Artefact 2012 THE SOCIAL CONTRACT
14 > 23 February 2012
STUK arts centre Leuven
The theme of this eleventh edition of Artefact is The Social Contract. That term has been used in political and philosophical theories since the 17th century, but still emerges regularly today, in interviews with politicians, political party programs and debates. Even the early adopters of the social contract theory, such as John Locke, Thomas Hobbes and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, used and interpreted the concept in different ways. The classic interpretation concerns the relation between the individual as a citizen and a political entity, in which the individual sacrifices part of his freedom and power in order for the state to offer safety and social and economic security to the citizen. But what is the position of the social contract in our current times of crisis in a globalized world?

Free Software on the Surface, Behind the Screen and in a Cultural Kaleidoscope: X-Devian.
The New Technologies To The People® System
By Jacob Lillemose
In 1999, when the art and technology festival Ars Electronica awarded The Golden Nica, first prize in the â€.net†category, to the programmer Linus Torvalds for his development of the Linux operating system, it was pointing in general to the relationship between free software and art, and more specifically to the affinity between free software and that part of contemporary art which is concerned with software’s constantly increasing influence on social, economic and political conditions. Like Linux, this part of contemporary art works against the proprietary software industry’s standardization, repression and rationalization of the software culture, and instead explores alternate possibilities for freeing the software culture through more open, expressive and speculative processes.
On a more indirect level, Ars Electronica’s choice of Linux also emphasized another relationship between free software and this contemporary art, i.e. the idea informing both that software is not just a question of programming, but of producing culture - of understanding and using technology as a means of engaging in a social context. According to the founder of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) Richard Stallman, free software is about â€practical material advantages†but also about â€what kind of society we want to live in, and what constitutes a good societyâ€. 1 Stallman himself imagines an extremely collective and creative society founded on the freedom to â€use, study, copy, modify and redistribute softwareâ€. For him, the free software’s fundamental abolishment of intellectual property rights represents a chance to structurally and conceptually â€reprogram†society for the better, and this is an opinion he shares with much of contemporary art.
