Remediácia ako perpetuum mobile kultúry

Author(s): Pavol Rankov / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 3/2013

The process of remediation is inevitable in the transfer of knowledge and cultural values from the past to the future. Every new medium is a reconstruction of the content and form of its media predecessors. The computer is a terminal meta-medium, which remediates and simulates all previous media and through digitalization inflicts their dematerialization. Next remediations of dematerialised media will happen inside computers as transitions between different software platforms. Dematerialisation applies not only to communication media. In the mode of virtualization it intervenes in different elements and aspects of social reality.

Remediácia ako manipulovanie s obrazom (na príklade fotografie)

Author(s): Bogumiła Suwara / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 3/2013

Photography is considered to be an old media, that remediated into the digital medium. Bolter and Grusin do not disapprove of the gesture of using new media within the old (subversive acting). The study presents this tendency on the example of specific literary works (from the current Polish and Slovak literatures), in which strategies of narration are obviously “discovered” by the authors under the influence of today’s image culture. Strategies of handling the photography used by the authors prove the fact that even the writers manipulate with the image in different ways. Modal framework of this kind of literary manipulation the photography is – surprisingly, like in the case of visual media – animation of the image.

Total Recall: Evolúcia pamäti

Author(s): Bogumiła Suwara / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 3/2013

Hlavnou témou tohtoročného festivalu spojenia umenia, technológie a spoločnosti Ars electronica v rakúskom Linzi v dňoch 5.–9. septembra 2013 bola evolúcia pamäti a spomienok – ako sa vytvárajú, ako ovplyvňujú náš život, v akých rozmanitých biologických a technologických podobách sa objavovali a objavujú a v akých formách sa v budúcnosti pravdepodobne budú vyskytovať. Neprekladaný anglický názov hlavnej témy „Total Recall“ vtipne odkazuje na známy americký sci-fi film s Arnoldom Schwarzeneggerom v hlavnej úlohe z roku 1990 (a jeho novú verziu z roku 2012) o takej dokonalej technológii implantovania falošných spomienok, že už nie je možné rozpoznať, čo je skutočnou a čo vyfabrikovanou realitou.

Romány na pokračování v situaci digitálního zveřejnění

Author(s): Karel Piorecký / Language(s): Czech Issue: 3/2013

The paper verifies the adequacy of the existing methodological tools of literary studies applied to serialized narration on the basis of fairly extensive research into Czech material (particularly presented in the collection of papers entitled Povídka, román a periodický tisk v 19. a 20. století – The Short Story, Novel and Periodical Press in the 19th and 20th Centuries, 2005) and judges their applicability to narratives modelled by the specific situation of the serialized digital publication.

Od biologického kybertextu ku genetickej poézii

Author(s): Peter Sýkora / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 3/2013

The goal of this study is to show that biological texts are not „texts“ only in a metaphorical sense, but in a full post-Lotmanian meaning of this term within literary studies. Genetic text written in DNA code is not a biological parallel to printed books, but rather a cybertext in the sense of Aarseth’s definition of ergodic literature. The cybertextual feature of living cells creates a space for the creation of new forms of remediation of literary works within biomedia. It opens new horizons for a literary work and generates new literary forms, such as genetic poetry. First, we show how biological texts fulfil the criteria of Aarseth’s cybertext definition, then we demonstrate the process of the remediation of literary texts into biomedia on the examples of the authors Wong, Davis, Kac and Bök.

Rozšírená poézia. Správa o e-Poetry 2013

Author(s): Mariusz Pisarski / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 3/2013

Zvrat k obrazu a hudbe, k inštaláciám a sochárstvu, ba aj k divadelnej komédii či tanečnému divadlu a rockovému koncertu – to sú smery, ktorými sa uberá súčasná digitálna poézia, dnes jeden z najzaujímavejších konglomerátov v oblasti nových umeleckých žánrov. Digitálne elementy v takejto poézii koexistujú s analógovými, pričom médiom básnickej expresie prestáva byť známe pole písma a najčastejšie sa jej médiom stáva priestor a (ľudské) telo.

"I live in a country in which the person you talk to gets confused most if you ask: IlHow do you see yourself in three or five years?" In cooperation with the BBC, I have been leading a school for journalists for many years. Approximately three times a year, we interview candidates in our Media Center in Sarajevo. They are journalists in local radio and N stations and want to learn something new. At times, I think that the main reason of their response is the English text of the school's diploma. Perhaps it gives them the illusion that they have made a bigger effort than determined work can offer in a country, whose passport is rather a reason for a gathering of customs officials than a travel document.[...]

Ich habe Sehnsucht nach dem alten Thrakien

Turkey

Author(s): Murat Belge / Language(s): English Issue: 01/2002

The last decade of the twentieth century proved to be a rough time for most parts of Central and Southeastern Europe. The Yugoslav Federal Republic got dismembered in a most explosive and painful manner, while Czechs and Slovaks made a peaceful divorce. The countries that were not immediately affected by these events nevertheless felt the reverberations and/or immersed themselves in their own domestic problems. Turkey, the southern-most and eastern-most country of Southeast Europe, seemed to be the one affected least by these storms coming from the European continent at that ti me. She aIso had her hands full with her own ethnicity problems. The disturbances in Southeast Europe were, of course, triggered by a series of events starting with the fall of the Berlin Wall, the rapid changes of regimes in eastern European socialist countries, the collapse of the Soviet regime in the Soviet Union, culminating in the end of the Cold War. Unlike the other countries in the region, Turkey, together with Greece, did not have to undergo the traumas of transition from Soviet socialism to market capitalism; it was seriously affected, however, by the political implications of the end of the Cold War. Now, as the turmoil on the Balkan Peninsula is beginning to subside, we can see that this event, which has brought a lot of happiness all over the world, has injured Turkey in probably even a permanent way.

Hello, Europe!

Author(s): Miroslav Kusý / Language(s): English Issue: 01/2002

The EU has a set up strict criteria, which are required to be met by the candidate countries: From the Copenhagen criteria, stressing the political stability of a democratic process, through the acquis communautaire, to requirements in the sphere of minority, ecology and economic policies of the governments. Besides these system criteria, there are other equally important factors: Human and civic ones. Even though the states are the members of the EU, these states are inhabited by people, who are personally touched by this change; they will become the European citizens. Therefore, besides fulfilling the required system criteria, it is important to have a formal referendum and to seriously deal with the question, if the citizens of each country want to enter the EU (this is the first question) and, if they really know what they want. That is the second question. And it is equally important to inquire, if the citizens (not only the states) are ready for this, whether it is possible to realize their will. That is the third one. This is also closely connected with the question of compatibility of their civic societies with civic societies of the member states. And that is the fourth one.[...]
