Emil is presenting the paper “Aesthetic forces and the problem of consistency in interactive installation art” at the 7th International Deleuze Studies Conference in Istanbul. The paper is part of the panel “Sciences of the Sensible” proposed by a network of artists and researchers based in Copenhagen.
Emil speaks about Oncotype’s interactive art and design at the seminar “Digital Narratives” at Department of Scandinavian Studies and Linguistics, University of Copenhagen. The seminar is coordinated by associated professor Line Hjort Christensen and is open for students at the courses Kulturjournalistik and Kulturlivets institutioner.
Emil takes part in the planning of this open seminar at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Schools of Architecture, Design and Conservation (KADK). The seminar is coordinated by the research network ”Sciences of the Sensible” and moderated by Ed Romein.
From the seminar synopsis:
”Gilles Deleuze’s Francis Bacon – The Logic of Sensation is ready to be (re)discovered as a vital source of engagement with art practices. Thirty years after its publication in France a Danish translation became available last year and a Dutch translation is set for this year. A perfect opportunity to assess what this little book by one of the great philosophers of the last century still has to offer to architects, artists and scholars.”

Emil is presenting the paper “A diagonal plane of composition” at The 5th International Deleuze Studies Conference at Tulane University in New Orleans, USA.
From the abstract:
“In continuation of my curatorial work with ARCHITRONIC //PEOPLE ENTER SPACE for the Danish Architecture Centre the paper examines the deterritorialising force of art. More to the point, I take the aesthetic experience of Untitled 5 – an interactive installation from 2004 by the American artist Camille Utterback – as the point of departure in order to think an artistic plane, or diagram, which I tentatively call “A diagonal plane of composition”.
Untitled 5 - and many other interactive art installations – can be experienced as a play between a composition framed by the artist and an open system where movements and aesthetic effects are generated/emerge spontaneously while interacting. Encountering Untitled 5 I will argue that this type of ‘composed but still open field’ calls for a philosophical work that address the question of aesthetic consistency. I will further outline how such a philosophical work could be thought as a deterritorialising/reterritorialising interference between two slightly different planes: The plane of composition as it is defined in “Qu’est-ce que la philosophie?” and the plane of consistency as it is thought in “Mille Plateaux.””
