October 2018 - November 2018Since 2011 HARD-CORE functions as an artist-magnet, attempting to organize and attract as many possible forces from all sides of the artistic field.Where opinions most often clash and repulse each other, discourse is being activated to reach for a multi-perspective.
In the past HARD-CORE has divided its tasks in three different segments:
One is the development of the intense discussion platform, called ‘HARD-CORE sessions’ which puts a certain work or topic in the centre of attention for about two hours.
Second is the development of algorithmic curatorial methods that manifests itself in the form of robots and web based tool boxes.
The third, and most recent part of HARD-CORE, is the development of collaborative speeches, presentations and lectures representing HARD-CORE as an individual and external entity managing the magnet as an organism.
During our stay at Q21, HARD-CORE will prepare and create all necessary material for our performance during Vienna Art Week 2018.
The performance / event is titled:
Under Pressure: an evening with Skyler Lindenberg, CEO, HARD-CORE
CEO Skyler Lindenberg will give a keynote presentation on the curatorial robot ASAHI 4.0 developed by tech startup HARD-CORE. Following the presentation the floor will be open for questions and the public will be given a chance to interact with Skyler Lindenberg via a ‘meet and greet’.
