Bringing together their respective practices, they explore hybridisations of algorithms, errors, Internet found objects and digital fabrication. The result of this joint effort? A series of 3D-printed sculptures, uncanny, yet familiar objects, between incongruous assemblages and distorted reality. [FR] MATERIAL WANT est la première collaboration de l’artiste/chercheur Matthew Plummer-Fernandez et des pionniers du net art JODI. Conjuguant leurs pratiques respectives, ils explorent les hybridations que génèrent les algorithmes, les erreurs, les objets trouvés d'Internet et la fabrication numérique. Le résultat de cette recherche commune? Une série de sculptures imprimées en 3D, objects à la fois étranges et familiers, entre assemblages incongrus et réalité distordue. [NL] MATERIAL WANT is de eerste samenwerking tussen kunstenaar/onderzoeker Matthew Plummer-Fernandez en JODI, pioniers van de netkunst. Ze brachten hun praktijken samen en onderzochten algoritmische hybridisaties, fouten, objecten geplukt van het internet en digitale machines. Het resultaat van deze gezamenlijke inspanning? Een reeks 3D-geprinte sculpturen, die zowel vreemd als vertrouwd lijken. Het zijn onlogische assemblages en vervormde weergaven van de werkelijkheid. *PRACTICAL INFO* *16 September - 23 October 2016* Wednesday - Sunday, 13:00 - 18:00 *Free entrance!* *Location:* iMAL <http://www.imal.org/en/page/contact?utm_source=imalnews&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter2016_10> *More info / Plus d'info / Meer info *: imal.org <http://imal.org/en/materialwant?utm_source=imalnews&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=newsletter2016_10> Blockchain.
