5/6 february 2016 in Rijeka and 9 february 2016 in Ljubljana at Cirkulacija²!
Participants in Ljubljana: Paula Pin ( Spain), Dmitry Morozov (Russia), Radiona (Croatia), Nataša Muševič, Robertina Šebjanič, Boštjan Čadež, Dominik Mahnič, Borut Savski (all Slovenia), Stefan Doepner (Germany/Slovenia)…
C0\P/roduced by Aksioma -> facebook event
Access to tools and knowledge that new communication technologies will bring about was at the root of what the techno-hippies of the 70s were declaring. Half a century later the reality is not quite such. People have been reduced to mere users of “user friendly” technologies – technologies to be used and not understood. Appropriating, dismantling and creatively reinventing these “tools” is the only way to resist their biases, and ultimately to understand them. Open source-code is the key to knowledge and the unlocking of technologies.
The event is in conjunction with AND Fair Rijeka, that will happen on 5–6 February 2016 at Filodrammatica gallery in Rijeka, organized by Drugo more (HR) in collaboration with Aksioma and Abandon Normal Devices (UK).
Rijeka situation:
In Rijeka, apart from Cirkulacija 2 and Radiona, there will be local artists and enthusiasts presenting their work. From UK, the AND (Abandon Normal Devices) festival/partner will bring 5-6 artists/projects from different parts of Europe (there is also a project from Korea that recognizes face forms from “looking” at clouds)…
Fair in Rijeka will open on Friday, 5th February at 5 pm. We plan to start with the half an hour project presentations at 6 pm (altogether 10 presentations), and then at 11 pm Radiona will start with the concert with their devices. On Saturday the fair starts at 10 am and begins with the second round of presentations between 11-12. Performances with devices start from around 8 pm.
Ljubljana situation:
Takes place starting from 5pm on Tuesday 9th february 2016 at Cirkulacija², Tobačna 5. The place will be heated! In Ljubljana we will have one day of presentation and a performance final party in the night.
The Access to Tools Fair is dedicated to exploring how technologies create new forms of social dialogue. The fair is a new media art and performative event inspired by AND Fair, first proposed in 2014 by Abandon Normal Devices for the AND festival in Liverpool where, much like the World Fairs of old, inventors could showcase new inventions and discoveries. The aim is to create a “Device Based Fair / Event,” a Temporary Autonomous Zone where experimental products (goods?) are exhibited and exchanged, new relationships are established, and audiences learn from the creators and are introduced to new products.
Artworks and technology will be on display at several stands, and visitors will be able to experiment and interact with them. The authors will be available at all times for explanations, help, demonstrations, consultancy and knowledge exchange, and they might even try to demystify and open up the black box of technology.
Details – The Devices on Display (DDDD):
Synthomir by Igor Brkić, Damir Prizmić (Radiona, Zagreb)

Projection Scanner
is a MIDI controlled mirror which allows one to redirect the projection to any position in an area constrained by a cylinder shape. Its advantage over similar platforms is that it allows continuous rotation in one of the axes. it consists of 3d printed mechanics and a controller board based around a Teensy 3 microcontroller board.
Robertina Šebjanič
presents her DIY hydrophones.
She invites you to fish for the underwater sounds in the waters of Rijeka and Ljubljana!
+performance
Aquatic reminiscence, features underwater sound recordings, collected in rivers and seas (Donau in Linz, Adriatic sea and Norwegian Sea ). With experimental DIY hydrophones recorded underwater field recordings are imbued live during the performance into a new sound waves landscape.

Nataša Muševic Dot
Fair: Sonorose
Nataša Muševič Dot will be presenting her latest experimental research project Sonorose (with Zavod Rampa) during which she intents to investigate the possibility of developing a zero-distortion organic shaped speaker based on the topology of flowers. Bionic acoustics being the main field, the author experiments with developing phase plugs and speaker driver surface that would enable all different sound wavelengths to sum up more accurately than on conventional drivers. Speakers shaped like flowers will be 3d modeled based on the acoustic properties of different sound wavelengths. The author opens up the debate and invites the observers to think about which flower would suit as the origin for a perfect speaker and why. She will exhibit her organic shaped speakers built until now and showcase the importance of bionic shapes used for sound.
Dominik Mahnič
DIY LED and laser dia-projectors
Mahnič will present his development on different mobile, low cost hand dia-projectors and possibility of use.

