The crash that dare not speak its name; the xxxxx of atomic culture within radically externalised computation, outside the observed system. Modulation of the message begins, frequency becomes data carrier for an urgent transmission; of software and substance rendered equivalent under an expansive, digital universe as idea. Viral execution of the source code programming results in a series of events intensely orchestrated from discourse to noise, to granular demodulation, the slur into entropy. Hours of screenings, discourse and performance are possibly simulated, running highly speculative software built from multiple components and sources, varying modes of presentation and revelation heralding a computational revolution in art and science.

xxxxx23 introduces a fascinating sphere of active discourse rarely encountered in the UK, engaging with the rich consequences of expanded software. Key thinkers include Otto Roessler, pioneering a view of the world as interface, provide a solid conceptual background. Code art gurus Florian Cramer and Olga Goriunova magnify contemporary unleashed software. Art prankster Stewart Home, Graham Harwood from Mongrel and various ap and socialfiction.org protagonists assess an original interface, a particular world view informed by expansive life software. Bruno Marchal, interrogating artificial intelligence concerns, further opens the terms of code to embrace consciousness and the universe, as the switched entry into noise is processed with input from exploratory artist Shu Lea Cheang [PLENUM insertion with Ilze Black and Armin Medosch. Interruptions from renowned sound artist Leif Ellgren and Yves Degoyon's self-destructive command further a data driven collision of theory and practice.
