Another of the audiovisual documents takes up the social context in which the Universitat has been both a witness and a protagonist of the transformation process of the city in our most recent history: the transition from dictatorship to democracy since the ending of the 1970s until the 21 st century. This recording was made from images obtained in the first cartographies of the city, especially the map produced by father Tosca in 1704, which allow us to know eighteenth-century Valencia with great precision. The first one deals with the architectural space of the building, located in the old Jewish quartier of the València. These recordings tackle three aspects that we think are significant and inscribed in the own physical space of La Nau. The final projection exchanges the images, generated by the digital systems that take part in the device, and the documental recordings carried out because of the exhibition in La Nau. Far from determinism and the cause-effect relation that may have guided some cinematographic representations, digital technology operates by gaps or significant voids”. In the words of María José Martínez de Pisón: “ Amongst the transformation of this quick technical development of image, one can also find the loss of its iconic value in favour of less visible direct relations.These are shown through the visibility of the process – that constitutive redundancy transfer the signification until the connection that is stablished between partial visibilities, some even casual visibilities. We had reflected upon the conceptual differences on the approximation to the concept of panoramic from different devices and technical tools, particularly digital technologies. Inteface digitais”, a project of collaboration between the art school of the Polytechnic University of València and the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. īetween 20 we worked on the developing of panoramic in “ Interactive cities. The idea-image of the Universitat that we put forward necessarily stems from the complexity and complicity of the individual and the collective, as we are beings and institutions, centres, departments, laboratories, offices, libraries… Living spaces navigated by streams of energy that can transmit and create knowledge, drawing possible constellation which stablish new figures from the already existing data ”. The current exhibition IDEA-IMAGE-UNIVERSITAT RELOADED, even if it is new and different, it retrieves some of the matters that we tackled back then and it contextualises them in the time and place in which it is represented. It resulted in an exhibition, called “ PB 97-0335 ”, which was displayed in the Exhibition Room of the Polytechnic University of Valencia in February 2001 and in the Espace Brasseurs of Liege, Belgium, in November 2001. We carried out an experimental work with the interactive possibilities that allow digital technologies. ![]() At the end of the 1990s, we were working in R&D project, “ Suppliers that generate image-light”, funded by the Ministry of Education and Science (MEC). ![]() Particularly, we reflected on the concept of University and how, from an artistic point of view, we can offer alternatives that expand our conscience and experience in regards of this. The inclusion of RELOADED in the title of the exhibition alluded to a previous project, “ PB 97-0335 ”, in which we tackled the importance of issues related to the development of knowledge. The interactive audiovisual projection with mapping techniques in non-conventional spaces” (2014-2016), directed by Amparo Carbonell and Emilio Martínez. In these projects, they collect the experiences of several previous research projects about interaction, such as “ Amplified vision: visual tracking systems for interactive installations in the field of digital art” (2009-2011), directed by María José Martínez de Pisón, or others about the concept of screen “ Mutant screens. Creative visualization of sound” (2018-19). In this case, IDEA-IMATGE-UNIVERSITAT RELOADED is also the result of the research projects in which the Laboratory of Light is currently working on: “ Development of interactive systems for the creation and projection of image-light and sound” (2018-2020) and “ Cyclops. The projection in non-conventional screens is a constant in the work of the Laboratory of Light since its beginnings, as well as the interaction with the spectator and the technical mechanism of image manipulation. ![]()
