Description

Member of Board of Commision, Senior Researcher

 The fundament for Bent Fausing's approach to new media has been an interpretation of the image, which one thinking of Antonio R. Damasio could call sensoric images. The fundament for images is our body. It is from this point of departure our world and our tales starts, and it through all the senses in the body, that images are created. They are not only formed by the eyes that perceive, they are also perceived at sound images, as bodily feelings, the sound of the voice, by the lightness or weight of our walk, the surface of a material...All this can be summed up in sensoric images, which are our interpretations and reconstructions of the world. We do not copy the world; we adapt the world via all our senses into different images. We acquire the world and form the world through the images, we create and seek out. We go into the world with our images, and the world comes to us thorough its images.

Bent Fausing has arranged a number of seminars, workshops, and conferences with relation to the topic of the network of http://www.ubiquity.dk/ such as: Images, Body, and Technology; Future Visions; I billedet er alt muligt [In the Image everything is Possible]; Visuality and Gender; Ansigtets Politik [The Politics of the Face] and Hvad er et billede? [What is an Image?].
