  CONCEPT OF VORSPIEL 2016
With Vorspiel 2016, transmediale and CTM want to continue the tradition of
creating and strengthening the network and scene of cultural actors and
institutions, which has been established over the last years. The Vorspiel
is part of transmediale’s reSource for transmedial culture berlin
programme and its efforts to strengthen the network of cultural managers,
institutions and project spaces in the city of Berlin and around it. The
network aims to connect different genres and practices for creating
opportunities of common exchange and reflection and for bringing together
communities and individuals which are dealing with art, technology,
politics and identity in a critical way.

  CALL FOR PROPOSALS
The call for projects for Vorspiel 2016 is addressed to independent project
spaces, platforms, curators and artists in Berlin. In occasion of the
upcoming edition of transmediale and CTM, the idea is to create a programme
(with exhibitions, performances, concerts, presentations and other formats)
that is distributed in the city of Berlin and its various and diverse
project spaces, galleries and institutions that are dealing with digital
art & culture and experimental sounds & music. It is meant to be a
programme for the city of Berlin, presenting the variety and different
approaches of the different cultural actors in a concentrated and energetic
format, while also seeking to strengthen the dialogue with the two
festivals. To create this link, the Vorspiel programme will take place
before both festivals and go on for 3 weeks. It will start with a COMMON
OPENING EVENT ON 15TH JANUARY 2016 at ACUD MACHT NEU[2] organized by
transmediale and CTM for and with all participating venues and
representatives of the city and the scene. 

  To avoid overlappings and develop a dynamic programme, transmediale, CTM
and members of the network coordinate the event scheduling according to
neighbourhoods and formats.

  The costs for production and organization of the various events will have
to be covered by their spaces and organizers, transmediale and CTM will
organize the communication and promotion of the programme.

  THE FESTIVAL 2016 THEMES

  TRANSMEDIALE/CONVERSATIONPIECE [3]
For its 29th edition, transmediale reboots itself with a new performative
and participatory format. Under the name Conversation Piece, the event
creates an intensive space of exchanges, murmurs, and transitions, with
dialogues initiated before the event and continued afterwards. Instead of a
monothematic, static exhibition format, artistic and research practice will
unfold live through discussions, lectures, workshops, temporary
installations, and various experimental hybrid formats.

  CTM 2016 NEW GEOGRAPHIES [4]
With the New Geographies theme, CTM 2016 aims to present a range of
artistic forms from the present and recent past in order to explore the
central roles that this hybridity and relational geography now plays in the
global music scene. The 17th edition thus aims to explore music and sound
practices that respond to these developments, and to provide the conceptual
tools needed to approach the complexities of a polycentric, polychromatic,
and increasingly hybrid (music) world with greater openness.
