Welcome!
Symposium: Knowledge at the Edge of Collapse
Perversionism, Anomalistics & Disruptology
With Bassam El Baroni, Giulia Bini, Joakim Forsgren, Lars Bang Larsen, Stina Nyberg, and Isabelle Ståhl. Introductory lecture performance by Mandus Ridefelt and Madeleine Andersson.
"When you follow science to its edge, things no longer act like they are supposed to. The vastness of observational techniques, computational depth and experimental systems that resist reproduction all add to a scenario where things are becoming weird".
In the closing week of Madeleine Andersson: SHOCK VALUE, Index presents, Knowledge at the Edge of Collapse, a two-day symposium organized by Andersson and Mandus Ridefelt. The symposium will explore a reimagined relationship between art and science, posing questions like; Are anomalies becoming the norm? Is perversion a driving force of science? The symposium takes its point of departure from the current exhibition at Index and invites a wide range of artists, curators and theorists to speak about subjects in the periphery of science. From their separate fields of knowledge and research the participants will present a sequence of stories, images, sounds and concepts, collapsing the boundaries of artistic research and scientific methodology.
