SITUATIONS – Fotomuseum Winterthur. Memes and GIFs, selfies and Instagram filters, algorithms and neural networks, screenshots and drone images, networked feminism and online activism, content moderators, influencers and attention economies: In recent decades, the networked digital image has spawned new visual forms and cultural practices at a phenomenal speed – with unprecedented social and political ramifications.
The SITUATIONS format has tracked and analysed these photographic developments over a period of five years. The projects Photographic Flux and From Print to Pixel have continued the discussion of the subject through educational programmes offered at the museum and in schools. Numbered consecutively, a SITUATION maybe lasted a few hours, or two months, and might be photographic imagery, a film, a text, an online interview, a screenshot, a photo-book presentation, a projection, a Skype lecture, a performance etc. The Investigative Art Collective Forensic Architecture Has Issued a Report on What Led to the Devastating Blast in Beirut.
When a massive explosion tore through Beirut on August 4, journalists at the Egyptian newspaper Mada Masr knew whom to call to get a proper investigation underway: Forensic Architecture.
More than 200 people died in the blast, which injured over 6,500, and leveled considerable parts of the Lebanese city of about 360,000. Nearly 3,000 tons of ammonium nitrate, seized from a vessel bound for Mozambique, had been stored in a government warehouse in the port near densely populated neighborhoods for years, despite warnings of the grave danger posed by the explosive material. Forensic Architecture Release an Investigation of the Beirut Port Explosion. On August 4, a devastating blast shook Lebanon’s capital city of Beirut, killing over 200 people and wounding over 6,500.
The massive explosion, caused by the detonation of a large depository of ammonium nitrate that had been stored unsafely at a warehouse in the city’s port since 2014, decimated large swathes of the city, including multiple galleries, museums, and art institutions. An examination by the Lebanese authorities has yet to yield any results or hold any officials accountable. As anger and frustration against the Lebanese government grow, the London-based research team Forensic Architecture (FA) has released the results of an investigation that details the events and failures that led to one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in history.

Cloud Studies is the first solo exhibition in Australia by Forensic Architecture, a research agency comprised of architects, artists, filmmakers, journalists, scientists, lawyers and other specialists who undertake investigations into human rights abuses, state violence and environmental crimes around the world.
Using the disciplinary tools of both architecture and forensics, Forensic Architecture have given rise to a new form of investigative practice that seeks to uncover, analyse and present evidence from the crimes of our recent past and consider the convergence of architecture, media, and violence. In Cloud Studies, Forensic Architecture contend with the interconnectedness of global atmospheres. Cloud Studies at UTS Gallery ← Forensic Architecture. Critical Zones.

Tracking the Coded Real. Part Three | Tracking the Coded Real Information-mining and the tracking of big data by corporations and governments have been concurrent with a significant switch to online communication.
Governments and tech corporations are increasingly implementing digital identity control programs. The algorithmic codes of online presence allow them to collect, store, and use the biometrics of individuals who participate in social media.

The unparalleled technological change happening over the past decades has caused a drastic shift in the perception and experience of reality. In the 1990s and early 2000s, traditional certitudes were cast into doubt indicating that belief in factual truths became just an option among a wide variety of angles and perspectives on the real. Consequently, academic discussions about the crisis of truth found resonance in the art world. True Fake: Troubling the Real in Artists’ Films runs from February 9 through April 20, 2021.
