The viewer can otherwise look at the very nature of control and new technologies. The lectures of Demers and Vhorn will tell about their projects and work on them.

On March 27 and 28, the fourth complimentary will be held in Gorky Park street festival "Polytech", which will combine multimedia art, modern theater, new scientific experiences, public art, discussion, educational and game programs. "Polytech" will be a giant scientifically — popular attraction, built on48 hours of more than for50,000 spectators.
The theme of the festival will be the "attraction force" as a fundamental scientific concept affecting each of us. The study of this force occupied scientists throughout the centuries, and its overcoming was the dream of engineers since the time of Leonardo da Vinci. Today - in the age of drones, exosockeles and private cosmonautics - we know about this strength more than ever. The strength of attraction is also the interaction that arises between people in addition to the laws of physics; The force whose action at least once in his life experienced each of us. This year we suggested inventors and artists to think about the direct and metaphorical significance of this concept.
The chadeliner of the festival will be the performance of Inferno Canadian artists, the classics of technological art Bill Vorn and Louis-Philippe Demoker, in which the audiences themselves are invited to enter the scene, having taken to the exoskeleton. The movements of the participants will be completely subordinated to the movements of robotic costumes: depending on the choreography, sometimes the audience can move freely, but they are more often provoked to certain physical reactions.
Especially for the festival, artists of the laboratory of the experimental ephemeral architecture Plastique-Fantastique are developing a site-specific project. At night, it will be light installation, and in the day - pavilion and an interactive Sound Art labyrinth that reproduces the pulse of the hearts of the objects of the object.
The festival program will include collective sculptures, interactive installations, performances, scientific attractions, lecture program, as well as entertainment activities from the partners of the festival.
By participating in the project of the Festival "Smell Me, Smell You", the winners will have the opportunity to look into the special lounge Absolut zone. A special laboratory of smells of Absolut Sniff Dating will be operated here, where participants will be able to experiment with fragrances of attraction and get the main prize - an ideal date best Bars Moscow with tasting rare cocktails.
The largest object of the festival will be Aero Room Museo Aero Solar, created from plastic bags. This Open-Source project was launched in 2007 by the artist Thomas Saracenovo: volunteers collect a large-scale sculpture from recycled plastic, and after they start it into the sky. Museo Aero Solar is a collective work that consists of individual actions and turns an object that polluting the environment into an object expanding the boundaries of our consciousness.
- a large-scale scientific and popular educational weekend of the Polytechnic Museum for adults and children. The festival collects annually under open sky About 30,000 spectators. May 27-28, 2017 The Festival will be held for the fourth time. His topic is "the force of attraction." This year the festival will be held in Gorky Park.
The force of attraction is primarily a fundamental scientific concept affecting each of us. Scientists investigated this force for many centuries, and its overcoming was the dream of engineers since the time of Leonardo da Vinci. Today - in the age of drones, exoskeletons and private cosmonautics - we know about the strength of attraction more than ever.
But the strength of attraction is also the interaction that arises between people in addition to the laws of physics. The force whose action at least once in his life experienced each of us.

From May 27 to 28 in Gorky Park the festival will be held Science, art and technologies "Polytech". We studied the festival program and chose the most interesting events.
The headlinener of the festival "Polytech" this year is the project Bill Vorn and Louis-Philippe Demom called "Inferno". The peculiarity of this project is that viewers become active participants in the presentation, having an exoskeleton controlled by computer.
The key presentation theme is the concept of circles of hell (translated from Italian Inferno. - Hell, geenna fiery). In world culture, images of the Underworld and the inhabable all-in-law forces are often found: it is worth remembering the "Divine Comedy" Dante. These forces possess the power over the souls and the ability to punish sinners. During the Performance "Inferno", the audience will be in power of these demonic forces: such an effect is just allowed to achieve exoskeletons.
Within the framework of Polytech, the project will be shown within two days of the festival, a 15-minute show will be launched every hour.
Comment by the curator "Inferno" Olga Vad:
"Inferno" is a project in which the viewer is given the opportunity to survive a completely unique experience. First, few people put on an exoskeleton - and this is in itself an exciting experience. Secondly, unlike the classic theater, it is cleaned here the so-called "fourth wall" and the viewer turns out to be in the center of production. Thirdly, the atmosphere of the technogenic underworld, in which the body controls the invisible force standing behind the pile of iron, is enhanced by light effects and immersed in trance Soundtracom.
The authors of the Performance Louis-Philippe Demere and Bill Row was important to maximally reduce the distance between the person and the mechanical design, to create a situation in which the participant can not only reflect on human cyboring, but also feel it on himself. In addition, it is an incredibly spectacular show, even if you do not take part in it.
"Aerozo"
Air sculptures from the used plastic.
Aero Fish Museum (Museo Aero Solar) - the Global Project of Thomas Saracene, which is updated with new objects every year, namely air sculptures from the used plastic. The idea of \u200b\u200bthe project originated in 2007. Since then, the project has reproduced more than 20 points of the world. In 2017, the Polytechnic Museum will join the World Community of the Creators of Museo Aero Solar.
Aerozo - a ball rising into the air without additional heating: the sun's rays pass through the plastic shell, the air inside the ball becomes warmer, and the sculpture rises into the sky on their own. Aerozo is not only a reason to think about ecology, this is a project about how art can transform the most everyday things, in this case - a simple package that you once bought in the supermarket.
At the Polytechnic Festival, the Museo Aero Solar team will put a large tent of plastic bags, and everyone will be able to glue their mini-aerocenes.
Trombr.
Simulator for the development of wing mouse muscles.
Mikhail Leukin
The work of a creative duet from Russia "Mishmash" is a simulator who turns his user into a work of art. The installation of TDRMK is a symbolic monument to a person who climbs the stairs into the sky to first pump the muscles of the wing, and then overcome the power of attraction. To become part of the installation will be able to any visitor of the festival, for this you just need to use the simulator.
"Trombr" is an ironic bearing of a person's desire for an independent flight.
The authors of the object - Architect Mikhail Leukin and Graduate of the Printing Institute Maria Sumnina - created the creative duet of Mishmash in 1999. Translated by S. english word mishmash. Means "Meszanina, confusion, mixing", and it is this method that artists are often used in their work, turning artistic projects in a kind of game.
Find yourself a couple at the festival!

It must be fixed on clothes so that others see from. Now you can enter the ion connection, the main thing is to find a suitable person in the crowd.
For those who do not remember anything from the school course of chemistry, do not worry. Each participant will be issued a memo, which will help find a friend. Of course, it will be possible to know what will happen with those who find their own pairs: turn into lime, energize each other or just fall into the sediment. In a special zone "
