Albert Barqué-Duran and Marc Marzenit, Vestibular_1
.NewArt { foundation;} has been invited by the ArsElectronica festival to present, in collaboration with the Institut Ramon Llull, one of his most emblematic works, Vestibular_1 by Albert Barqué-Duran and Marc Marzenit, in its next edition in September 2024. Ars Electronica is the great annual event of technological art bringing together more than 100,000 professionals from all over the world in the city of Linz.
Massive Binaries, by the artist Andy Gracie, will be on June 13th, 14th and 15th at Sónar+D, with the NewArtFoundation.
The piece, which was presented at the Ars Electronica festival in September 2023, is the result of the first edition of the Randa Art Science residency organized by the Institut Ramon Llull, and developed in Linz (Austria) and the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), with the collaboration of the Barcelona Hub of Art, Science and Technology HacTe and the New Art Foundation. During this residence, Gracie did a stay at the Institute of Physics and High Energy, where he was researching on gravitational waves and particle accelerators. Massive Binaries proposes two superimposed narratives about processes and interactions in binary systems. The first is made up of a pair of neutron stars orbiting each other and, finally, they fuse and generate large amounts of energy, and the second refers to contemporary society which, unlike neutron stars, seems increasingly polarized. The bridge mechanism between the two areas is the use of AI which, according to the artist, can become a tool to improve information or destroy it.

Ars Electronica 2021 Garden Barcelona
For the second edition of this multi-site format, Ars Electronica Garden Barcelona brought forth A Digital New Deal
The main challenge of the new digital is to resist the transhuman capitalist dream of the digital as utopia, and to try and compose instead hybrid, bastard, problematic, metaestable and interdependent approaches to the digital media.
These Hybrid Times we are now living in have made us utterly aware of our interdependence, the state of being mutually reliant upon one another, as a form of symbiosis or mutualistic relationships to take into account. Merging the digital and online world with the analog and presential world needs also to relate and connect with the multiple layers of reality involved, from technopolitical infrastructures to ecosocial impact.

RANDA Art|Science Residency's, Andy Gracie, Massive Binaries.
The RANDA Art|Science Residency is organized by the Institut Ramon Llull and hosted by Ars Electronica and the Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST), in collaboration with the new hub of Art, Science, and Technology from Barcelona, Hac Te, and the NewArtFoundation.
The winner of the first edition was Andy Gracie, whose project *Massive Binaries* explored the extraction of knowledge from processes of merging and collision related to gravitational waves and particle accelerators. Gracie has been hosted at the Institut de Física d’Altes Energies (IFAE), from BIST.
The NewArtFoundation contributed to the production, preservation and exhibition of the artwork created during the residency.
