ABOUT REFF =96 RomaEuropa FakeFactory
REFF is a fake cultural institution enacting real policies for arts,
creativity and freedoms of expression all over the world.
REFF was born in Italy in 2009. Since then it continuously operated =
using
fake, remix, reinvention, recontextualization, plagiarism and =
reenactment as
tools for the systematic reinvention of reality. Defining what is real =
is an
act of power. Being able to reinvent reality is an act of freedom. REFF
promotes the dissemination and reappropriation of all technologies, =
theories
and practices that can be used to freely and autonomously reinvent =
reality.
To do this, REFF established an international competition on digital =
arts, a
worldwide education program in which ubiquitous technologies are used to
create additional layers of reality for critical practices and freedoms, =
a
series of open source software platforms and an Augmented Reality Drug.
REFF collaborates with art organizations, student groups, research
institutions and all other subjects wishing to promote the freedoms to
reinvent their world. REFF has received several official recognitions
worldwide: it was hosted in the Cultural Commission of the Italian =
Senate,
and was an official initiative of the European Community=92s Year of
Creativity in 2009.
