Culture can be viewed as an aggregate of stories that show a pattern, while featuring a wide range of complexity and movement. Cultural narratives can help contextualize and make sense of our own, individual stories while also shaping our habits and ethics.
As B. Fuller says – To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete – creative practitioners and cultural strategists hold the tools needed to adapt outdated cultural narratives. They can aid sustainable, long-term change by creating new cultural models. Narratives that are thus built around a core of intersectionality and equity and that further both climate and interspecies justice, have the potential to resonate with and empower the people of Planet B.
In this panel discussion, protagonists specializing in AI research, transdisciplinary and critical art, cultural economy, philanthropy and organizational development come together to debate strategic culturing and the tools for building cultural narratives that inspire and inform change.

Princess Georges Ghika (née Anne-Marie Chassaigne),
alias Liane de Pougy,
Sister Anne-Marie of the Penitence,
‘The century’s most beautiful woman’,
‘A Living poem’,
‘La belle horizontale’
(b. 1869 – d. 1950),
Courtesan, Socialite, Spouse of Prince Georges Ghika, Novelist,
Honorary Romanian (by Marriage), Dominican Nun – A Saint, or a Reformed Rake?
By marrying Prince Georges Ghika, liane de pougy became a Romanian aristocrat.
She had so many suitors at the time of "La belle epoque" that she made suicide respectable.
Lord Carnarvorn of Egyptian repute and the Maharajah of Kampurthala, Sir Jagajit Singh, (1872-1949) wanted to marry her.
She is reputed to have told to her confessor;
“Father, I was guilty of all sins, except murder and larceny”.
She was happy to seduce both men and women (Isadora Duncan, Nathalie Barney, Gertrude Stein).
In her widowhood, after she became a nun, her firends doubted her motives and said waspishly: "now she is trying to seduce God!".
(Pougy,Liane.3613e)

Trans*Plant is a transdisciplinary project, initiated by Quimera Rosa in 2016, that utilizes living systems and is based on self-experimentation: it is a process that involves a “human > plant” transition in various formats. The project juxtaposes disciplines such as arts, philosophy, biology, ecology, physics, botanics, medicine, nursing, pharmacology and electronics. Trans*Plant aims to develop a project that involved in the current debates surrounding the Anthropocene from a perspective not based on “human exceptionalness and methodological individualism” (Donna Haraway). Instead, it addresses the world and its inhabitants as the product of “cyborg processes,” of “becoming with” (Vinciane Desprets) and of “sympoiesis” (Haraway).

捷克共和國最重要的博物美術館：Národní Museum國家美術館的策展人Pavlína Vogelová確定於今年九月來台策畫展覽。由於近年來非常廟藝文空間在國際交流上的努力耕耘，成果受到國際藝術圈的關注與肯定，此次榮幸獲得與歐洲國家級美術館策展人的合作機會，於VT展出重量級藝術家Milena Dopitová的個展【My Body is a Temple】以及暢銷音樂家Peter Wagner的表演。
Milena Dopitová是捷克境內最受國際認可的當代藝術家之一。Art in America雜誌中由藝評家David Ebony撰寫的文章曾評論Dopitová的創作“深沉而且動人！”她曾獲在紐約、捷克獲得Pollock-Krasner、Tranzit、Michal Ranny等獎項，作品獲邀參加多次威尼斯雙年展，並於英國、愛爾蘭、荷蘭、捷克、芬蘭、波蘭、斯洛伐克、巴西、奧地利、瑞典、德國、美國、法國、義大利、葡萄牙等地展出。她的作品更得到布魯克林美術館、卡內基美術館、布拉格市立藝廊、布拉格國家藝廊、奧地利銀行藝術基金會等機構的典藏。除了藝術創作，Dopitová也是一位優秀的藝術教育者，她曾在皮爾森的西波西米亞藝術學院、布拉格的材料學院任教，目前則受聘於布拉格藝術學院，擔任系主任的職位。
Petr Wagner是一位以獨奏聞名的古典音樂家，曾受邀於捷克、義大利、法國、墨西哥、以色列、日本等地的大型藝術節表演。Wagner也長期與BBC合作，錄製的音樂出現在各大廣播、電視節目以及近40張CD裡，目前幾乎每年固定發行一張唱片活耀於市場上，是國際音樂界公認的才子。此次Dopitová與Wagner將難得地在展覽中的跨界合作，在捷克國家美術館策展人的策劃下，藝術家展出攝影、裝置以及錄像作品；音樂家以音樂介入視覺影像，以取代文字敘述的聲音，將那些日常生活中外在於個人的肢體動作、表情、聲音與內在的思想、靈魂共譜成抽象的藝術音調。
「My Body is a Temple」在議題上延續Dopitová創作脈絡中對個人與群體身份的關注，提出自我如何在社會中存在的探討。作品將「我」比擬為一個獨立存在、尋求精神意義的場所，同時也以暗示、未完成的姿態，將「我」的意義向無數的隱喻和線索開放。
My Body is a Temple—Milena Dopitová solo exhibition

