About event
What happens when a multimedia artist calls a rapper for coffee and proposes a collaboration based on the theoretical and philosophical ideas of Vilém Flusser?
Word gives word and image and sound. Then they run a few tens of kilometers across the Carpathians and are watched from behind the trees by elves from grandmothers' stories, which if you can't see them, you just have to imagine them. They talk about writing and painting, and the kilometers pass, and suddenly all their heroes and heroines are running with them. And suddenly they are sitting again in a cafe full of their ancestors. The rapper introduces the artist to DOOM, Dill and Wu-Tang Clan, the artist in turn introduces the rapper to Daphne Oram and Suzan Kare. The rapper feels that he has known Daphne Oram since time immemorial and the artist becomes a friend of DOOM. They tap into prehistoric eight-bit computers and try to untangle the plot like a cassette tape on which Space Invaders are already waiting. Who will win the next lot?
What happens when even the authors themselves can't tell whether it's just the image trying to get closer to the sound or just the rap copying the visual? Flusser's sampled voice in a noisy lo-fi beat alternates with rap, and the whole thing is watched over by figures. It all flows together like in a taproom, but here it's all one thing, because one thing is everything. They have no idea if the image is trying to kill the font, or if it's just the font that threatens the visual. Or do they just walk hand in hand? It's nothing, it's just Ján Šicko and Bene are in time.
Multimedia artist Ján Šicko and rapper Bene meet in an audio-visual performance, in a collage of language, time and space, rap, sounds of beats, grains and pixels, images and quotes by Vilém Flusser. Both are connected by nostalgia for eight-bit computers and respect for the prehistoric age of IT. And know that Šicko is in good shape in the off-season, because tutto Bene.
