MYTH OF THEUTH comes to Salzburg!
On March 15 2018 it will be presented at this year’s digital spring festival in Salzburg. From 10 a. m. to 5 p. m. it is possible to play the MYTH OF THEUTH in the foyer of the Center for HCI, University of Salzburg. From 8 pm on, a game evening with Salzburg media artists and theoreticians will follow in Studio 3:
- Miriam Mone aka Mimu Merz, media artist, fine artist, musician
- Michael Manfé, senior lecturer for media theory, cultural theory and methodology at the program for MultiMediaArt at Salzburg University of Applied Sciences, http://www.manfe.net/person.html
- Verena Fuchsberger, social and human scientist, PostDoc at the Center for HCI at University of Salzburg, http://hci.sbg.ac.at/fuchsberger
- Marius Schebella, Head of subnet, Co-curator at digital spring, lecturer at Salzburg University of Applied Sciences, http://subnet.at
MYTH OF THEUTH is a media-philosophical board game developed by the Austrian art collective qujOchÖ. While walking through ancient Athens, up to seven people gather different media and get in touch with media-philosophical celebrities from the ancient world to the present. Vilém Flusser drives aside the telematic society ad nauseam, Laura Mulvey takes a joyful look at our memory and Marshall McLuhan finally gets his well-deserved massage. Smartphones, newspapers, Lego bricks, sleeping masks, stamps, liqueur and other media are used through twelve unique stations.
