OK Video 2015 – Orde Baru

The media arts festival known as OK Video returns this year with Orde Baru (New Order) as its central theme. Orde Baru, of course, refers to the period during the Soeharto Regime's hold over Indonesia (1965-1998), and 2015 marks the 50th anniversary of Orde Baru. As you will read in OK Video's explanation below, the use of analog technology used to control information, and the use of digital technology in providing a new perspective toward the beliefs that have been established during that era. Opening on the 14th of June and ending on the 28th at Galeri Nasional (Jakarta), do take a look at the works of 73 artists from Indonesia and abroad and their response towards the theme of Orde Baru. -- ruangrupa proudly presents ORDE BARU OK. Video - Indonesia Media Arts Festival 2015 You are cordially invited to the Opening Night Sunday, 14 June 2015 16.00 - 22.00 at Galeri Nasional Indonesia Medan Merdeka Timur No. 14 Gambir, Central Jakarta Performances by bequiet, Brisik, AstoneA, Racun Kota and special performance by ruangrupa Festival 15 - 28 June 2015 10.00 - 18.00 Programs Workshops: 3 - 23 June Open Lab: 14 - 19 June Symposium: 15 June Discussion: 17, 23, 24 June Multimedia Performances: 20, 21, and 26 June OK. Video Festival is back for the seventh time! This year OK. Video presents 'Orde Baru' (New Order) as its axis theme. As the festival's central theme, New Order will confront two things: (1) the analog media technology politics controlled and used by authoritarian regimes (the state) to build public perception and resolve their problems, and (2) digital media technology politics increasingly controlled by the public after the end of Cold War that saw the fall of authoritarian regimes around the world and the onset of democracy. The reading of analog media technology with digital media technology is intended to produce new perspectives of seeing history and the myths of public perception created by authoritarian regimes that prevail even to this day. A total of 73 artists from 21 countries such as Japan, France, Britain, the Netherlands, Belgium, Colombia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Taiwan, Czechoslovakia, South Korea, the Philippines, South Africa, Germany, Austria, Russia, Venezuela and Canada, will be participating this year. 12 shortlisted artists from the Open Submission are among the number. Three best shortlisted works will be announced on the day of the opening.
