-24 hours before the start of Uncloud Festival 2020 A hybrid edition that offers the unique experience to visit the former psychiatric observation clinic the Pieter Baan Centre in Utrecht, Nederland.
LiGHT-UP collective, SETUP | MediaLab Utrecht, oneseconds & Creative Coding Utrecht have come together for 8 days to offer you the opportunity to visit a building never been unveiled to the public so far.
Located in the old part of the building, the works presented are the result of an art residency and investment of the premises after the closure of the centre on Autumn 2018. In total, more than 32 local and international visual artists will present their works.
Interactive installations inviting bystanders to think of the building, cells and spaces of co-existence for the inmates and the research staff during the time of the PBC. To be in a space which has been made for control calls for very interesting creative inputs, and the artists who work with that idea have created in a certain way reminiscences on larger ideas of control.
The digital era is happening. Uncloud Festival presents 8 days during which art, technology and new medium will be interrogated. Visual and sound experiments, media interaction design, computer generated design, mapping, video art, creative coding.
Added to this, two audiovisual livesets presented, in collaboration respectively with Modulation at Uncloud on Saturday 8th and Tekenen Onder Invloed | EKKO in Pieter Baan Centrum on Tuesday 11th; as well as two afternoons organised by Creative Coding Utrecht: on Saturday February 15th with the panel ' CCU x Uncloud: Art as Research'(15:00-17:30) and Sunday 16th with the CCU x Uncloud: Workshop Live Coding in Mercury (15:00-17:30).
Finally, do not miss the music programmation of the festival for two nights of sound and light experiments organised at on Friday 14th (23:00-4:00) and Saturday 15th 2020 (23:00-4:00).
Uncloud Festival 2020 is the result of hard collaborative work engaging the media art local scene of the Netherlands and participants are impatient to welcoming you at 15:00 tomorrow (08/02) for the opening.
