Project Description<\/h4>\n

This unit surveys the vast reservoir of unknowns that abound in futures<\/em> looked upon from a triad of vantage points. Ranging from imagined configurations of our living environment and the emergence of renewed value in a time to come, to a proposal for better work and creation modes down the road, these artworks, documents and dialogic interventions situate the UA<\/em>\u00a0figure in the midst of an unmapped territory.<\/p>\n

In this four-week residency project, the artist-consultant uses a methodology referred to as the Erratic School that brings together three groups of five people from different backgrounds to produce a collective intelligence. The Erratic School<\/em> is a transitional space created to bridge the division between individuals and problems that exist at the global scale. Getting to know one another by exploring problems as a group is to acknowledge that the differences that exist between our respective perceptions can become the source of new possibilities. The program underlying these gatherings consists in adding value to problems by introducing a concerted delay of their solutions, and subjectifying them in an unpredictable way. The Erratic School<\/em> program consisted in organizing two half-day meetings per group on two consecutive weeks, followed by three day-long group-wide workshops held on the 3rd<\/sup> week, concluding on the last week of the residency with a public gathering held at the gallery on June 9th<\/sup>, 2011. Though the group was unable to agree on a subject or form for the public presentation, it was not deterred and opened the project to an audience, \u201cinvited to an event that had yet to be determined?\u201d on the evening of June 9.<\/p>\n

The only documentation of the public event consists of written and spoken testimonials. “On my Experience at L’\u00c9cole erratique<\/em>” by Patrice Loubier, is a testimonial by a member of the artistic community who had come to listen to a presentation of The<\/em> Erratic School <\/em>and who instead, found himself immersed in the experience.<\/p>\n

DATA<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Documentary film on the\u00a0AU TRAVAIL \/ AT WORK\u00a0collective, in the presence of the filmmaker. Screening (61 min.). Screening of both the original French and English sub-titled versions of the film, followed by a conversation. Manifesto, documentary, pamphlet, call-out for disobediance or fable, DATA<\/em> attacks institutions without ever wishing for their abolition, discusses freedom rather than liberation, proposes autonomy but without separation. It refers to a collective that never meets, a group that works under the cover of anonymity but that enjoys great visibility.<\/p>\n

Reversion to the Original Point<\/em> is a multidisciplinary installation comprised of looped animations and a drawing series that offer a glimpse into an unknown future anchored in the artist\u2019s observation of his home province of New Brunswick. Drawing on the visual idioms of scientific and educational illustrations (diagrams, visual aids) as well as popular culture (comics, animation) this multifarious project explores the contested terrain of possible futures by weaving a narrative in which the personal and situated intertwine with the technical and methodological.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
