DISCPROSVET. Discussion disco

1/04/2017

The experimental format of the video – music conference by Uliana Bychenkova and Pavel Khailo. The format was inspired by the “Night disco” at the Kiev Biennale of 2015 organized by Olga Sosnovskaya and Alexei Borisenok together with the movement “Night”.

Post-labor world is promised on all sides, and he does not even think about starting. What is to be done? Whom and what should listen to? We propose to state our vision of the transition to the future: through acceleration or slowdown (procrastination?). How to endure the present? Work hard? Have fun desperately? Slip off and don’t take part? And where is the place of art in this process? What will help to accomplish the reinstallation: a technological leap or procrastination? And is it appropriate to have a binary dialectical “or” with a mandatory choice of two options? Perhaps, it is necessary to change it to the formula “and-and”, in which contradictions are held, and not excluded. And how many “and” should this model include?
