrary , it looks archaic : wires , LEDs, and darkness . Interactivity is no surprise , at Disney much more effective , honest . :) " judging by the photos , but something about the desire to visit arose.
I'm very curious how everything turned out in an updated planetarium , an opening that seems to again put off , and if Vladimir made ​​a report and shared his impressions ... Maybe I 'm wrong , but I think there will be more interesting .

I understand your irony , the theme of sci-art requires effort . As with everything new in the beginning. Yet even it is unclear where all taxied . Interactivity can reach beyond the limits , but it can limit how cloning . I can only say that the interactivity in this case is not the main thing . And not even the technical realization of ( a jeweler or promdizayner make steeper ) . It sounds pompous , but involves the flight of thought , the direction of intellectual work. People are digging into the future .
In general, we must live up to serious investment in video, multimedia, interactive .

And about the planetarium (but not Moscow ), I can share my experiences - in the eighties my father taught there :)

It is as if the student's mother an English teacher , then my son should know the language for five . In our class , by the way , this rule has not worked , and two classmates from the mother in the same school barely able to deuce in the top three .

But I so digress . If we return to the " future " and " planetarium "question :
- In 2012, on the Mayan calendar (according to the extremists of history) will come to an end. And supposedly because what happens :
Who are close to astranomii there any truth here ?

Sounds helluva lot too obscurantist :) "By the same meaning for so long guessing?
Well nobody knows anything for sure not.
Tack as Kiriyenko to Fukushima.
And as the art in this subject "floats" more spectacular science.

Though offtopic , but the answer came as follows:
