RESUMO Este é um artigo oriundo de pesquisas desenvolvidas no Laboratório de Poéticas Fronteiriças (http://labfront.tk), um grupo de pesquisa, desenvolvimento e inovação (CNPq/UEMG). Nele analisamos o caso do incêndio no Museu Nacional do Rio de Janeiro, o qual pertence à Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), considerada a maior perda de patrimônio histórico e cultural no Brasil até os dias de hoje. O nosso objetivo é discutir a ideia de “contemporâneo”, a partir do pensamento de Giorgio Agamben (2009), e a relação que podemos estabelecer entre essa noção e o museu em chamas.
El trabajo aquí presentado trae una reflexión proveniente del grupo Laboratório de Poéticas Fronteiriças (http://labfront.tk), registrado en el directorio del CNPq y certificado por la Universidade do Estado de Minas Gerais. Aquí mostramos un fragmento, basado en algunas de nuestras investigaciones bibliográficas, que tiene como objetivo reunir un aspecto específico de las artes digitales conocido como “arte telemático”. Además de expresarse a través de sistemas telemáticos, entendemos a las obras de arte telemáticas en lo que respecta a sus conexiones con las infotecnologías y cognotecnologías en el contexto de la convergencia científica y tecnológica que estamos atravesando actualmente. Las infotecnologías tratan directamente el momento de la historia de la humanidad en el que hemos entrado desde la mitad del siglo XX, una era basada en la información, donde múltiples tecnologías permiten acceder a una gran cantidad de datos y conocimientos, permitiendo un desarrollo aún mayor en la investigación en diversas áreas (GREY; JAMES, 2000, p. 3). Las cognotecnologías, por otro lado, son los desarrollos que permiten una conexión cognitiva. Recrean artificialmente cómo funciona el cerebro humano, a través de descubrimientos neurocientíficos y relacionándose con la forma en que funciona nuestra mente, presentándose como una tecnología disruptiva que permite extrapolar las interacciones infotecnológicas tradicionales entre humanos y máquinas (DELTELL; PÉREZ, 2020). Dicho esto, traemos a la discusión la idea de la hipercorteza. Está anclada en la relación entre la idea de “inteligencia global compartida” y la extrapolación del cerebro humano. Los desarrollos infocognotecnológicos crean una hipercorteza de procesos cognitivos individuales transformadores y mediadores, cambiando el modus operandi de las relaciones sociales. De esta manera, al comprender la función biológica de la corteza humana, que está directamente conectada con la hipercorteza, podemos darnos cuenta de la posibilidad de expandir su capacidad con la ayuda de métodos tecnológicos. Además, permite que dicha expansión de la conciencia humana trascienda su dimensión física, permitiendo una vinculación en los procesos hombre-máquina y máquina-máquina (GOBIRA, SILVA, PORTUGAL, 2021)]. Esta idea, ampliamente apoyada por las reflexiones de Roy Ascott (2003) y de Pierre Levy (2017), trata directamente de las posibilidades de expansión del neocórtex humano. En nuestro trabajo analizaremos obras de arte digitales en las que se explora poéticamente la dimensión info-cognotecnológica en busca de una convergencia científica, tecnológica y artística. Podremos demostrar cómo diferentes obras de arte terminan conceptualmente, o de manera teórico-práctica, implementando lo que la humanidad experimenta físicamente.
The work presented here brings a reflection originated from the group Laboratório de Poéticas Fronteiriças (http://labfront.tk), registered at Brazilian Council for Scientific and Technological Development directory and certified by the State University of Minas Gerais. Here we show a snippet, based on some of our bibliographical research, that aims to bring together a specific aspect of digital arts known as “telematic art”. Besides being expressed through telematics systems, we understand telematic artworks in regards to their connections to infotechnologies and cognotechnologies in the context of the scientific and technological convergence we are currently navigating through. Infotechnologies deal directly with the moment in human history in which we have entered since half of the 20th century. An era based on information, where multiple technologies allow access to a large amount of data and knowledge, enabling for an even further development in research on various areas. It is a development from the usual way in which we access information, making for a more direct access to a multitude of means thanks to the implementation of digitally attained and sustained databases, research methods, and communication. Cognotechnologies, on the other hand, are the developments that allow for a cognitive connection. They artificially recreate how the human brain works, through neuroscientific discoveries and relating with the way our mind works, presenting itself as a disruptive technology enabling the extrapolation of traditional infotechnological interactions between humans and machines, enabling a sort of neural network to be developed where, thanks to the use of diverse specific technologies we can build a hyperconnection amongst people, mediated by the machine. Having said that, we bring to the discussion the idea of the hyper-cortex. It is anchored in the relationship between the idea of “shared global intelligence" and the extrapolation of humans’ brain-pan. The info-cognotechnological developments create a transformative and mediative individual cognitive processes hyper-cortex, changing the modus operandi of social relationships. This way, by understanding the biological function of the human cortex, which is directly connected to the hyper-cortex, we are able to realize the possibility of expanding its ability with the help of technological methods. Furthermore, these methods make it so that such human consciousness expansion transcends beyond its physical dimension, allowing for a linkage on the human-machine and machine-machine processes. This idea, here vastly supported by the reflections made by Roy Ascott (2003) as well as Pierre Levy (2017), deals directly with the possibilities of expansion of the human neocortex. In our work, we analyze digital artworks in which the info-cognotechnological dimension is poetically explored in search of a scientific, technological, and artistic convergence. With all this, we are able to demonstrate how different artworks end up conceptually – or in a theoretical-practical way – implementing what humanity experiences physically.