K0\P/rodukcija Aksioma -> facebook event
Če so tehno-hipiji v 70-ih letih prejšnjega stoletja z novimi digitalnimi tehnologijami komunikacij napovedovali povečan dostop do znanja in orodij, pa se zdi, da pol stoletja kasneje realnost ne kaže čisto takšne podobe. Ljudje so degradirani na uporabnike “uporabniku prijaznih” tehnologij, narejenih za to, da se uporabljajo, ne pa razumejo. Prilaščanje, razstavljanje in ustvarjalno predelovanje je edini način, da se upreš njihovi mainstreamovski determinanti – uporabniški naravnanosti – in jih v končni fazi razumeš. Ideja odprte kode je ključ do znanja in odklepanja tehnologij.
Dogodek poteka v navezavi s sejmom AND Fair (“abandon normal devices”) Rijeka, ki bo potekal 5–6 februarja 2016 v galeriji Filodrammatica na Rijeki in ga organizira Drugo more (HR) v sodelovanju z Aksioma in Abandon Normal Devices (UK).
Rijeka situacija:
Poleg Cirkulacije 2 in Radione bodo s svojimi deli sodelovali tudi lokalni umetniki in ljubitelji. Iz Velike Britanije bo festivalski partner AND (Abandon Normal Devices) pripeljal 5-6 umetnikov/ projektov z različnih koncev Evrope in celo enega iz Koreje (južne)…
Sejem na Rijeki se bo začel v petek , 5. februarja ob 5 uri popoldne. Sestavljen bo iz kratkih polurnih predstavitev od 6 dalje (skupaj 10 predstavitev), ob 11 uri pa bo imela Radiona koncert z njihovimi napravami. V soboto se sejem začne ob 10 dopoldne – z drugim krogom predstavitev med 11-12. Performensi z napravami se začnejo po 8 uri zvečer.
Ljubljana situacija:
V torek, 9. februarja 2016 in poteka v Cirkulaciji², Tobačna 5. Veliki prostor bo ogrevan! V Ljubljani bo sejem enodnevni dogodek s predstavitvami in zvečer s performensi.
Sejem ArtTools je posvečen raziskovanju tega, kako tehnologije ustvarjajo nove oblike družbenega dialoga. Gre za novomedijsko performativno prireditev po vzoru nekdanjih svetovnih razstav. Cilj je ustvariti “na napravah temelječo prireditev”, začasno avtonomno cono, kjer se razstavljajo in izmenjujejo eksperimentalni izdelki (blago?), vzpostavljajo novi odnosi, obiskovalci pa se učijo od ustvarjalcev in spoznavajo nove proizvode. Sejem je novomedijski in performativni dogodek kot so ga zasnovali leta 2014 Abandon Normal Devices za festival AND v Liverpoolu. Avtorji bodo ves čas na voljo za pojasnila, pomoč, demonstracije, svetovanje in izmenjavo znanj, tako da bodo lahko ljudje bolje razumeli naprave, jih morda celo demistificirali in s tem odprli črno škatlo tehnologije.

Boštjan Čadež
Skener za projektor
je ogledalce,ki se ga krmili z midi podatki. Projekcijo lahko usmerimo marsikam po prostoru. Prednost pred drugimi izvedbami je v tem, da je vrtenje v horizontalni osi neomejeno. Sestavlja ga mehanika izdelana s 3D tiskalnikom in elektronika z mikrokontrolerjem Teensy 3.
Robertina Šebjanič
predstavlja njene DIY hidrofone (podvodne mikrofone). Vabi nas, da se z njo podamo na lov za podvodnimi zvoki v vodah Rijeke in Ljubljane!
+ performens
Vodni spomini je instalacija, pri kateri slišimo zvočne posnetke, nabrane v rekah in morjih (Donava v Linzu, Jadransko morje in Norveško morje). Nalovljene podvodne posnetke bo uporabila v živo za slikanje nove zvočne krajine.

Nataša Muševic Dot
Sonorose
Nataša Muševič Dot bo predstavila njen najnovejši projekt imenovan Sonorose (Zvočna roža; z zavodom Rampa) pri katerem raziskuje uporabo organske oblike (topologija cveta) za uporabo pri zvočnikih, s katero bi bila popačenja nična. V polju t.i. akustične bionike experimentira z oblikami, ki bi bolje kot doslej omogočile, da se različne valovne dolžine v zvoku bolje seštevajo. Zvočne rože so izdelane s 3D tiskalnikom. Obiskovalci so vabljeni, da ocenijo katera roža zveni bolje, in zakaj.
