25 Years of V2_
Reports
Wednesday, 21 March 2007

By Alex Adriaansens, director V2_, Institute for the Unstable Media

The past 25 years the field of tension between society and technology has been the context of the research in art (aRt&D) that V2_ carries out. As I think about V2_’s 25-year past and its future, Lutz Dammbeck’s film The Net comes to mind. This documentary about the relationship between science and art calls to mind a number of developments that have also been of concern to V2_. It looks at the euphoria around technology, which was expected to create new freedoms, as well as doomsday scenarios like those contained in the manifesto of the Unabomber. The Net also analyzes the role in this history of scientists like Norbert Wiener and Heinz von Foerster and artists like John Cage, Wolf Vostell and Nam June Paik. The film spurred me to reread V2_’s “Manifesto for the Unstable Media” (1987), that formulated its vision of instability as a factor in art, technology and society. The manifesto sheds light on how V2_ came to be what it is.
