a Coup d'Espace project by member artist, Adam Good:

The Lab For Remixed Knowledge

Opening Reception: August 6, 2010, 6-8pm, with a performance lecture by the artist at 7pm (@WPA)
Additional programming: August 19, 2010 4-7pm, an afternoon of guest speakers, August 26, 2010 6pm, closing lecture

The Lab for Remixed Knowledge transforms the WPA office into an interactive research space for exploring the techniques and implications of remixing knowledge. The Lab invites visitors to become researchers in our work in the emerging fields of object-oriented thought, quantum semantics, and radical recombinance.

Visitors will learn how to apply basic techniques of sampling and remixing to sources of knowledge, appropriating and adapting language from our interdisciplinary library into an open data set for collective experimentation. Together we will create concepts, remix descriptions, and discover new terrains of knowledge and understanding to explore. By donating a source text and/or contributing to the Lab’s work through simple exercises, visitors will receive certificates of membership in the first Lab for Remixed Knowledge.

The Lab will open and close with interactive performance lectures by chief researcher Adam Good, who will also conduct research from the Lab every Thursday during office hours, and post research findings online. The Lab will host an afternoon of presentations by guest researchers on Thursday, August 19th.