Opening Reception：2016/10/01 (Sat.) 15:00 -19:00

Pavlína Vogelová, curator of the most important museum of the Czech Republic¬: ” Národní Museum” (National Museum), has confirmed her upcoming plan to curate an exhibition in Taiwan in September. As a result of our dedication and efforts on international exchanges in recent years, the VT Artsalon has received attention and recognition from the international art community. As such, VT is truly honored to collaborate with this European first-rate curator in presenting the solo exhibition My Body is a Temple of artistic heavyweight Milena Dopitová and the performance of best-selling musician Peter Wagner.
On this occasion, visual artist Dopitová and musician Wagner will have an unprecedented transdisciplinary cooperation. Curated by Pavlína Vogelová, the artist will present her photographic, installation and video artworks, while the musician will involve his music in the visual images to replace the voice of narration, orchestrating an abstract art symphony composed of the outer part (bodily movements, facial expressions, voices) and the inner part (thoughts and soul) of individuals.
Milena Dopitová is one of the most internationally recognized contemporary artists in Czech. David Ebony’s article in Art in America has commented Dopitová’s works as “thoughtful and affecting!” She has received several prestigious prizes such as Pollock-Krasner, Tranzit and Michal Ranny in New York and Czech. Her has been invited repeatedly to exhibit her works at the Venice Biennale and in England, Ireland, the Netherlands, Czech, Finland, Poland, Slovakia, Brazil, Austria, Sweden, Germany, the United States, France, Italy and Portugal. Her works can be found in the collections of Brooklyn Museum, Carnegie Museum of Art, Prague City Gallery, National Gallery in Prague and Bank Austria Art Collection. Apart from being an artist-creator, Dopitová is an art educator par excellence. She used to teach in the Department of Fine Arts at the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen and at the Academy of Applied Arts in Prague. She currently serves as a department head at the latter institution.
Famous manily for his solo performance, Peter Wagner is also a virtuoso on classical music. He has been invited to numerous major music festivals in Czech, Italy, France, Mexico, Israel and Japan. He has also engaged in a long-term cooperation with BBC. The recordings of his music have appeared on the broadcasts, television shows and nearly 40 CDs. Active in the market, this internationally recognized musical talent releases nearly one album per year on a regular basis.
The exhibition draws its title from the latest video artwork by Milena Dopitová, corresponding to the Christian cultural concept that the human body is the temple where the Holy Spirit dwells and we are obliged to bring glory to God by manifesting our bodies. Treating this time-honored European interpretation of human body as the point of departure, the artist not only questions her self-existence but also explores the relations and gaps between the individuals and the society. Her works draw an analogy between “I” and an independent site for seeking the meaning of the spirit, and meanwhile adopt implied, unfinished stances to open up the meaning of “I” towards countless metaphors and unexplainable incidents.
This project is part of the Ars Electronica Garden Cambridge.
Sojourner 2020 demonstrates the means of encountering space through art-making and storytelling.

Installations, performances, conferences, from 2 to 25 June 2022, Le Commun Geneva
Renaissance is an exhibition of audio-visual installations produced in collaboration by the duo of digital artists from the Robert Turner Collective and the electroacoustic jazz music duo INFLUUT. Works of algorithmic abstraction offer a synesthetic immersion, inviting introspection and meditation.
Each day presents an event for which the invited artists, scientists or collectives propose an intervention that resonates with the themes of the exhibition. Performances, conferences, installations, and a festival of nights with sound punctuate the Renaissance complex.
Transdisciplinary in nature, this exhibition aims to provide a sort of demystification of the general notion of the algorithm. She deals in a sometimes didactic, sometimes playful, sometimes organic way with themes that may still be difficult to access with a positive and inclusive attitude.

