 A
          Tribute to Armin Medosch   Saturday,
          September 9th 2017  STWST48x3,
          Stadtwerkstatt, Linz   Armin Medosch
          (1962-2017) has long been
          associated with Stadtwerkstatt in Linz.  As a collaborator with its
          director Franz
          Xaver – projects including Waves-Liquid Territories (2008), Der
            Bakensender (2011),  as
          curator
          for Eleonore residency (fieldworks,
          2013), as writer for Versorgerin, among many articles, From Total Recall to
            Digital Dementia - Ars
            Electronica 2013 (2013), his presence at Stadtwerkstatt
          is deeply felt and missed. On the occasion of
          STWST48x3,the
          third edition of STWST48 hosted by Stadtwerkstatt,
          We hold a tribute to Armin Medosch. 18:00     New

          Research - Felix Stalder in conversation with James Stevens,
          Fahim Amir,
          Jaromil, Darko Fritz, Shu Lea Cheang and friends. We explore the legacy of Armin
          Medosch's work from
          the perspective of "free research". Long before artistic
          research
          became a fundable category, Armin engaged in a various
          independent,
          non-institutional research endeavors at the intersection of
          art, media and
          politics: from navigating the Baltic Sea on the MS Stubnitz to
          building open
          mesh-networks in London, exploring media piracy in Taiwan to
          contributing to
          the history of early media art in Croatia and internationally
          and to developing
          the Timeline - Tracing Information Society with
          TECHNOPOLITICS, a free research
          group in Vienna.  What
          can we take from
          his particular approach of developing a free research as
          interdisciplinary
          practice for the future?   22:00
