and for this year, IMAC 2012 wishes to take a fresh look at Cybernetics.

Keynotes
Keynote presenters for IMAC 2012 are Yvonne Spielmann, Andrew Pickering, Roy Ascott and Lanfranco Aceti.

Cybernetics revisited – towards a third order?
“Is the world ultimately unknowable – a place where genuine novelty is always emerging? Is it possible to look at the history of cybernetics as something that provides us with ‘an imaginative model of open-ended experimentation in stark opposition to the modern urge to achieve domination over nature and each other’ (Pickering, 2011)?

Re-new and IMAC 2012 take Andrew Pickering’s arguments further into the interactive media art field and raise the questions about Cybernetic for further artistic and scientific consideration, discussion, and experimentation. ” – Morten Søndergaard