In the context of the concrete entanglement between bodies, media technologies, and lived environment, or abstract space-time and social realities, how could we address the problem of automated subservience and ubiquitous control in order to recuperate the recognition of the right, or responsibility, to actively engage in the making of our habitat? And how to develop the means to do so?
There are many ways to approach this problem and there is a vast body of work in this domain, across various disciplinary fields. My research is transdisciplinary and combines a theoretical and practice-driven path at the intersections of architecture, sonic practice, sound studies, and the philosophy of technology.

Milena Dopitová是捷克境內最受國際認可的當代藝術家之一。Art in America雜誌中由藝評家David Ebony撰寫的文章曾評論Dopitová的創作“深沉而且動人！”她曾獲在紐約、捷克獲得Pollock-Krasner、Tranzit、Michal Ranny等獎項，作品獲邀參加多次威尼斯雙年展，並於英國、愛爾蘭、荷蘭、捷克、芬蘭、波蘭、斯洛伐克、巴西、奧地利、瑞典、德國、美國、法國、義大利、葡萄牙等地展出。她的作品更得到布魯克林美術館、卡內基美術館、布拉格市立藝廊、布拉格國家藝廊、奧地利銀行藝術基金會等機構的典藏。除了藝術創作，Dopitová也是一位優秀的藝術教育者，她曾在皮爾森的西波西米亞藝術學院、布拉格的材料學院任教，目前則受聘於布拉格藝術學院，擔任系主任的職位。
Petr Wagner是一位以獨奏聞名的古典音樂家，曾受邀於捷克、義大利、法國、墨西哥、以色列、日本等地的大型藝術節表演。Wagner也長期與BBC合作，錄製的音樂出現在各大廣播、電視節目以及近40張CD裡，目前幾乎每年固定發行一張唱片活耀於市場上，是國際音樂界公認的才子。此次Dopitová與Wagner將難得地在展覽中的跨界合作，在捷克國家美術館策展人的策劃下，藝術家展出攝影、裝置以及錄像作品；音樂家以音樂介入視覺影像，以取代文字敘述的聲音，將那些日常生活中外在於個人的肢體動作、表情、聲音與內在的思想、靈魂共譜成抽象的藝術音調。
「My Body is a Temple」在議題上延續Dopitová創作脈絡中對個人與群體身份的關注，提出自我如何在社會中存在的探討。作品將「我」比擬為一個獨立存在、尋求精神意義的場所，同時也以暗示、未完成的姿態，將「我」的意義向無數的隱喻和線索開放。
My Body is a Temple—Milena Dopitová solo exhibition
Dates：2016/09/24-10/22
Opening Reception：2016/10/01 (Sat.) 15:00 -19:00
Venue：VT Artsalon (B1F., No.17, Ln. 56, Sec. 3, Xinsheng N. Rd., Zhongshan Dist., Taipei City 104, Taiwan)

