• Studio of New Media II led by Anna Daučíková00:00:09.692
• 00:00:09.692
• Yes, New Media are not entirely new now.00:00:18.075
• 00:00:18.075
• Nevertheless, the term has an exact meaning.00:00:24.480
• 00:00:24.480
• It refers to works containing digital,00:00:32.533
• 00:00:32.533
• technical, moving or static image.00:00:37.568
• 00:00:37.568
• It covers all image techniques00:00:42.678
• 00:00:42.678
• invented after photography.00:00:48.011
• 00:00:48.011
• The term includes many things with many different names.00:00:52.909
• 00:00:52.909
• For instance, New Media00:00:58.389
• 00:00:58.389
• can be called time-dependent media,00:01:02.710
• 00:01:02.710
• liquid media,00:01:06.947
• 00:01:06.947
• electronic media, or the art of projection.00:01:16.386
• 00:01:16.386
• All this is the focus of our attention.00:01:21.917
• 00:01:21.917
• However, we don't want to define it too strictly.00:01:28.818
• 00:01:28.818
• We let the borders become blurry00:01:34.597
• 00:01:34.597
• and we don't stick to a rigid approach to media.00:01:39.205
• 00:01:39.205
• We rather focus on the image00:01:45.355
• 00:01:45.355
• used in the contemporary visual arts,00:01:51.126
• 00:01:51.126
• whatever it means.00:01:56.126
• 00:01:56.126
• Well, to talk about what we do in the studio...00:02:01.219
• 00:02:01.219
• Especially in the first part of each semester00:02:06.714
• 00:02:06.714
• we work with verbal resources. We talk a lot.00:02:12.474
• 00:02:12.474
• We talk about many things.00:02:18.520
• 00:02:18.520
• At the beginning,00:02:22.582
• 00:02:22.582
• we have a series of meetings00:02:28.650
• 00:02:28.650
• where we project a large amount of materials,00:02:32.516
• 00:02:32.516
• films or videos,00:02:37.857
• 00:02:37.857
• discussing topics set in advance.00:02:42.853
• 00:02:42.853
• We go through the topics00:02:48.068
• 00:02:48.068
• during four or five "warm-up" discussions.00:02:52.364
• 00:02:52.364
• We believe that during the 5 years of study,00:02:58.213
• 00:02:58.213
• we should make a student experience00:03:04.109
• 00:03:04.109
• about twenty topics00:03:10.398
• 00:03:10.398
• connected with contemporary art and world.00:03:14.465
• 00:03:14.465
• We deal with sociocultural and political contexts,00:03:20.299
• 00:03:20.299
• with the way they are reflected00:03:27.627
• 00:03:27.627
• in artistic creation and expression.00:03:31.487
• 00:03:31.487
• Our studio is a young one, we've been here for a year.00:03:41.091
• 00:03:41.091
• We don't know yet what the students will go through00:03:47.043
• 00:03:47.043
• but we may be able to anticipate it.00:03:53.009
• 00:03:53.009
• I feel that our main approach00:03:59.467
• 00:03:59.467
• is for each student to find their own way.00:04:03.773
• 00:04:03.773
• What they do is up to them.00:04:10.093
• 00:04:10.093
• However, we are here00:04:16.432
• 00:04:16.432
• to open different doors for them,00:04:22.594
• 00:04:22.594
• and to open them in an original, individual way.00:04:27.679
• 00:04:27.679
• Because artists don't specialize in anything,00:04:35.610
• 00:04:35.610
• they're able to grasp anything00:04:43.257
• 00:04:43.257
• and to take a stand on it00:04:48.951
• 00:04:48.951
• without getting to know it perfectly.00:04:52.451
• 00:04:52.451
• And my stand is very different from Jana's.00:04:56.846
• 00:04:56.846
• This creates a positive feeling of suspense.00:05:02.729
• 00:05:02.729
• The influence is very... OK, I'll just say it.00:05:08.020
• 00:05:08.020
• It's beneficial to all of us.00:05:12.712
• 00:05:12.712
• Seeing these two completely different attitudes00:05:20.594
• 00:05:20.594
• might move the students to adopt their own.00:05:26.532
• 00:05:26.532
• That's a small miracle we expect from each project.00:05:33.641
• 00:05:33.641
• But not as a rule.00:05:39.578
• 00:05:39.578
• We have here a group of students00:05:43.814
• 00:05:43.814
• with very different approaches and personalities.00:05:47.783
• 00:05:47.783
• During the past two semesters I had to work hard00:05:54.033
• 00:05:54.033
• to get to know them,00:06:00.214
• 00:06:00.214
• to be able to come up with relevant suggestions.00:06:05.246
• 00:06:05.246
• It's been very interesting.00:06:12.015
• 00:06:12.015
• Jana has been very helpful,00:06:16.097
• 00:06:16.097
• together with Michal Cáb in the first semester.00:06:19.597
• 00:06:19.597
• Jana has a very different perspective from me,00:06:26.659
• 00:06:26.659
• a one that knows no prejudice.00:06:42.723
• 00:06:42.723
• In a way, it stems from her innocence00:06:46.806
• 00:06:46.806
• of a young person. It's a very creative situation.00:06:50.981
• 00:06:50.981
• Her contribution is really valuable.00:06:57.123
