"1.Mathematics is the language of nature. 2. Everything around us can be represented and understood through numbers. 3. If you graph the numbers of any system, patterns emerge. Therefore: There are patterns everywhere in nature."
Quote from the movie "Pi", by Darren Aronofsky

Liquid space 02 followed the theme of numbers where number theories have been motivated to stimulate the visualization of the inherent inFORMation logics in computation and communication processing technologies. In this manner the different participants workfiles express each the different established inter-relationships of media through this common code in order to visualize its parametric and structural setting, the language of the digital media. Here the thematic frame also establishes a common vector to relate the different files produced in the workshop: period 1, in order to create a common view all participants exchange, exhibit, perform and present the works in a coherent manner, exhibition: period2. In order to stimulate the general view different international theorists and artists have been invited during two work periods to engage with the participant artists via lectures and discussion panels, on the topic of relating number theories to the aesthetics of the digital media.

Liquid space02 has been realized with the support of: Vaf, Vlaams Audiovisueel Fonds
