Extended.Asia In Proyek Mustahil
Extended Asia positions digital-internet technology as a vehicle to celebrate limitations instead of solutions to overcome the crisis in the new social interaction phenomenon that is increasingly widespread in the 4.0 era.
Redefining the concept of liveness by blending physical orientation with the technological way of thinking and prosumer logic, this platform organizes and curates the content of the works of collaborating artists to discuss current issues related to technological prejudices. These issues are also interpreted based on the actual social, economic and political context. It becomes a method for framing the poetic imaginations of the language phenomena raised by media technology. In affirmation of the chaotic character of the nowaday information flow, the platform echoes the logic of arbitrary language as a style of expression that is useful, not only for representing something but also for generating a new kind of presence.
In Proyek Mustahil, Extended.Asia will present a mapping of their aesthetic orientation, artistic ideas, and work methods, complemented by curated footage from the archives of the collaborators they have worked with, and several interactive sessions that allow face-to-face encounters via computer screens between exhibition visitors and the people behind this platform. at cemeti.institute 2021