Pavlína Vogelová, curator of the most important museum of the Czech Republic¬: ” Národní Museum” (National Museum), has confirmed her upcoming plan to curate an exhibition in Taiwan in September. As a result of our dedication and efforts on international exchanges in recent years, the VT Artsalon has received attention and recognition from the international art community. As such, VT is truly honored to collaborate with this European first-rate curator in presenting the solo exhibition My Body is a Temple of artistic heavyweight Milena Dopitová and the performance of best-selling musician Peter Wagner.
On this occasion, visual artist Dopitová and musician Wagner will have an unprecedented transdisciplinary cooperation. Curated by Pavlína Vogelová, the artist will present her photographic, installation and video artworks, while the musician will involve his music in the visual images to replace the voice of narration, orchestrating an abstract art symphony composed of the outer part (bodily movements, facial expressions, voices) and the inner part (thoughts and soul) of individuals.
Milena Dopitová is one of the most internationally recognized contemporary artists in Czech. David Ebony’s article in Art in America has commented Dopitová’s works as “thoughtful and affecting!” She has received several prestigious prizes such as Pollock-Krasner, Tranzit and Michal Ranny in New York and Czech. Her has been invited repeatedly to exhibit her works at the Venice Biennale and in England, Ireland, the Netherlands, Czech, Finland, Poland, Slovakia, Brazil, Austria, Sweden, Germany, the United States, France, Italy and Portugal. Her works can be found in the collections of Brooklyn Museum, Carnegie Museum of Art, Prague City Gallery, National Gallery in Prague and Bank Austria Art Collection. Apart from being an artist-creator, Dopitová is an art educator par excellence. She used to teach in the Department of Fine Arts at the University of West Bohemia in Pilsen and at the Academy of Applied Arts in Prague. She currently serves as a department head at the latter institution.
Famous manily for his solo performance, Peter Wagner is also a virtuoso on classical music. He has been invited to numerous major music festivals in Czech, Italy, France, Mexico, Israel and Japan. He has also engaged in a long-term cooperation with BBC. The recordings of his music have appeared on the broadcasts, television shows and nearly 40 CDs. Active in the market, this internationally recognized musical talent releases nearly one album per year on a regular basis.
The exhibition draws its title from the latest video artwork by Milena Dopitová, corresponding to the Christian cultural concept that the human body is the temple where the Holy Spirit dwells and we are obliged to bring glory to God by manifesting our bodies. Treating this time-honored European interpretation of human body as the point of departure, the artist not only questions her self-existence but also explores the relations and gaps between the individuals and the society. Her works draw an analogy between “I” and an independent site for seeking the meaning of the spirit, and meanwhile adopt implied, unfinished stances to open up the meaning of “I” towards countless metaphors and unexplainable incidents.

展覽名稱「My Body is a Temple」來自Milena Dopitová最新創作的一件錄像作品，題目對應到基督教文化裡，將身體視為聖靈居住的殿所，從而彰顯自身的榮耀與責任的概念。藝術家從歐洲淵源已久的身體詮釋觀念出發，對自我的存在提問，更探討個體在社會中的關係與距離。作品將「我」比擬為一個獨立存在、尋求精神意義的場所，同時也以暗示、未完成的姿態，將「我」的意義向無數的隱喻和無法解釋的事件開放。

"Disruptivity by Design" is the title of the Ars Electronica Garden in Vorarlberg and Dornbirn hosted by Vorarlberg University of Applied Sciences, AT.
Taking the notion of “disruptive innovation” as a starting point, the Garden Vorarlberg aims to challenge prevailing, techno-economically driven ideas of future development. The increasing evidence that growth-based developmental trajectories are incompatible with the goal of respecting biophysical planetary boundaries, necessitates a planet-centric design approach, which advocates for a more holistic view of innovation. Applying the disruptive design method, current questions regarding leveraging systems change for positive social and environmental outcomes are addressed by exploring visions of community as well as the association between spatial imaginaries and material practices. The focus is on the friction zones and interactions between public and private spaces, between absence and presence, visibility and invisibility, where digital architectures come into view just as much as physical spatial constellations and psychogeographies. Disruptivity is used as both a metaphor and a format of collaborative knowledge production that brings together the perspectives of pioneers of change and the civil society with those of designers and artists in a transdisciplinary, participatory design research process to experiment with alternative models of thinking and intervention with the aim of developing transformative spatial concepts. Oriented towards a transdisciplinary, participatory design research process, this garden consists of a nomadic program combining playful explorations and tracking with workshops hosted by designers and artists, as well as local initiatives and a symposium to discuss and reflect on the approaches, findings, interventions and models developed.

Culture can be viewed as an aggregate of stories that show a pattern, while featuring a wide range of complexity and movement. Cultural narratives can help contextualize and make sense of our own, individual stories while also shaping our habits and ethics.
As B. Fuller says – To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete – creative practitioners and cultural strategists hold the tools needed to adapt outdated cultural narratives. They can aid sustainable, long-term change by creating new cultural models. Narratives that are thus built around a core of intersectionality and equity and that further both climate and interspecies justice, have the potential to resonate with and empower the people of Planet B.
In this panel discussion, protagonists specializing in AI research, transdisciplinary and critical art, cultural economy, philanthropy and organizational development come together to debate strategic culturing and the tools for building cultural narratives that inspire and inform change.
