\namberFestival is interested in interactive installations that explore
\nthe theme of \u201cNEXT ECOLOGY\u201d in today’s world.We see the theme as a
\ntool to think and work with, and the festival to raise an artistic
\nvoice. You alone will define that voice.The works selected among the
\napplications to this international call, will be exhibited at amber’11
\nArt and Technology Festival. We also encourage outdoor interactive
\ninstallations.the theme: NEXT ECOLOGYNew technologies are far more
\nimportant then ever before not only as a tool but primarily as a
\nframework. By means of new technologies and with increasing
\nacceleration we have changed the world in which we live in: we changed
\nnature, we changed our environments, we changed our bodies. We have
\ncreated a new and global habitat, which is different from where we
\nstarted. On the one hand, we cannot return to the starting point where
\nno technology rules. On the other hand, the current situation is not
\nsustainable neither socially nor environmentally.We have changed our
\nenvironments and ourselves, but we have not understood the change that
\nwe have caused nor have we acknowledged the overall results and
\neffects of these changes. Today we need to reconsider all the
\nparadigms we rely on: nature, bodies, economics, politics,
\nenvironment, and communication to name a few. In sum, we need a new
\nframework.The abnormal natural disasters, the global social problems,
\nthe antagonism between the consumption economy and energy resources,
\nthe revolutionary movements in Middle East and many other places on
\nEarth designate the un-sustainability of the current stand and the
\nneed for a change. Examples such as these point to one thing: we must
\nhave a new conceptualization of ecology as the environment that we
\nlive in, which does not exist without today\u2019s technology.Taking
\necology as a conceptual framework, which entails the relationships of
\nthe natural and artificial environments of mankind, we believe that we
\nneed a new holistic ecology which internalizes the transformative
\npower and possibilities of technology and covers all aspects of
\npossible relations among the living and non-living surroundings, from
\npolitics to love, from environments to health, from economics to
\nmedia. We call this framework Next Ecology.With the theme title Next
\nEcology, amber\u201911 calls on artists to interpret the life forms,
\nproduction and consumption patterns and politics of Next Ecology from
\nthe vantage point of arts and technology.for more
