Invitation
You are cordially invited to attend the web launch of Artbrain.org #3.

Artbrain.org #3 was created in 1997 as an internet site by artist Warren Neidich, New York and London, and curator Nathalie Angles, New York and Paris, to post works of visual art, film, writing, architecture, that interfaced with ideas generally considered the territory of Neuroscience.

Works that did not simply illustrate scientific facts but attempted to research brain matter and mind through aesthetic paradigms which generated new possibilities and created new kinds of unlikely linkages. This has had a profound effect on artistic practice itself. It has reached beyond its own history, which was formerly locked into discussions of sensation, perception and cognition to include ideas such as plasticity, networks and sampling. The result of this expanded reach and hybridization are new methods for exploring what it means to become and the underlying foundation/code of this web site is essentially about a dynamic subjectivity that is open. A becoming that is not simply generated by the materiality of the brain but instead is wrapped up in a co-evolutionary process between itself and culture what is called The Cultured Brain. As such, artbrain.org as it employs the platform of Neuroaesthetics addresses the discussion that surrounds bio-political systems and sovereignty.
