Sixth event of the Disruption Network Lab, directed by Tatiana

In collaboration with SPEKTRUM art | science | community, and Aksioma
Institute for Contemporary Art, Ljubljana.

In the era of big data and in the context of increasingly surveillance
of corporations and government agencies, asymmetries in society become
evident. How to respond in a constructive way to the threat of being
tracked during our online (and offline) moves? And most of all, which
kind or artistic responses can we imagine, if we want to maintain a
playful and disruptive approach? Artists, hackers, hoaxers, mythmakers,
storytellers and disrupters meet to discuss how to challenge closed
systems from within, turning around the idea of "opposition" into the
one of creating distributed, playful and disruptive interventions.

A stunt is an unconventional act requiring particular skills, often
performed by people in extreme or difficult situations. The idea of
political stunts as an artistic and activist practice means to generate
criticism by "performing the machine" which we want to fight - a strategy
adopted by many hackers and artists. The concept of “political stunts”
goes along with the act of exposing control mechanisms that can effect
both institutions, and media corporations. To reveal social injustices
or misconducts by corporations and governments from within becomes an
artistic strategy.

This event proposes both to expose and to dissipate this tension through
a network of multiple, distributed, playful and disruptive practices.
The goal is to make people aware of such mechanisms, opening up a
critical perspective and a common debate.
