RHIZOME: What We Do

" Rhizome is an online community space for people who are interested in new media art. By "new media art" we mean any type of contemporary art that uses new media technology.
Rhizome's activities focus on: presenting artworks by new media artists, critics and curators; fostering critical dialog; and preserving new media art for the future."_ _*** from the rhizome web site

Biography

Founded in 1995 LAB[au], laboratory for architecture and urbanism, links theoretical research LAB[a+u] to concrete works of conception and realizations LA.BAU. In this manner LAB[au] elaborates a 'metadesign' investigating the implications of new communication and computation technologies within spatio-temporal (space-time) structures as well as their forms of representation such as architecture and urbanism. The transposition of inFORMation processes, transmission, computation and editing, in textual, graphical, three-dimensional and biomorphic forms, Meta.Design, therefore explores new space constructs proper to the electronic medium and so illustrates the spatial and semantic mutation operated by technologies which has turned into the main vector in the perception and conception of our environment – ‘eSPACE CONSTRUCTionS’. Meta.Design is information architecture as a setting of mental and behavior pattern in electronic space, where media determinism is understood as the overcome of representation (<>'enaction') and metaphors (<>structures and processes) in shared environments and their social settings. In this manner it deals with information as programming and meta-inscription, versus information as an output of interpretation - and data as objective reality rather than narration or simulation. In this manner ‘Meta.Design’ displays the theme of new space constructs relative to information processes, as the formalizations of communication and computation processes according to social, semantic and spatial structures (architecture) as much on the level of language (code, structure) in order to build up connectivity and effectiveness. It is thus about a definition of architecture like codes / language drawn from concepts of communication and information sciences with that of architecture.
