Art Hack Day is an event dedicated to cracking open the process of art making. Between September 26-28, sixty artists and hackers will inhabit LEAP Berlin to create a flash exhibit on the theme of "Going Dark".
Our actions are increasingly mediated by data. Previously we formed our artifacts, now they form us. They quantify our lives and thinking in all walks of life, woven into a seamless mesh, a digital trace of each individual. As such, the urge to go dark has never been greater. Arguably it has also never been harder. Data takes on a life of its own as it's replicated on servers across the globe. It can't be deleted, it piles up like trash. In fact, polluting your path with fake data may offer better protection than cloaking or jamming. So while digital detritus fills the open web, darknets (corporate, military, governmental and civilian) loom large, inaccessible to the public, bigger than the internet itself. Similarly, part of our inner being is not yet accessible or recordable, and we yearn for what is out of reach: our own dark matter. Who lurks in these unexplored spaces? Can you engage authentically and not reveal yourself? Can you go dark?
"Going Dark" is a collaboration between Art Hack Day, LEAP Berlin and transmediale.
