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.

Noma Bar’s Birds Eye View

My name is Noma Bar and I am a graphic artist. I do book covers, magazine covers, editorial illustrations, advertising, and do my own art and exhibition in all around the world, and screen prints, CUTOUTS, Fun! The project was started, when I went to Komoro, it's 3 hours drive from Tokyo. When I came to the wood, which is an amazing wood, there were already 6 or 7 tree houses already. I discovered that my treehouse needs to be in the high point and needs to be a view house. The project was started, when I went to Momofuku Ando center in Komoro Nagano, where is about 3 hours drive from Tokyo. My treehouse needs to be in the high point in the wood and needs to be a view house to over look the Akagi mountain. Back to London, when I was working in the Highgate wood, I discovered the idea of Birds Eye View. I found two leafs on the floor on the wood. It was the one above the other and looked like a bird. Leafs are falling down, but they are forming a shape of bird that will look out to the mountain. This is how the process started, from the simple idea of two leafs together, and it becomes an about 7m of structure that contain people with stairs, banister and terrace. I want the viewer to discover. The treehouse is build with few angles, from one angle, if you come frontally, you will not gonna see a bird and you will see a leaf. It is gonna be in different tones of green and you will see it in distance and you will see the leaf. When you closer to the leaf, when you turns, you will discover that it is actually two leafs and the two leafs forming a bird and then you will discover there is stairs to go up and to view, and so it's constant discoveries. I think few discoveries, few layers that I want to take the viewers, from the starting point, from leaf, to being inside the structure and to the view to look out
