展览前言:
我们的作品主要是关注人类大脑感知外界的现象,大脑如何保存经验的记忆以及想象力,通过这些现象我们可以在大脑中重构不断发展的外界现实。对于我们来说身体-精神的二元性是一个很有意思的主题:一个肉质的有机构造,它受制于时间和空间,却承载着精神,一个看不见边界线的自然现象,完全的自由和自我参考。我们寻找这个大脑沟中精神空间的边界,试图理解精神和身体这两个部分如何以及在哪里相互连接。最近越来越多的科学家宣布,在未来新型的?#26234;能机器?#21487;以跟人类互动,从而使我们的工作变得更有趣:身体-精神的二元性不会只局限于有机体中,而是会延伸到由塑料、硅和电子材料制成的自觉的人造体中。这是我们开始研究自然和人造之间的联系,以及人造物体如何可以产生一些令人认为接近于自然的现象的一个原因。在我们的作品中重现的虚拟世界是由?#33041;中境像?#26500;建的,扭曲的自然景色和被更改的色彩,以及想在画面上留下精神图像的意图。一方面带着模糊面容的人类、模糊的焦距想要表达一种精神部分的感觉,另一方面相对应的(精神-身体的二元性),我们想表现透过的显微镜看到的与身体有关的细胞图像。
Our work focuses on perception phenomena and brain dynamism that enable us to retain the memories of our experiences and perceive mind images through which we can conceive an evolving reproduction of the external reality. A very fascinating subject for us is the body-mind duality: a flesh organic structure, finite and dependent on space and time that carries about the mind, a spontaneous phenomenon with no visible boundaries, totally free and self-referential. We search for boundaries of this immaterial space living into the cerebral convolutions, trying to understand if and where it is possible to locate a point of contact linking indivisibly the two domains, the material and the immaterial. The more and more frequently scientists announcements of new 'intelligent machines' coming out in the next future and capable to interact with humans make things interesting for our work: the body-mind duality couldn't be confined to organic entities anymore but could extend to conscious artificial entities made of plastic, silicon and electrical states. This is the reason why we began to investigate the connections between the natural and the artificial and how, for example, artificial entities are able to generate phenomena that we perceive as if they were natural. In our work the recurring imaginary world is built up of 'mindscapes', distorted visions of nature with altered colours, just with the intention to fix on the canvas a sort of mind image. On the one hand the human figure with indefinite features, out of focus, is intended to represent the immaterial sphere, on the other hand, just as a counterpoint (mind-body duality), we represent cells images shot by microscope concerning the organic sphere.
艺术家马斯
马斯 (马里奥·马素劳)
马斯 ,生活和工作于罗马。他是一位十分活跃的声音艺术家,公司商标持有人、音乐家、艺术总监和制作人。他所有的作品都急切的表达了他对于声音和观念本质的提炼,而与任何情境无关。他将自己的音乐定义为移情的、意想不到的和多样化的。"万事万物的运动都被情感所支配"。他的音乐演奏领域范围很宽,从minimal techno到melancholic dub和有组织的噪音,他以超凡的方式,沿袭传统的配音制作方式,制作声音等等。他和其他艺术家一起组建了"Dsp Recordings",是意大利电子音乐领域闻名的唱片公司之一。他的现场巡回演出,主要是在德国、瑞士、西班牙(声纳)、法国和中国举行。这帮助他确立了制作人的声誉,同时也推动了电子音乐的发展,这不仅满足了他的需求,而且开拓了他新的音乐领域。
Mass (Mario Masullo)
Mario Masullo lives and works in Rome. An active sound artist, label owner, musician, promoter, art director and producer, all of his outlets are governed by his urge to distil the substance of sounds and ideas, irrespective of any scenes. He defines his music as empathetic, unexpected and heterogeneous. 'Everything moves, driven by emotions'. His musical playing field covers a very broad spectrum. From minimal techno to melancholic dub and structured noise (as mass), manipulating sounds in other worldly ways, following an old tradition of dub productions. Together with other artists he starts DSP Recordings, one of the most important Italian disco graphic labels, active in the field of electronic sound. His numerous trips performing live in Germany, Switzerland, Spain (sonar), France and China help him solidify his reputation as producer that pushes the boundaries of acceptable forms of electronic music, feeding his need to discover new music.
