Ho Tzu Nyen with Jan Gerber & Sebastian Lütgert
Dictionaries and Aporias
The Cloud of Unknowing, 2011, HD projection, 13 channel sound, smoke machines, floodlights, show control system system, video still.
Course format
Hybrid class
Participation
Either Fortress Hohensalzburg (on site) or online*
Teaching language
English (and some Python for beginners)
What to bring
Computer/laptop with camera, microphone and keyboard, headphones, any drawing materials (physical or digital surfaces), textual or other material.
Requirements
None
Maximum number of participants
12 on site, 6 online
Participation fee
€ 640,– (€ 480,–)
In this course, students will develop a practical understanding of recombinatory film: database-driven audiovisual artworks that create new narratives, as well as generating lists, maps or dictionaries, by way of algorithmic retrieval and assembly of digital footage. We will take a closer look at cinematic theories and techniques of montage, images situated between images, and explore what becomes possible – both visible and imaginable – when we delegate some of the creative processes of editing to computer programs.
Throughout the course, students will engage with a variety of audiovisual archives and datasets, contribute their own selections of online materials, experiment with computer-aided image analysis, sketch out concrete projects individually and collaboratively, and develop a sense of the vocabularies and grammars that both underlie and emerge from recombinatory video works. We are also going to study a selection of "prior art" in the field, with occasional ventures into found-footage film, interactive video art and computer games. Students will, in the process, develop a critical perspective on algorithmic media art and "artificial intelligence" as an artistic trope and technological paradigm.
*If necessary, the course may be held exclusively online.

Ho Tzu Nyen makes films, installations and performances that begin as engagements with historical and theoretical texts. His recent works are populated by metamorphic figures such as the weretiger (One or Several Tigers, 2017) and the triple agent (The Nameless, 2015), under the rubric of The Critical Dictionary of Southeast, an ongoing meta-project that includes online archiving through algorithm.
